Exploring fatty acid derivatives from renewable resources as raw materials for coating applications
In the work presented herein, epoxy fatty acid derivatives were explored in the formation of thermosets for coating applications. The epoxy fatty acid derivatives were obtained from renewable resources such as birch tree bark and epoxidized linseed oil. The birch bark was used to isolate 9,10-epoxy-...

The epoxy fatty acid derivatives were obtained from renewable resources such as birch tree bark and epoxidized linseed oil.
