Alkyd resins are any of a large group of thermoplastic resins that are essentially polyesters made by heating
polyhydric alcohol with polybasic acids or their anhydride and used chiefly in making protective coatings and
good weathering properties. These resins are useful as film forming agents in paint, varnished and enamels
& as thermosetting plastics that can be moulded into solid objects. Hence, alkyd resins are one of the
important ingredients in the synthetic paint industry. Alkyd resins are the synthetic resins which have a
dominant position among the synthetic resins with respect of production volume & the frequency of the use in
paint & varnish materials. Despite the growing popularity of acrylic, polyurethane and epoxy resins, alkyd
resins remain highly favoured among paint producers for its variability of compositions & better value for
money. Originally, alkyd resins were merely the reaction products of phthalic anhydride and glycerine. But
these products were too brittle to make satisfactory coatings. The use of oils or unsaturated fatty acids in
combination with the brittle alkyds resulted in the air-drying coatings which revolutionized the chemical
coating industry. The oil or fatty acid portion of the alkyd is one of the factors which determine the paint
formulator's choice of resin to be used. In general, the lower the phthalic content of an alkyd, the higher the
amount of oil used. Alkyd resins products are suitable for wide range of products with application in
decorative, maintenance and contractor paints where excellent gloss and good durability are required.
Experts believe that the total consumption of paint & varnish materials will rise to a great extent in the coming
years. Both cost wise & performance wise, alkyds have proven themselves over a wide swath of demands,
from agriculture/construction equipment to general industrial metal and even architectural finishes.
Some of the fundamentals of the book are the basic chemistry of unsaturated polyesters, factors affecting
alkyd production, monitoring the alkyd reactions, alkyd calculations, alkyd formulations based on theory,
practical alkyd formulations, assessment of the performance of single and multicoat red iron oxide alkyd paint
systems, styrenated alkyd resins based on maleopimaric acid, mechanical properties of alkyds resin varnish
films and the effect of different weathering conditions on them, modification of alkyds, copolymerization of
alkyd silicons for coatings, styrene copolymers in alkyd resins, etc.
This book contains alkyd formulation, modification of alkyds, styrene copolymers in alkyd resins,
copolymerization of alkyd silicon, polyblends of polystyrene glycol and alkyd in surface coatings, alkyd
calculations, and alkyd nomograms. This book will find very helpful to all its readers, entrepreneurs,
scientists, technical institution, existing industries, paint technologist etc.
