Abstract

In this study copolymerization of Turkish tall oil specimens with technical grade indene-coumarone fraction of coal-tar oils (bp 150-230-degrees-C) was investigated. The effects of temperature, the reaction time and reactant ratio on the reaction rate, and the composition of the resulting copolymer were determined. Based on these studies the optimal reaction conditions were established. Some main characteristics of these new type of tall oil/indene-coumarone copolymers were determined.
