Abstract: The invention relates to compositions of ?,?-branched alkane carboxylic acids glycidyl esters which derived from rosin and or hydrogenated rosin reacted with an epihalohydrin. The above glycidyl esters compositions can be used for example, as monomer in binder compositions for paints or adhesives, as reactive diluent or as acid scavenger. This invention is also about the uses of rosin and or hydrogenated rosin glycidyl ester in combinations with polyester polyols, or acrylic polyols, or polyether polyols.
