Alkyd Resin

Product Introduction

Alkyd resin is a polymer compound formed by esterification of polyols, polyacids, and monoalcohols under the action of a catalyst. They usually have good oil solubility and dryness, and are widely used in the coatings, inks, and adhesives industries. Alkyd resin has good mechanical properties, chemical resistance, and weather resistance.

Application scope

Alkyd resin is mainly used in the production of various coatings, including industrial coatings, automotive coatings, wood coatings, and metal surface coatings. In addition, they are also used in inks, adhesives, and plastic products.
