This invention belongs to the field of synthetic bio-based waterborne polyols, mainly applied to waterborne
polyurethane mortar floor coatings. This invention provides a modified
castor oil specifically for waterborne
polyurethane mortar floor coatings. It achieves waterborne conversion and controllable functionality of
castor oil through relatively simple
process conditions. Emulsions made from the modified
castor oil synthesized by this invention have better storage stability than emulsions made by direct external emulsification of castor oil. Furthermore, it requires less stringent
process conditions than chemical
grafting of functional groups to improve the hydrophilicity of castor oil, meaning that waterborne conversion and functionality control of castor
oil can be achieved under milder conditions.
