A Sustainable Bio-Based Epoxy Thermoset as a High-Performance Alternative to BPA-Based Resins. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)A rigid–flexible bio‐based epoxy network integrates soybean oil, lignin, and maleic anhydride to overcome the strength–toughness–sustainability trade‐off of conventional BPA epoxy. The thermoset delivers excellent performance as both a structural adhesive and a matrix for glass‐fabric composites, while enabling pH‐responsive degradation, environmental ...

Species-level determination of closely related araucarian resins using FTIR spectroscopy and its implications for the provenance of New Zealand amber [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Some higher plants, both angiosperms and gymnosperms, can produce resins and some of these resins can polymerize and fossilize to form ambers. Various physical and chemical techniques have been used to identify and profile different plant resins and have

Occurrence of polycadinene in fossil and recent resins [PDF]
Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 1994 Abstract Dammars produced by Dipterocarpaceae growing in Southeast Asia are partly composed of a macromolecule with a polycadinene structure. This polymer is the precursor of many specific compounds encountered in crude oils and sediment extracts from South Asia.

Early Miocene coastal taphonomy: piddock and barnacle inclusions from Chiapas amber [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica PolonicaPiddocks (Pholadidae) are bivalves adapted for boring in substrates such as wood, rocks, and fossil resins. While the trace fossils associated with their boring behavior (Teredolites and Apectoichnus) are well documented, their body fossils are much ...
