Journal ArticleDOI
Soybean-oil-based waterborne polyurethane dispersions: effects of polyol functionality and hard segment content on properties.
Yongshang Lu,Richard C. Larock +1 more
TL;DR: Novel environmentally friendly biobased SPU materials with promising applications as decorative and protective coatings are reported, addressing concerns regarding gelation and higher cross-linking caused by the high functionality of vegetable-oil-based polyols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphology and properties of soy protein isolate thermoplastics reinforced with chitin whiskers.
TL;DR: The results indicate that the strong interactions between fillers and between the filler and SPI matrix play an important role in reinforcing the composites without interfering with their biodegradability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological, thermal and mechanical properties of ramie crystallites—reinforced plasticized starch biocomposites
TL;DR: A series of environmentally friendly glycerol plasticized starch (PS) biocomposites were successfully prepared, using ramie cellulose nanocrystalites (RN) of 0-40% as fillers as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel polymeric materials from vegetable oils and vinyl monomers: preparation, properties, and applications.
Yongshang Lu,Richard C. Larock +1 more
TL;DR: This Minireview focuses on the latest developments in the preparation, properties, and applications of vegetable oil based polymeric materials obtained by free radical, cationic, and olefin metathesis polymerizations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biocomposites of plasticized starch reinforced with cellulose crystallites from cottonseed linter.
TL;DR: The results indicate that the strong interactions between fillers and between the filler and PS matrix play a key role in reinforcing the resulting composites and leading to an improvement in water resistance for the resulting biocomposites.
