Thermocatalytic conversion of lignin in an ethanol/formic acid medium with NiMo catalysts: role of the metal and acid sites
(Elsevier, 2017-11-15)
[EN] NiMo catalysts supported on different sulfated and non-sulfated aluminas and zirconias were studied for the catalytic conversion of lignin in a formic acid/ethanol medium. All the pre-reduced NiMo-support combinations ...
Thermally-responsive biopolyurethanes from a biobased diisocyanate
(Elsevier, 2015-09)
In this work, segmented biopolyurethanes with thermally-activated shape-memory properties were synthesized and characterized. All the employed starting materials were derived from renewable sources. The macrodiol, which ...
Thin film nanocomposites based on SBM triblock copolymer and silver nanoparticles: morphological and dielectric analysis
(WILEY-VCH, 2017-07-20)
Hybrid organic/inorganic thin film nanocomposites based on poly(styrene)-b-poly(butadiene)-b-poly(methyl methacrylate) (SBM) triblock copolymer and silver nanoparticles (Ag) have been prepared and characterized. In order ...
Thermoplastic polyurethanes with glycolysate intermediates from polyurethane waste recycling.
(Elsevier, 2017-10)
The polyol is a major component in polyurethane formulations and therefore introducing to the formulation recycled polyol (obtained during decomposition process) allows decreasing the usage of pure petrochemical components. ...
Optimizing the extraction process of natural antioxidants from chardonnay grape marc using microwave-assisted extraction
(2019-03-21)
The aim of this work was to extract phenolic compounds from Chardonnay grape marc employing a
microwave-assisted extraction (MAE). Firstly, the effect of solvent concentration (30–60%), solid mass
(1.0–2.0 g) and extraction ...
The effect of the carboxylation degree on cellulose nanofibers and waterborne polyurethane/cellulose nanofiber nanocomposites properties
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020-03)
[EN] There has been an exponential rise in the interest for waterborne polyurethanes (WBPU), due to the easy customizability of their properties and their ecofriendly nature. Moreover, their aqueous state facilitates the ...
Two different incorporation routes of cellulose nanocrystals in waterborne polyurethane nanocomposites
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
The renewability, availability and low-cost of eco-friendly cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), have gaining attention for nanocomposites preparation due to their unique properties in the nanoscale and their water dispersibility, ...
Physicochemical properties of PLA lignin blends
(2014-01-12)
Commercial alkali lignin (CL) and lignin extracted from almond shells by organosolv process (OL) were
used for the preparation of blends with poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with different percentages (0.5, 1, 5, 10 and
20%) by ...
Selective placement of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles into the lamellar nanostructure of PS-b-PMMA diblock copolymer
(Elsevier, 2015-04-27)
The aim of this work is to obtain a good and selective dispersion of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles into the lamellar morphology of PS-b-PMMA diblock copolymer. The addition of unmodified nanoparticles inhibited the formation ...
Separation and Purification of Hemicellulose by Ultrafiltration
(ACS, 2011-12-29)
[EN]During hydrolysis treatments, where the main objective is the solubilization of hemicelluloses, several undesirable reactions may occur. As a result, monomeric sugars and nonsaccharide compounds are obtained in the ...
