Abstract
Abstract An air-drying alkyd resin, based on A) a dicarboxylic acid; B) a non-drying monocarboxylic acid; C) a drying fatty acid; and D) at least one compound selected from the group consisting of D1) polyhydric, at least trihydric alcohol, and D2) mixtures of D1) with up to 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the alkyd resin, of at least one dihydric alcohol; modified by an additional reaction with at least one monofunctional monomeric oxirane compound and having a viscosity of not more than 450 mPa.s (measured in a 60% xylene solution at 20° C) and having an acid number of not more than 15, a process for its preparation and coated articles coated with compositions comprising said alkyd resin.
