Description
Yellowish, semi-crystalline powder. Abietic acid is the primary resin acid component of the solid portion (Rosin) of resinous exudations obtained from coniferous trees after the volatiles (turpentine) are removed. Esters of abietic acid, such as methyl abietate, are used in lacquers and varnishes. Resinates of heavy metals, such as lead abietate, are used as driers in oil paints and varnishes. Copper resinate, formed from mixing a copper salt with rosin, is used as a transparent green pigment.
Synonyms and Related Terms
abietinic acid; sylvic acid; 13-isopropylpodocapra-7-13-dien-15-oicacid
