Abstract

Number of diethanol amides has been developed by scientist using various vegetable oils and not from neem seed oil. Most of the research work on neem seed oil has explored its applications in pharmaceutical and pesticides fields. This paper representing new area of application of neem seed oil for polymeric resin, in which we attempted to synthesize the neem seed oil based poly(urethane fatty amides) by reaction of neem oil fatty amide (AIJFA) with trimer of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI). Spectral study of AIJFA was carried out by using FT-IR and 1H NMR techniques. Molecular weight of AIJFA was determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Fatty acid composition of neem seed oil was obtained by gas chromatographic method. The coatings applied on mild steel plates were evaluated by determining coating properties, chemical and corrosion resistances. TGA study of coatings showed higher thermal stability to AIJFA based PU coatings compared to normal urethane and alkyd coatings.
