Glycerol Ester

Specialists in wholesale glycerol esters

Glycerol ester is a modified resin obtained by esterification of resin acids from rosin with glycerin. This process results in a solid or semi-solid product with excellent adhesive, film-forming, and polymer compatibility properties, widely used in adhesives, inks, coatings, and cosmetics.

What is glycerol ester?

It is a chemical derivative of rosin, in which resin acids (such as abietic acid) react with glycerol (glycerin) to form an ester. The result is a more stable resin that is less acidic and has better thermal and chemical properties than natural rosin.
