  • Partially saponified triglycerides, their methods of manufacture and use as polymer additives
    Patent number: 6201053
    Abstract: Homogeneous partially saponified triglycerides are made consisting essentially of metal salts or fatty acid and mono-, di- and tri-glycerides without the need for a compatibilizing additive. The PSTs are useful as lubricants, antistats, stabilizers, coupling agents, waterproofing agents and neutralizers for polymers. The PSTs are formed in situ by reacting a fat or oil under controlled conditions with a catalyst and at a sufficiently high temperature to achieve a homogeneous composition. The PSTs also have a variety of end-uses other than as polymer additives, for example, as external lubricants, coupling agents, viscosity controllers, thickening agents, surfactants and waterproofing agents.
