The present invention discloses a fluorine-modified epoxy acrylic resin, an UV-curable varnish and a method for preparing the same, and a method for coating the varnish on a substrate. The fluorine-modified epoxy acrylic resin is prepared by a process including the following steps: generating an epoxy acrylic resin via a ring-opening esterification reaction between an unsaturated mono-carboxylic acid and at least one epoxy group in an epoxy resin; and generating an epoxy acrylic resin containing fluorinated side groups via an esterification reaction between a fluorocarboxylic acid or a fluorocarboxylic acid anhydride and at least one hydroxy group in the epoxy acrylic resin. The UV-curable varnish according to the invention is prepared based on the fluorine-modified epoxy acrylic resin. When the varnish is applied to the surface of a substrate, at least one performance of the material, thereby the service life of the material itself may be improved.

The present invention relates to a modified epoxy acrylate and a method for producing the same, a photoresist composition and a method for producing the same, and a transparent photoresist formed from the photoresist composition. The modified epoxy acrylate is an epoxy acrylate modified with phosphate monomer which has a structure represented by Formula I ##STR00001## wherein, n is an integer selected from 1˜21, R is a short-chain carboxylic acid ester group having the structural formula ##STR00002##  in which p is a bivalent saturated or unsaturated carbon chain having 1˜10 carbon atoms, and the carbon chain is optionally substituted by alkyl, alkenyl, hydroxy, nitro or halogen. Since the phosphate can react with the multi-valence metal in substrates so as to connect the polymer onto the substrates firmly through covalent bonds, therefore the adhesion force is improved significantly and the protective function of the tranparent photoresist is improved accordingly.

This invention outlines a method for synthesizing a blended resin system in a one pot reaction that may utilize, for example, bio-based anhydrosugars such as isosorbide as a principle component to produce isosorbide dimethacrylate and other monomeric materials for thermosetting applications. This invention establishes a one-pot procedure for reacting a hydroxy group containing compound with methacrylic anhydride in the first step and using the by-product methacrylic acid to react with glycidyl ethers to form additional methacrylate compounds in the second step. This methodology can be formulated to produce a wide array of resin systems that have controlled ratios of hydroxy group containing compound/crosslinker/reactive diluent. Additionally, the novel resin systems may be partially to fully biobased, promoting global sustainability and reducing costs, and when free radically polymerized have properties that meet or exceed their petroleum derived counterparts.
