Abstract

Abstract A diglycidyl ether of a diphenol, such as a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A, is reacted with bisphenol S to form a chain-extended epoxy resin. This chain-extended epoxy resin is then esterified with a fatty acid derived from a drying oil, such as linseed oil fatty acid. The resulting epoxy resin ester is cut with a solvent for use as a rapid drying coating material. A primer using this material is also disclosed.

Claim 1
Independent Claim 104 words
A rapid drying epoxy resin ester comprising: the reaction product of A. about 25 to about 50% (based on total solids) of a drying oil-derived fatty acid; and B. chain-extended epoxy resin consisting of the reaction product of 1. diglycidyl ether of a diphenol; and 2. bisphenol S, where the percentage of diglycidyl ether of a diphenol in said chain-extended epoxy resin is X and the percentage of bisphenol S in said chain-extended epoxy resin is 100-X, where ##EQU2## and E R is between about 600 and about 2000 and E D is the epoxy equivalent weight of said diglycidyl ether of a diphenol.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 104 words
A rapid drying epoxy resin ester comprising: the reaction product of A. about 25 to about 50% (based on total solids) of a drying oil-derived fatty acid; and B. chain-extended epoxy resin consisting of the reaction product of 1. diglycidyl ether of a diphenol; and 2. bisphenol S, where the percentage of diglycidyl ether of a diphenol in said chain-extended epoxy resin is X and the percentage of bisphenol S in said chain-extended epoxy resin is 100-X, where ##EQU2## and E R is between about 600 and about 2000 and E D is the epoxy equivalent weight of said diglycidyl ether of a diphenol.
