Product Description

Product Introduction

Alkyd resins are polymeric compounds produced by the esterification of polyols, polyacids, and monohydric alcohols in the presence of a catalyst. They typically exhibit excellent oil solubility and drying properties, making them widely used in the coatings, inks, and adhesives industries. Alkyd resins also possess superior mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and weatherability.

 

Scope of Application

Alkyd resins are primarily used in the production of a wide range of coatings, including industrial coatings, automotive coatings, wood coatings, and metal‑surface coatings. In addition, they are employed in inks, adhesives, and plastic products.

 

Technical Specifications

Molecular weight: Molecular weight may vary depending on the product.
Acid value: typically between 20 and 80 mg KOH/g.
Oil length: It can be a long-oil, medium-oil, or short-oil alkyd resin, which affects its drying speed and flexibility.
Softening point: typically between 80 and 120°C.

 

Application areas

Paint industry, ink manufacturing, adhesive production, and plastic modification.
