Description:
Dammar resin, with the CAS number 9000-16-2, is a natural resin derived from various species of trees, primarily from the Dipterocarpaceae family found in Southeast Asia. It is characterized by its translucent, amber-like appearance and is typically brittle when solid. Dammar resin is composed mainly of terpenes and has a complex mixture of organic compounds, including acids and alcohols. It is soluble in organic solvents such as turpentine, benzene, and ethanol, making it useful in various applications. Dammar resin is widely used in the production of varnishes, paints, and inks due to its excellent film-forming properties and ability to enhance gloss and durability. Additionally, it has applications in traditional medicine and as a component in incense. The resin is valued for its low toxicity and biodegradability, making it an environmentally friendly option compared to synthetic resins. Its unique properties also make it a subject of interest in art conservation and restoration, where it is used to create protective coatings for artworks.
