Bioinspired Design and Synthesis of Polyphenolic Star‐Like and Hyperbranched Polyester Models
Gallotannin‐inspired star‐like and hyperbranched aromatic polyesters were synthesized from D‐glucose and ABn‐type phenolic acid monomers, such as protocatechuic acid. This bioinspired approach afforded polyphenolic polymeric nanoparticles able to encapsulate hydrophobic dyes, opening new perspectives for biobased encapsulation and delivery systems ...

Graphical abstract illustrating the niobic acid precipitation process applied and the product obtained. Abstract This study investigates the precipitation of niobic acid (Nb2O5.nH2O) from potassium niobate solution with addition of sulphuric acid, and its subsequent thermal conversion into niobium oxide (Nb2O5). Thermodynamic modelling with PHREEQC and

Revisiting the synthesis of dimethyl carbonate from methanol and carbon dioxide
Abstract The process for producing dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from carbon dioxide (CO2) and methanol is explored in this article. It provides an overview of the thermodynamics involved in DMC synthesis, discussing the challenges and potential solutions. The article highlights the reported use of catalysts and dehydrating agents to improve DMC yield and ...

Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

Abstract This study examines the microwave‐assisted catalytic pyrolysis (MACP) of individual and blended textiles (cotton, polyester, nylon 6) using ZnO and a ZnO/natural zeolite catalyst. In a custom‐built microwave reactor operated at 500°C, 1 kW power, and a 15‐min residence time, textile wastes were pyrolyzed.
