Abstract

An ester of a sterically hindered polyhydroxymonocarboxylic acid and a polyhydroxy-containing component, which ester is a solid at ambient temperature conditions, comprising the condensation product of said acid selected from the group consisting of dimethylolpropionic acid, trimethylolacetic acid, and mixtures thereof, and said polyhydroxy-containing component selected from the group consisting of pentaerythritol, trimethylolethane, and mixtures thereof, said product having a mol ratio of acid to polyhydroxy-containing component of at least about 1.75, a ring and ball softening point of at least about 50.degree. C., and an acid number of less than about 40. An ester of a sterically hindered polyhydroxymonocarboxylic acid and a polyhydroxy-containing component, which ester is a solid at ambient temperature conditions, comprising the condensation product of said acid selected from the group consisting of dimethylolpropionic acid, trimethylolacetic acid, and mixtures thereof, and pentaerythritol, said product having a mol ratio of acid to pentaerythritol of at least about 0.75, a ring and ball softening point of at least about 50.degree.
