Transesterification of palm olein with glycerol can increase the functionality by introducing additional hydroxyl groups to the triglyceride structure, an advantage compared to using palm olein directly as feedstock for producing palm-based polyol. The objective of this study was to synthesize transesterified palm olein-based polyol via a three-step reaction: (1) transesterification of palm ole...

background: zeolites containing silver ion, in combination with synthetic fibers, show antibacterial activity. objectives: the purpose of this study was to use silver zeolite indirectly as antimicrobial agents to control streptococcus iniae infection which recently has caused disease in some of rainbow trout farms in iran. methodes: in this context polyurethane foams containing silver zeolite (...

Acoustic radiation through a system of double-walled shells, lined with porous foams, and stiffened by annular plates simultaneously is studied. Based on modeling, the foams as absorbent fluid property, acoustic characteristics structure are presented for various sandwich construction means vibro-acoustic finite element method automatic matching layer technology. It noted that equipping enhance...

Open cell polyurethane foams are often used as cancellous bone surrogates because of their similarities in morphology and mechanical response. In this work, open three different densities characterized from morphometric perspectives. The analysis micro-computed tomography images has revealed that the high density present greatest inhomogeneities. Those inhomogeneities promoted failure location....

Valorization of industrial low-value side-streams are great interest, contributing to boosts in the circular economy. In this context, lignin pulp and paper industry were oxypropylated produce biobased polyols tested synthesis rigid polyurethane (RPU) foams. E. globulus lignins, namely a isolated from an Kraft black liquor depolymerized lignins obtained as by-products oxidation process, used. R...
