Resin composition, coating composition and article by using the same

Abstract

An epoxy resin composition comprising a blend of at least (i) at least one epoxy group containing a polycyclic group, and (ii) at least one epoxy group that is different from the epoxy resin in component (i). As exemplary of component (i) is an epoxidized tricyclo decanedimethanol. A renewable epoxy of component (ii) is cardanol epoxy, derived from cashew nut shell oil (CNSL). Optionally, a component (iii) which is any other epoxy from that of (i) and (ii) can be included, such as Bisphenol-A/F diglycidal ether. The blend is characterized by low viscosity, making it amenable to airless spray application, high solids content and excellent solvent resistance and abrasion resistance.
