Abstract

Air-driable alkyd resins are prepared by reacting substantially equimolar a dicarboxylic acid anhydride and a glycidyl ester of a primary fatty acid, at least part of the ester having a--CH.dbd.CH--linkage not .alpha..beta. to the carboxyl group residue of the fatty acid residue. The glycidyl ester may be used alone or in admixture with a glycidyl ether or ephichlorohydrin. Polymerization is effected at relatively low temperatures (100.degree. C. or less) using a catalyst, which is preferably a stannous or zinc carboxylate. The resins produced are substantially color-free and have a narrow range of molecular weights.
