Novel UV curable polyurethanes from glycidyl carbamate (GC) resins

摘要

Dean Webster's group at North Dakota State University have published a number of developments with respect to glycidyl carbamate (GC) resins, produced from the reaction of glycidol and an isocyanate-functional material, over recent years. The combination of urethane and epoxy-functional groups offers many attractive properties. This paper describes the synthesis of GC acrylates for UV curable coatings.
