Alkyd resins produced from bio-based resources for more sustainable and environmentally friendly coating applications

Recently, due to the depletion of natural resources and raising environmental economic concerns regarding petroleum derivatives, creation novel ecologically friendly sustainable materials made from bio-based renewable is gaining popularity. Alkyd resins are synthetic in which both (fatty acids, glycerol, oil, etc.) nonrenewable (maleic anhydride, pentaerythritol, phthalic raw used their production. Due superior performance (good aging, greater weather resistance high heat resistance, outstanding gloss, over other resins, easy application, low cost, varied use, coating paint industries, they commonly used. This review covers studies on monomers instead ones production alkyds. The effects substituted final properties (adhesiveness, drying times, hardness, tackiness, produced alkyds coatings also discussed detail.
