Procedure
Glycerol 13.2 gram and itaconic Acid, 26 gram (2:3 molar ratio) were heated in an open beaker with stirring at 165 C for 2 hours. P-toluene-sulfonic acid 100 mg was added and the viscous liquid was poured in a silicone rubber mould—circular diameter 6 cm—and kept in an oven for 20 hrs. A yellow thick circular disc was obtained with a density exceeding 1 gr/ml. No foaming took place. Combustion analysis showed a carbon content of 49.69% and a hydrogen content of 6.05%.
