Claims
- 1. A water dispersible triglyceride composition consisting essentially of the reaction product of:
- (a) an addition product of a triglyceride oil of an unsaturated fatty acid having at least 12 carbon atoms in the fatty acid chain and an olefin selected from the group consisting of acyclic olefinic carboxylic acids and the acid anhydrides thereof having less than 10 carbon atoms in their carbon chains and wherein the double bond of the olefin is .alpha.,.beta. to the carboxylic acid group and the triglyceride oil and the olefin are employed in a molar ratio of 1 to about 1.5 to 4.1; and
- (b) a water soluble monohydroxy terminated blocked polyalkylene oxide having a molecular weight of from about 300 to 2,700;
- wherein the reaction product is dispersible and self-emulsifiable in water.
- 2. The triglyceride composition of claim 1, wherein the triglyceride oil is nonhydroxylated.
- 3. The triglyceride composition of claim 2, wherein the fatty acid chain contains 12 to 18 carbon atoms.
- 4. The triglyceride composition of claim 1, wherein the triglyceride oil is selected from the group consisting of corn oil, safflower oil, soybean oil, and sunflower oil.
- 5. The triglyceride composition of claim 1, wherein the olefin is an acyclic olefinic acid anhydride.
- 6. The triglyceride composition of claim 5, wherein the anhydride is selected from the group consisting of maleic anhydride, citraconic anhydride, itaconic anhydride, bromomaleic anhydride, and dichloromaleic anhydride.
- 7. The triglyceride composition of claim 4, wherein the polyalkylene oxide contains ethylene oxide units, propylene oxide units or a mixture thereof.
- 8. The triglyceride composition of claim 7, wherein the polyalkylene oxide is polyethylene oxide.
- 9. The triglyceride composition of claim 8, wherein the blocking group of the polyethylene oxide is a C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl or alkenyl group.
- 10. The triglyceride composition of claim 9, comprising the reaction product of 1 mole of (a) and about 1 mole of (b), wherein (a) is the addition product of 1 mole of corn oil and about 3.2 moles of maleic anhydride and (b) is polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether 350.
- 11. The triglyceride composition of claim 9, comprising the reaction product of 1 mole of (a) and about 0.4 to less than 1 mole of (b), wherein (a) is the addition product of 1 mole of corn oil and about 2.3 to 4.1 moles of maleic anhydride and (b) is a polyethylene glycol monomethylether having a molecular weight of about 550 to about 750.
- 12. The triglyceride composition of claim 8, wherein the blocking group of the polyethylene oxide is a C.sub.5 to C.sub.18 alkyl, aryl, or aralkyl group.
- 13. The triglyceride composition of claim 12 comprising the reaction product of 1 mole of (a) and about 0.3 to about 0.6 moles of (b), wherein (a) is the addition product of 1 mole of corn oil and about 2.3 to about 3.2 moles of maleic anhydride and the polyethylene oxide of (b) contains about 10 to 40 ethylene oxide units.
