I and i

Kevin Barraclough
- 08 Dec 2001 - 
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Bright Side of Lignin Depolymerization: Toward New Platform Chemicals

TL;DR: Following the whole value chain from raw lignocellulose through depolymerization to application whenever possible, specific lignin-based compounds emerge that could be in the future considered as potential lignIn-derived platform chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanocellulose: Extraction and application

TL;DR: In this paper, the background of nanocellulose originated from lignocellulosic biomass and the typical extraction methods and general applications are summarized, in which the nanocellulate extraction methods related to ball milling are mainly introduced.

Aliphatic polyester elastomers derived from erythritol and α,ω-diacids

TL;DR: The design of several elastomers based on the polycondensation of erythritol, a sugar substitute that is approved for human consumption by the Food and Drug Administration, and one of eight dicarboxylic acids are reported, which are believed to be excellent candidates for potential soft biomaterials.
