One step beyond for CNSL‐based plasticizers for PVC: Use of cardol
AbstractPoly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is a widely employed plastic across diverse industries and is often associated with plasticizers, additives that decrease the inherent rigidity and brittleness of the material. Conventional phthalate‐based plasticizers raise substantial toxicity concerns, encouraging the exploration of bio‐based alternatives. One such

Epoxidation of CNSL Mixture, Cardanol, and Cardol: A Sustainable Solution for PVC Plasticization
ABSTRACT Epoxidation is an effective method for enhancing the plasticizing properties of biobased oils for the plasticization of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), among other applications. Epoxy groups not only increase the affinity with PVC but also enhance its thermal and mechanical properties. Cashew nut shell liquid

ABSTRACTFor the first time, a mixture of cardanol and cardol esters has been studied as plasticizers for PVC. From our previous work, it has been established that the favorable plasticizing properties of cardol for PVC materials exist. Hence, the utilization of cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), a naturally occurring mixture of cardanol and cardol, as a ...

Experiences and Perceptions of Functional Recovery in Late-Life Depression: A Qualitative Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This qualitative study aims to explore patient perspectives and experiences with functional recovery in late‐life depression. Purposive sampling was used to include patients (60 years and older) with a depression diagnosis in the past year (in full or partial remission at inclusion). This led to the inclusion of 12 participants.

A Mitochondrially Related Plastidial Transporter Regulates Photosynthesis in the Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Eukaryotic phototrophs depend on the activity of two engines (the plastid and the mitochondrion) to generate the energy required for cellular metabolism. Because of their overlapping functions, both activities must be closely coordinated. At the plastid level, optimisation occurs through alternative electron transport, the diversion of excess ...

Carbon Source Flexibility in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii: Impact of Glycolate on Mixotrophic Growth. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Mixotrophy is a widespread trophic strategy adopted by microalgae to optimize the utilization of environmental resources. It combines phototrophic and heterotrophic growth, involving the simultaneous use of both light and exogenous organic carbon as energy inputs.
