Abstract: This paper describes the antimicrobial and corrosion inhibitive properties of synthesized polyesteramide resin from Moringa oleifera seed oil (MOSO). N,N\'-bis (2-hydroxyethyl) Moringa oleifera oil fatty amide (HEMA) was synthesized via aminolysis from MOSO. The fatty amide obtained from aminolysis (HEMA) undergoes polycondensation reaction with adipic acid to form polyesteramide (MOPEA). The synthesized polyesteramide resin was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), Carbon 13 nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR) spectroscopic analyses and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Selected physico-chemical parameters of MOSO, HEMA and MOPEA were examined. Coating performance, thermal stability and antimicrobial properties of the cured resin (MOPEA) were evaluated.
