Polyether polyols can improve the performance of waterborne epoxy curing agent. In this paper, intermediates were synthesized from polyether triols with epoxy resin E‐51 and introduced into the epoxy curing agent by reacting with TETA. This paper focuses on the process of synthesizing the intermediates. The 2K waterborne epoxy coating film prepared with polyether triols‐modified waterborne epoxy curing agent exhibits desirable corrosion protection capacity and neutral salt spray resistance up to 600 h. In addition, the 2K waterborne epoxy coating film prepared using the modified waterborne epoxy curing agent with polyether triols displayed improved surface appearance, mechanical properties, and water resistance.
