Agglomeration during reactive extrusion of particle-based biomass pellets [PDF]
EPJ Web of ConferencesCreating mechanically sound aggregates from powder or grain-like feedstocks is a fundamental challenge across industries. One example is the production of pellets from organic materials, like wood residues and cereal grains, for biofuel and animal feed ...

Investigation of the Reaction Kinetics of Poly(butylene terephthalate) and Epoxide Chain Extender
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2023 Polyesters, such as poly (butylene terephthalate) (PBT), owe a rather low melt strength, which is considered as not beneficial for foaming. To overcome this issue, a typical attempt is the incorporation of chemical modifications—so‐called chain extenders

Esters of Cinnamic Acid as Green Plasticizers for Polylactide Formulations with Improved Ductility
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2023 This study demonstrates the potential of different cinnamate esters, namely methyl trans‐cinnamate (MC), isobutyl cinnamate (IBC), allyl cinnamate (AC), and ethyl cinnamate (EC), as environmentally friendly plasticizers for polylactide (PLA). Plasticized
