Resins and resin combination Flashcards
Amorphous products with complex chemical nature
RESIN
Are end products of metabolism (product of volatile oil oxidation)
RESIN
Found in the schizogenous and schizolysigenous ducts or cavities
RESIN
• Usually hard, transparent, or translucent
• They are complex mixtures of resin acids, resin alcohols, resinotannols, esters and
resenes
RESIN
resins with volatile oils (turpentine)
Oleoresins
- Oleoresins with gums. Gums are water soluble carbohydrate derivatives, thus they can be separated from Oleoresins rather easily (Myrrh)
Oleo-Gum resins
resinous mixtures that contain cinnamic acid, benzoic acid or both, or
esters of these acids.
Balsam
contain a large proportion of diterphenoid oxyacids, usually combining
the properties of carboxylic acids and phenols
Resin acids
metallic salts of resin acids
Resinates
these are complex alcohols of high molecular weight, giving a tannin reaction with Iron salts.
