Rosin-fatty acid vinylic polymers as grind resins and grind vehicles comprising same

摘要

This invention relates to novel rosin-fatty acid vinylic polymer compositions that exhibit characteristics which make them useful as grind resins for preparing grind vehicles for ink and coating formulations. In particular, this invention relates to rosin-fatty acid vinylic grind resin compositions obtained from the addition polymerization reaction of a mixture of rosin and fatty acid and a mixture of (meth)acrylic and vinylic monomers.
