UFlex Secures First Ever Patent of Epoxy Ester Resin in India

January 25 (2021

UFlex Limited has secured a patent on 'A process for the preparation of Epoxy Ester Resin' in accordance with the provisions of the Patents Act, 1970. This is the first-ever patent for chemicals business in India and it will be considering applying for a global patent in due course of time.

This new patent will ensure technical advancement in providing a process for resin preparation wherein no wastewater treatment is required. Furthermore, Epoxy Ester Resin prepared by this process will be used in radiation or energy curing. As a result of this, curing will be faster, unlike the typical Epoxy Ester resin, which is thermally cured but takes a long time besides being uneconomical.

With enhanced stability of the coating and its chemical resistance attributes, a total of 16 claims have been taken under this patent. UFlex' newly-invented and patented approach arrests the challenges posed in a conventional method as the Epoxy ester produced has no wastewater generation, no odor and neither a dark color, which is good for fast curing coatings with efficient cost-effective processing.
