Journal ArticleDOI
Development and application of triglyceride‐based polymers and composites
Shrikant Khot,John J. LaScala,Erde Can,Shantaram S. Morye,George I. Williams,Giuseppe R. Palmese,Selim H. Küsefoğlu,Richard P. Wool +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the tensile and flexural properties of natural and synthetic fiber-reinforced composite materials are compared. And the results show that the properties exhibited by both the natural-and synthetic fiber reinforced composites can be combined through the production of hybrid composite materials.

High modulus polymers and composites from plant oils
TL;DR: The liquid resins described in this article are derived from plant and animal oil triglycerides by suitably functionalizing the triglyceride with chemical groups that render it polymerizable, which is a combination of various triesters of fatty acids linked together with glycerol.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rigid, thermosetting liquid molding resins from renewable resources. I. Synthesis and polymerization of soy oil monoglyceride maleates
TL;DR: In this article, a rigid thermoset polymers were prepared from radical copolymerization of the soybean oil monoglyceride maleates with styrene in order to obtain rigid, thermopolymerized polymers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased yields in biodiesel production from used cooking oils by a two step process: Comparison with one step process by using TGA
Gökhan Çaylı,Selim H. Küsefoğlu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared one-and two-stage base catalyzed room temperature transesterification reaction of used cooking oil was compared and found that the two-step processes gave a better yield (96%) than the one-step process (86%).
Journal ArticleDOI
Soybean‐ and castor‐oil‐based thermosetting polymers: Mechanical properties
TL;DR: In this article, maleic anhydride modified soybean- and castor-oil-based monomers, prepared via the malination of the alcoholysis products of the oils with various polyols, such as pentaerythritol, glycerol, and bisphenol A pro-poxylate, were copolymerized with styrene to give hard rigid plastics.
