This paper presents the synthesis of some polymers from maleinated vegetable oils (soybean, sunflower, and grape seed) and glycerol. First, all the vegetable oils were previously maleinated with maleic anhydride, then, the ...

Grape seed is a waste product from the wine and juice industries. However, vegetable oil can be extracted from it, which is a renewable chemical with a huge potential application after chemical modifications, such as ...

Vegetable oil has been widely used to synthesize monomers and polymers in different fields. Some authors have found different polymers in maleinized vegetable oil; however, they have not described the luminescent properties ...

O elevado consumo de materiais poliméricos oriundos de origem fóssil, associado aos seus baixos valores de reciclagem (5%) e de vida útil (1 ano), vêm demandando pesquisas em uma nova classe de polímeros, os biopolímeros. ...

Pesquisas visando a síntese de polímeros utilizando compostos químicos renováveis são cada vez mais frequentes. O óleo vegetal (triacilgliceróis) é um excelente exemplo de composto químico renovável que pode facilmente ser ...

This project studies the formulation of an epoxy system for use in artistic encapsulation applications, with eye-catching and customized finishes. The motivation stems from the need to solve some of the problems of epoxy ...
