The production of biodiesel generates glycerol as a by-product that needs valorization. Glycerol, when converted to polyglycerol, is potential polyol for bio-based thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) production. In this study, novel polyglycerol polyester (PPP) was developed from refined and coconut oil-based polyol. Glycerol first acetate then polymerized with (CPP) secondary phthalic anhydride. resulting PPP at 220 °C OH:COOH molar ratio 2.5 exhibited an OH number <100 mg KOH·g sample
Gel-permeation chromatography on Sephadex LH-20, using ethanol as eluent, permits the resolution of neutral hydroxy lipids according to molecular size.The influence shape, functional groups, chain lengths, and degree unsaturation, well effect eluent elution pattern are discussed.The usefulness method for separation classes which cannot be resolved by other chromatographic procedures, is demonstrated.Examples include separations 1,2-and 1,3-diglycerides from long-chain alcohols, alkyl...
The increasing focus on sustainable construction is driving the industry toward materials that combine functionality with environmental benefits. A viable approach to address this demand use of bio-based additives improve traditional cementitious composites. This study introduces a novel developing polymer-modified material by incorporating varied amounts (0, 1, 2, 3, and 6%) polyurethane (PU), derived from polyglycerol polyester polyol, into mortar. resulting PU-modified mortar (PUMC) was...
