Abstract

Polybisphenol maleate was prepared by the reaction of bisphenol diacetate and maleic acid and its molecular weight, relative viscosity, solubility and melting points were determined. Its structure was confirmed by spectral and chemical analysis. It was incorporated physically and chemically into linseed oil alkyds and resulting products were termed as physical blends and copolyesters respectively. Film properties of blends and copolyesters were studied and compared with those of plain linseed oil alkyds. It was found that copolyesters were superior in film properties to those of plain linseed oil alkyds, and blends were up to some extent.
