The present invention discloses modified epoxy acrylates and the solder resist containing the epoxy modified acrylates, belonging to the synthetic resin field. In this invention, modified epoxy acrylates are prepared by introducing long fatty hydrocarbon chain as the branched chain into the carboxylated epoxy acrylates. The as-prepared solder resist containing this modified epoxy acrylates maintains the excellent property of photosensitive solder resist such as good adhesion, hardness, solvent resistance and weather resistance which facilities sensitivity and alkaline development during exposure simultaneously. This has led to good water resistance, electrical insulation of the cured products. Furthermore, the cured product also shows good flexibility which improves its application in photosensitive imaging ink materials.

The invention provides highly functional epoxy resins that may be used themselves in coating formulations and applications but which may be further functionalized via ring-opening reactions of the epoxy groups yielding derivative resins with other useful functionalities. The highly functional epoxy resins are synthesized from the epoxidation of vegetable or seed oil esters of polyols having 4 or more hydroxyl groups/molecule. In one embodiment, the polyol is sucrose and the vegetable or seed oil is selected from corn oil, castor oil, soybean oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, linseed oil, tall oil fatty acid, tung oil, vernonia oil, and mixtures thereof. Methods of making of the epoxy resin and each of its derivative resins are disclosed as are coating compositions and coated objects using each of the resins.

Epoxy resin composition comprising a) the reaction product formed from a1) one or more epoxy compounds having at least two epoxy groups, and a2) 0.2 to 0.9 mol of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid or mixtures thereof per mole of epoxy groups, as component A; b) a solvent comprising vinyl groups as component B.
