Utilisation of bio-derived platform molecules in polymer synthesis has advantages which are, broadly, twofold; to digress from crude oil dependence of the polymer industry and secondly to reduce the environmental impact of the polymer synthesis through the inherent functionality of the bio-derived platform molecules. Bulk polymerisation of bio-derived unsaturated di-acids has been employed to p...

Alginic acid, a high molecular weight linear polymer obtained from seaweed, is widely used as an added product to food due to its property of forming highly viscous solutions. Originally described as a polymer of n-mannuronic acid, it has now been demonstrated, by the chemical studies of Fischer and DGrfel (l), to be a ,&l-4-linked polymer of n-mannuronic and L-guluronic acid. The ratio of the ...

Here we describe the metathesis reactions of a strained eight-membered ring that contains both alkene and alkyne functionality. We find that the alkyne metathesis catalyst produces polymer through a ring-opening alkyne metathesis reaction that is driven by the strain release from the monomer. The strained monomer provides unusual reactivity with ruthenium-based alkene metathesis catalysts. We i...

In this study, an experimental research was conducted in developing and characterising sugarcane bagasse pineapple leaf particulate re?nforced polyester res?n compos?tes. Unsaturated resin (UPR) reinforced with particulates varied proportions (0 – 25 wt. %) by mould casting. Morphology mechanical properties of the composites were examined. There a good dispersion resin. The composite demonstrat...
