Summary Drying oils have been prepared by the direct esterification of methyl alpha‐D‐glucoside and linseed fatty acids. Litharge is an effective catalyst for this reaction. These methyl alpha‐D‐glucoside oils possess more rapid bodying characteristics at 310°C. (590°F.) than similar synthetic glycerol or pentaerythritol oils. With Bakelite BR‐254 resin the methyl alpha‐D‐glucoside oils cook rapidly into 25‐gallon oil length varnishes that dry quickly to hard films with good alkali and water resistance and excellent adhesive properties.
