PA is manufactured in two forms, namely, AG, Stepan Company.. etc” flakes and in a molten state. PA finds its main application in the plasticization of poly vinyl chloride (PVC) due to its ability to provide flexibility and strength to the compound. In paints and coatings, alkyd resins produced from anhydrides, such as PA and polyols, are used to enable efficient curing of the coating applied.
