In this investigation, polyetheramide resin was prepared through the condensation polymerization of N,N-bis (2-hydroxyethyl) cottonseed oil fatty amide (HECOFA) with bisphenol-A. It was further modified by 2,4-toluene diisocyanate (TDI) in 10-30 wt% of polyetheramide to develop a series of moisture curing urethane-modified polyetheramide resins (UMCOPEtA). The synthesized resin was characterized using H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, FTIR and solubility in various organic solvents at room temperature. The thermal and curing behavior of the resin was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetric techniques. The physico-chemical properties such as hydroxyl value, iodine value, specific gravity and mechanical properties like scratch hardness, impact, and flexibility were determined by standard laboratory methods. Coatings of UMCOPEtA resin were prepared on mild steel panels to evaluate chemical resistance performance against acid, alkali, water and xylene. The newly developed UMCOPEtA coatings showed improved hardness, impact, gloss, water and chemical resistance when compared with unmodified polyetheramide coatings, and thus were found to be suitable as a high performance coating material.
