Emulsification and Polymerization of Alkyd Resins

This text describes in detail a process for preparing emulsions and alkyd resin emulsions, leading to many applications, foremost among them the formulation of new paints. This research has also spawned the international field of alkyd and alkyd-hybrid miniemulsions. Pioneering technology is presented for the emulsification of alkyd resins and vegetable oils used in coatings, adhesives, and inks applications. Essential technical information is provided for researchers and manufacturers involved in the emulsification of resins, oils, and pigments.
