5-Hydroxymethylfurfural and Furfural Chemistry Toward Biobased Surfactants. [PDF]
Sustainable surfactants: Furanic platform molecules can lead to novel biobased surfactants with original molecular design. In this Review, synthetic strategies from of 5‐hydroxymethylfurfural, furfural, and furan leading to anionic, cationic, amphoteric, and non‐ionic amphiphiles are highlighted.

The Distribution of Furfuryl Alcohol (FA) Resin in Bamboo Materials after Surface Furfurylation. [PDF]
In this study, bamboo was treated with an optimized surface furfurylation process. With this process, dimensionally stable and highly biologically durable bamboo material could be prepared without mechanical reduction. The anti-swelling efficiency (ASE) could reach 50% with a low weight percent gain (WPG about 13%).

Beyond What Meets the Eye: Imaging and Imagining Wood Mechanical–Structural Properties
A review of the imaging of wood at various length scales is presented, showing how hierarchical properties are achieved and demonstrating unique levels of physical and mechanical performance. Abstract Wood presents a hierarchical structure, containing features at all length scales: from the tracheids or vessels that make up its cellular structure ...

In the study, we report that a safe and simple way for upgrading inferior rubber wood through the combined modification of environment‐friendly MUG resin was synthesized from glyoxal, melamine, urea, and other additives. MUG‐treated wood samples were prepared with six different MUG resin concentrations (5, 15, 25, 35, 45, and 55 wt %) into the wood ...

1-Furfuryl-3-furoylthiourea [PDF]
The title compound, C(11)H(10)N(2)O(3)S, was synthesized from furoyl isothio-cyanate and furfurylamine in dry acetone. The thio-urea group is in the thio-amide form. The trans-cis geometry of the thio-urea group is stabilized by intra-molecular hydrogen bonding between the carbonyl and cis-thio-amide and results in a pseudo-S(6) planar ring which makes

Microstructure of chemically modified wood using X-ray computed tomography in relation to wetting properties [PDF]
X-ray computed tomography (XCT) was utilized to visualize and quantify the 2D and 3D microstructure of acetylated southern yellow pine (pine) and maple, as well as furfurylated pine samples. The total porosity and the porosity of different cell types, as

Poly(furfuryl alcohol)-Polycaprolactone Blends [PDF]
Poly(furfuryl alcohol) (PFA) is a bioresin synthesized from furfuryl alcohol (FA) that is derived from renewable saccharide-rich biomass. In this study, we compounded this bioresin with polycaprolactone (PCL) for the first time, introducing new functional polymer blends.
