The condensation of phenol with stearone and methylheptadecyl ketone has been studied. The bisphenols and other products thus produced were identified by hydroxyl equivalents, molecular weight, infrared spectra, elemental analysis, and preparation of characteristic derivatives. The commercial potential of this family of fatty derivatives was examined briefly from two approaches. Polymerization with formaldehyde, epichlorohydrin, and phosgene, was investigated, and several fluids were prepared and screened as potential high‐temperature lubrieants.
