The physical properties of high solid alkyds (80% solids) with varying ratio of PE/DPE are presented in Table 2. All the resinswere clear and color was within six Gardner scale and the acid value obtained was below 12mgKOH/g. The trends observed in viscosity and polydispersity with increasing DPE percentagewere correlated with the rheological and molecular weight characteristics of typical highly branched alkyd resins.
