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 ...
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. ...
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, ...

(Taylor & Francis, 2022-01-22)
With the aim to open new applications possibilities to novel biocomposites based on PLA/PMMA matrix and reinforced with sisal fibers, it was studied the effect of water immersion aging on biocomposite tensile properties. ...
Preparation and characterization of composites based on poly(lactic acid)/poly(methyl methacrylate) matrix and sisal fiber bundles: The effect of annealing process
(Sage, 2020-06-12)
The interest on poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) blends has increased during the last years due to their promising properties. The novelty of the current work focuses on the preparation and ...
The Importance of Coupling Agent on Tensile and Thermomechanical Performance of Annealed Composites Based on Poly(Lactic Acid)/Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) Matrix and Sisal Fiber Bundles
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-04-22)
The main aim of this work is to study the importance of the coupling agent
on tensile and thermomechanical performance of annealed composites
based on poly (lactic acid)/poly (methyl methacrylate) matrix and sisal ...
Properties of flexible polyurethane foams containing isocyanate functionalized kraft lignin
(Elsevier, 2017-02-20)
A commercial kraft lignin (k-lignin) was successfully functionalized by means of the reaction of an isocyanate group from isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) with hydroxyl groups present in lignin (k-IPDI), for their further ...
Self-assembly and crystallization of double crystalline aliphatic thermoplastic biopolyurethane and its nucleation with cellulose nanocrystals
(Elsevier, 2022-01-13)
[EN] An aliphatic segmented thermoplastic biopolyurethane (STPU), based on aliphatic hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 1,3 propanediol (1,3PD) as urethane rich phase and a poly(sebacate) as a macrodiol phase, with ~50 ...
3D printed alginate-cellulose nanofibers based patches for local curcumin administration
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
Alginate and nanocellulose are potential biomaterials to be employed as bioinks for three-dimensional (3D) printing. Alginate-cellulose nanofibers (A-CNF) formulations with CNF amounts up to 5 wt% were developed and ...
