Improved Thermal Insulating Properties of Renewable Polyol Based Polyurethane Foams Reinforced with Chicken Feathers
(MDPI, 2019-12-03)
In the present work, sustainable rigid polyurethane foams (RPUF) reinforced with chicken
feathers (CF) were prepared and characterized. The bio-based polyol used to formulate the foams
was obtained from castor oil. This ...
Fully Biodegradable Biocomposites with High Chicken Feather Content
(MDPI, 2017-11-09)
The aim of this work was to develop new biodegradable polymeric materials with high
loadings of chicken feather (CF). In this study, the effect of CF concentration and the type of
biodegradable matrix on the physical, ...
Build-To-Specification Vanillin and Phloroglucinol Derived Biobased Epoxy-Amine Vitrimers
(MDPI, 2020-10-22)
Epoxy resins are widely used in the composite industry due to their dimensional stability,
chemical resistance, and thermo-mechanical properties. However, these thermoset resins have
important drawbacks. (i) The vast ...
