Abstract

Some of the significant benefits of cost effective alkyd resins are discussed. Some of the ingredients of the cost effective alkyd resins, include rice bran oil fatty acids in combination with linseed oil fatty acids. These ingredients are used in varying amounts for preparing alkyd resins for different applications. Some of the significant benefits of alkyd resins, include its cost effectiveness, simple application, and better quality appearance of these films. It has been observed that alkyd resins can play a significant in reducing the cost of a final product. Significant research in the field has resulted in the development of alkyd resins, leading to coatings having optimal film properties. These alkyd resin coatings have emerged as cost-effective coatings, as compared with pure linseed oil based coatings, due to much lower price of rice bran oil.
