Development of eco-friendly coating materials from renewable resources with special properties has attracted great attention in recent years. Among the renewable resources, Cardanol, a phenol derivative, has great advantages due to its unique properties such as improved flexibility and better processability comparing with commercial phenolic resins. Herein, a new eco-friendly polymer was synthesized from a cardanol. Synthesized polymer can be self-crosslinked by UV to form a transparent and highly glossy film without adding any toxic metallic crosslinkers. With antimicrobial property against P. aeruginosa and E. coli as well as good mechanical properties, this polymer is supposed to be a promising candidate for a surface coating material in near future. |
