Commercial Scale Quantification of Lignin
Abstract: Lignin, an aromatic biopolymer, in the terrestrial lignocellulosic biomass constitutes the single largest and sustainable source of biofuels and biochemicals. The recalcitrant nature of lignin is a hindrance to its chemical or biochemical conversion. Moreover, its insolubility in water too is a major challenge in its quantification which is a necessary step prior to and after its conversion. Though there are celebrated quantification methods like the classical Klason lignin method …

Facile Approach to Epoxidize Elastomers & Its Silica Composite for Green Tyre Application
Abstract: Rubber epoxidation is usually carried out to serve dual purpose, to introduce the functionality, and to enhance the polymer – filler interaction. In general, epoxidation of elastomers having unsaturation in backbone adopt conventional refluxing and batch process which makes the synthesis complex as well as time consuming. In view of this, a novel process of epoxidation through sonication technique is identified as simple and efficient process. Synthetic rubbers containing unsaturation …

Experimental Study on Synthesis of Shear Thickening Fluid
Abstract: A novel class of nanosuspension material called shear thickening fluids (STFs) are created by dispersing micro- and nanoparticles in a dispersant. It is an intelligent material with excellent performance. When a modest shear rate is used, STFs are easily distorted. A material with noticeably improved characteristics is produced by this mixture (STF) of flowable and rigid components at a certain composition. Silica nanoparticles dispersed in a liquid polymer solution were …
