Vegetable-Oil-Based Hyperbranched Polyester-Styrene Copolymer Containing Silver Nanoparticle as Antimicrobial and Corrosion-Resistant Coating Materials

Pongamia oil (PO) was converted to Pongamia oil hydroxyl (POH) via epoxidation process. The esterification of POH with linolenic acid was carried out to form hyperbranched polyester (HBPE), and further styrenation was performed at the conjugated double bond in the chain of linolenic acid. After styr...
