Characterization of Environmentally Sustainable Resole Phenolic Resins Synthesized with Plant-based Bioresources [PDF]
“Green” resole phenolic resins for laminating applications were synthesized, and their properties and thermal stability were determined. The plant-based cardanol and condensed tannin were used as the partial substitutes of up to 40% of the phenol in the ...

Plant Resins-Chemistry, Evolution Ecology and Ethnobotany [PDF]
Plant resins are often something ornamental horticulturists either ignore or endure-particularly when they clog up pruners. This book gives a different view-a rhyme and reason as to why plants produce resins and how generations of people have used resins for economic or personal benefit.

Transition of plant resins from the biosphere to the lithosphere
In the article the authors consider in detail the process of transition of plant resins from the biosphere to the lithosphere, characterize the conditions and paleogeographic situation of such transition, the formation of deposits of resin minerals and ...

Species-level determination of closely related araucarian resins using FTIR spectroscopy and its implications for the provenance of New Zealand amber [PDF]
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

Tree resin composition, collection behavior and selective filters shape chemical profiles of tropical bees (Apidae: Meliponini). [PDF]
The diversity of species is striking, but can be far exceeded by the chemical diversity of compounds collected, produced or used by them. Here, we relate the specificity of plant-consumer interactions to chemical diversity applying a comparative network ...

Recent advances in Fenton-like treatment of radioactive ion exchange resins
Ion exchange resins (IERs) are widely used to remove radioactive contaminants from various commercial nuclear power plant systems. After the completion of their useful life cycle, IERs are removed from the nuclear facility and are known as spent resins ...
