High-weight glyceride oligomers and methods of making the same

Abstract

Oligomers of certain glyceride compounds are generally disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the glyceride compounds include natural oil glycerides, such as glycerides derived from natural oils, such as palm oil, soybean oil, canola oil, and the like. Compositions containing such glyceride oligomers are also disclosed herein. Processes for making such glyceride oligomers are also disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the processes for making such compounds include reacting a plurality of unsaturated glyceride compounds in the presence of a metathesis catalyst.
