Use of oils with high concentrations of polyunsaturated fatty acids in plastics and surface coatings

摘要

Oil compositions having a high concentration of polyunsaturated fatty acids are described for use in various applications including use as drying oils, in ink compositions and coating compositions. Oil compositions wherein the double bonds of the fatty acids are substantially epoxidized are described and used as plasticizers and thermal stabilizers for various halogenated polymer compositions.

1. A printed substrate, wherein the substrate comprises an ink or coating on at least one surface of the substrate, the ink or coating comprising an oil composition comprising either:
(a) at least about 7.5 wt. % stearidonic acid based upon the total weight of fatty acids in the oil composition; or (c) at least 20 wt. % gamma-linolenic acid based upon the total weight of fatty acids in the composition.
