A method of obtaining hybrid polyhydroxyurethane compositions cross-linked at ambient temperatures. The method comprises: (a) reacting epoxidized unsaturated fatty acid triglycerides with carbon dioxide in the presence of a catalyst to obtain carbonated-epoxidized unsaturated fatty acid triglycerides, wherein conversion of oxyrane groups to 2-oxo-1,3-dioxolane groups (cyclic carbonate groups) for said carbonated-epoxidized unsaturated fatty acid triglycerides ranges from 35% to 85%; (b) mixing and reacting the carbonated-epoxidized unsaturated fatty acid triglycerides with a compound having amine functionality comprising at least one primary amine group realized at stoichiometric or within nearly balanced stoichiometry; (c) mixing and reacting the product of step (b) with a compound having amine functionality comprising at least two primary amine groups realized at excess of an amine-functional compound; (d) subsequently mixing the product of step (c) with a compound having amino-reactive groups.

Disclosed is a novel epoxy-amine composition modified a hydroxyalkyl urethane, which is obtained as a result of a reaction between a primary amine (C) and a monocyclocarbonate (C), wherein modifier (C) is represented by the following formula (1): wherein Ris a residue of the primary amine, Rand Rare the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of H, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl, and n satisfies the following condition: n&#x2267;2. Diluents, pigments and additives can be used. Doping with the hydroxyalkyl-urethane modifier imparts to the cured composition superior coating performance characteristics, such as pot-life/drying, strength-stress, bonding, appearance, resistance to abrasion and solvents, etc., in a well-balanced state.

Epoxy-amine composition modified with hydroxyalkyl urethane

A nanostructured hybrid liquid oligomer composition including at least one epoxy-functional component (A), at least one cyclic carbonate component (B), at least one amine-functional component (C), and, optionally, at least one acrylate (methacrylate) functional component (D), wherein at least one epoxy, amine, or acrylate (methacrylate) component contains alkoxysilane units. The composition is highly curable at low temperatures (approximately 10 to 30&#xb0; C.) with forming of nanostructure under the influence of atmospheric moisture and the forming of active, specific hydroxyl groups by reaction of cyclic carbonates with amine functionalities. According to the present invention, the cured composition has excellent strength-stress properties, adhesion to a variety of substrates, appearance, and resistance to weathering, abrasion, and solvents.
