Palm oleic acid based alkyds: effect of the fatty acid content on the polyesterification kinetics

The kinetic behavior of polyesterification of the alkyd resins synthesized using glycerol and phthalic anhydride modified with oleic acid from the palm oil at temperatures between 120 and 240 °C was studied. Three alkyds having oleic acid contents of 28, 40, and 65 were prepared by employing fatty...
