Modification of Chemical Properties of Shellac with Glycerol and Acrylic Acid

Abstract:

Shellac is a natural product which has been presumed as a fragile polymer due to itschemical properties. The objective of this study was to improve chemical properties of shellac by themodification with different concentration of glycerol and acrylic acid. Shellac was reacted withglycerol at various temperature and amounts of glycerol. The intermediate product was reacted withacrylic acid at different concentration. Acid value, hydroxyl groups, and free glycerol concentrationof modified shellac was determined. The result showed that acid value gradually decrease alongincreasing temperature for each ratio of glycerol and acrylic acid to shellac. The concentration ofhydroxyl groups rise as temperature and ratio increases. Furthermore, free glycerol concentration felldown along with the rise temperature. Modification chemical properties of shellac with glycerol andacrylic acid can be applied for the further study to enhance shellac properties.
