UNIDYME® M15 is dimerized fatty acid produced by selective reaction of high-quality tall oil fatty acid distillates mainly composed of C36 dicarboxylic and C54 tricarboxylic acids. UNIDYME® M15 is specifically designed for use as a dimer acid in the manufacture of imidazolines and amidoamine derivatives. The unique combination of difunctionality, and long chain hydrocarbon groups, should find extensive use as a chemical intermediate in the production of reactive and nonreactive polyamide resins,
architectural enamels, urethane intermediates, alkyd resins, epoxy resins, lubricant additives, potting
compounds, quaternary ammonium compounds and any other compound where the complexity of high
molecular weight polycarboxylic acids is functionally desirable.
