Abstract

This paper reviews utilization research on tung oil conducted at the Southern Regional Research Laboratory in New Orleans. The tung oil program began with the inception of the Laboratory in 1940. Utilization research on tung oil has been concerned with exploratory chemical reactions to develop new or improved industrial products and with the development of improved paint formulations. The emphasis of the domestic and foreign extra-mural program supervised by this Laboratory has been aimed at the practical applications of tung oil in plastics and the effects of heat on tung oil. Accomplishments over the past few years in these areas are described, and some projection for future research needs are proposed.
