Abstract:	Polyesters were synthesized with monoglycerides prepared from rubber seed oil, a renewable resource. Monoglycerides were obtained by an alcoholysis method from the oil, which was neat or modified by treatments with different amounts of maleic anhydride at 230 degrees C. The polyester resins were subsequently prepared by the condensation polymerization of the monoglycerides with phthalic anhydride. The monoglycerides and resins were characterized by spectroscopic analysis and measurements of the physicochemical properties. The chemical resistance of the polyesters was also studied. The results revealed that the polyesters prepared from the modified monoglycerides possessed better properties.
