Title:
BIO-BASED ESTOLIDE COMPOSITIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/067492
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Levulinic-capped estolides having improved physical properties that make them more desirable and suitable as bio-based industrial or commercial products are disclosed. The physical properties of the disclosed estolide compositions have surprisingly low pour points that are substantially lower than previously known estolide compounds and superior to petroleum-based compounds designed for similar applications.
