Blends of polybisphenol phthalate and alkyds

Abstract

Polybisphenol phthalate was synthesized by the melt poly condensation process and its physical and spectral data were determined. It was blended in different proportion with linseed alkyds of various oil length. Film properties of these blends were studied and were compared with those of plain linseed alkyds. It was observed that chemical properties of the blends, containing 10 and 25 per cent polybisphenol phthalate were superior to those of the plain alkyds and the blends containing 50 per cent polybisphenol phthalate. The mechanical properties such as scratch hardness of the polybisphenol phthalate alkyd blends were inferior to those of the plain linseed alkyds.
