Synthesis and Characterization of Boron Modified Poly(ester amide) Derived from Jatropha Curcas Seed Oil

Abstract

Syntheses of practicable polymeric materials from the spectrum of natural renewable resource not only reduce the dependency on petrochemical but also help in environmental balance. Utilization of non-traditional and non-edible vegetable oils in polymer syntheses solves the waste disposal as well as maintains the equilibrium of demand and availability of raw materials. Jatropha curcas seed oil (JCSO) a renewable resource abundantly available utilized in synthesis of boron modified polyesteramide resin (JCBPEA). N,N-bis(2-hydroxy ethyl) Jatropha curcas fatty amide (HEJCA) was synthesize by aminolysis of JCSO with diethanolamine. HEJCA a diol condensed with phthalic acid to yield Jatropha curcas polyesteramide (JCPEA). To improve the performances and utility of JCPEA boron was incorporated in the polymer backbone to obtained Boron modified polyesteramide (JCBPEA). JCBPEA characterized by the measurement of physicochemical properties like specific gravity, refractive index, acid value, iodine value, soponification value. The structural elucidation of resin was carried out by spectral analyses.

Urethane-Modified Boron Containing Polyesteramide of Phthalic Acid from Jatropha Curcas Seed Oil

“…In our earlier publications we have attempted to synthesize the polyesteramide (JCPEA) and boron containing polyesteramide (JCBPEA) from this seed oil 12,13 . Polyesteramide resins are amide modified alkyd known for improved performances over traditional alkyds.…”

“…Polyesteramide resins are amide modified alkyd known for improved performances over traditional alkyds. The performances of the resin further improved significantly by incorporating the boron 12 . Curing of the JCPEA and JCBPEA at elevated temperature restrict their applications in many cases especially where baking is not possible.…”
