Rosin sizing usually involves the addition of dilute aqueous solutions or dispersions of rosin soap size and alum to a pulp slurry (44—46). Although beater addition of either coreactant is permissable, addition of both before final pulp refining is unwise because subsequently exposed ceUulose surfaces may not be properly sized. The size and alum should be added sufficiendy eady to provide uniform distribution in the slurry, and adequate time for the formation and retention of aluminum resinates, commonly referred to as size precipitate. Free rosin emulsion sizes, however, do not react to a significant degree with alum in the pulp slurry, and addition of a cationic starch or resin is recommended to maximize retention of size to fiber. Subsequent reaction with aluminum occurs principally in the machine drier sections (47). 

Ultramarine blues are prepared by a high temperature reaction of intimate mixtures of china clay, sodium carbonate, sulfur, siHca, sodium sulfate, and a carbonaceous reducing agent, eg, charcoal, pitch, or rosin. 

Derivatives. Most rosin products are sold as derivatives, which extends their utiUty. The carboxyl group or the double bonds are usually involved in the reactions. 

The formulation of calcium chelate materials is based upon the formation of a low-solubiUty chelate between calcium hydroxide and a sahcylate. Dycal utilizes the reaction product of a polyhydric compound and sahcyhc acid. Other sahcyhc acid esters can be similarly used. Vehicles used to carry the calcium hydroxide, extenders, and fillers may include mineral oil, A/-ethyl- -toluenesulfonamide [80-39-7] and polymeric fluids. The filler additions may include titanium dioxide [13463-67-7] zinc oxide, sihca [7631-86-9], calcium sulfate, and barium sulfate [7727-43-7]. Zinc oxide and barium sulfate are useflil as x-ray opacifying agents to ensure a density greater than that of normal tooth stmcture. Resins, rosin, limed rosins, and modified rosins may serve as modifiers of the physical characteristics in both the unset and set states. 

Monomer conversion (79) is followed by measuring the specific gravity of the emulsion. The polymerization is stopped at 91% conversion (sp gr 1.069) by adding a xylene solution of tetraethylthiuram disulfide. The emulsion is cooled to 20°C and aged at this temperature for about 8 hours to peptize the polymer. During this process, the disulfide reacts with and cleaves polysulfide chain segments. Thiuram disulfide also serves to retard formation of gel polymer in the finished dry product. After aging, the alkaline latex is acidified to pH 5.5—5.8 with 10% acetic acid. This effectively stops the peptization reaction and neutralizes the rosin soap (80). 

This type of raw material can be chemically modified to make a variety of rosin derivatives having different degrees of compatibility and softening points. Common chemical reactions include ... 

Resins can be divided into natural and synthetic types. Natural resins have a vegetable or animal origin. Typical examples are rosins. Synthetic resins result from controlled chemical reactions, and can be divided into two subgroups. 

The most important single reactions produced in the carboxyl functionality of the resin acids are salt formation, Diels-Alder additions, and esterification. Other reactions, such as disproportionation and polymerization, are less important. For some specific applications, rosins are subjected to a combination of these reactions. 

Esterification. The esterification of rosin provides important commercial products for the adhesive industry. Rosin esters are formed by the reaction of rosins with alcohols at elevated temperatures. Because the carboxyl group of the resin acids is hindered by attachment to a tertiary carbon, esterification with an alcohol can only be accomplished at elevated temperatures. This hindrance is in turn responsible for the high resistance of the resin acid ester linkage to cleavage by water, acid and alkali. 

A mixture of 142.5 g of "Rosin Amine D" containing about 70% dehydroabietylamine and 30% dihydro and tetrahydroabietylamine, 47.0 g of ethylene dibromide, and 60.6 g of tri-ethylamine is dissolved in 350 cc of anhydrous xylene and refluxed for about 16 hours. Thereafter the triethylamine dibromide salt formed Is separated from the solution by filtering the cool reaction mixture and washing with ether. The solution is then concentrated under reduced pressure to dryness to remove the ether, xylene and excess triethylamines present. 

Most of the inhibitors in use are organic nitrogen compounds and these have been classified by Bregman as (a) aliphatic fatty acid derivatives, b) imidazolines, (c) quaternaries, (d) rosin derivatives (complex amine mixtures based on abietic acid) all of these will tend to have long-chain hydrocarbons, e.g. CigH, as part of the structure, (e) petroleum sulphonic acid salts of long-chain diamines (preferred to the diamines), (/) other salts of diamines and (g) fatty amides of aliphatic diamines. Actual compounds in use in classes (a) to d) include oleic and naphthenic acid salts of n-tallowpropylenediamine diamines RNH(CH2) NH2 in which R is a carbon chain of 8-22 atoms and x = 2-10 and reaction products of diamines with acids from the partial oxidation of liquid hydrocarbons. Attention has also been drawn to polyethoxylated compounds in which the water solubility can be controlled by the amount of ethylene oxide added to the molecule. 

The iodinated tyrosine residues monoiodotyrosine (MIT) and diiodoty-rosine (DIT) combine (couple) to form iodothyronines in reactions catalyzed by thyroid peroxidase. Thus, two molecules of DIT combine to form T4, and MIT and DIT join to form T3. 

Terpenoids are susceptible to a number of alterations mediated by oxidation and reduction reactions. For example, the most abundant molecule in aged Pinus samples is dehydroabietic acid [Structure 7.10], a monoaromatic diterpenoid based on the abietane skeleton which occurs in fresh (bleed) resins only as a minor component. This molecule forms during the oxidative dehydrogenation of abietic acid, which predominates in rosins. Further atmospheric oxidation (autoxidation) leads to 7-oxodehydroabietic acid [Structure 7.11]. This molecule has been identified in many aged coniferous resins such as those used to line transport vessels in the Roman period (Heron and Pollard, 1988 Beck et al., 1989), in thinly spread resins used in paint media (Mills and White, 1994 172-174) and as a component of resin recovered from Egyptian mummy wrappings (Proefke and Rinehart, 1992).

Diazotization of the aminosulfonic acid and subsequent coupling onto the sodium salt of 2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid initially affords the monoazo compound in the form of its soluble sodium salt. Subsequent reaction with chlorides or sulfates of alkaline earth metals or with a manganese salt, frequently in the presence of a dispersion agent, or rosin or its derivatives, at elevated temperature yields the insoluble BONA pigment lake.

The increase of carboxymethyllysine (batch 1) and pentosidine (batches 1 and 11) thus observed provided additional proof for fhe Maillard reaction in caries (fable 3, figs. 2, 3). The pentosidine level ranged from abouf equal fo a manifold of the level in sound dentin. The formation of pentosidine can only account for a fraction of the increase in 328/378 fluorescence, which is in accordance with a major contribution from a different fluorophore as stated above. Unfortunately, an increase of dify-rosine as expected from fhe gain in 317/407 fluorescence (fable 2) could not be substantiated unequivocally by HPLC analysis because dityrosine co-eluted with lysylpyridinoline. Even if we would consider dityrosine to originate the lysylpyridinoline peaks observed in HPLC of carious dentin, but not of sound dentin, only one quarter of the increase in 317/407 fluorescence would derive from difyrosine. 

In the process described here [50], the esterification reaction was carried out in the homogeneous phase and was followed by distillation under vacuum of the methyl esters obtained, allowing the removal of rosin acids as a bottom product. Hydrogenation of tall oil methyl esters obtained in this way gave the results reported in Table 10.6 and Figure 10.8.
