The quest for environmentally friendly and sustainable materials in the production of fibre
reinforced composite materials has led to the use of biobased materials, which are easily …

The wood-based panel industry provides industrial-scale production of engineered wood
products for our daily life. In the production of wood-based panels, the most important input …

Bio-sourced wood adhesives are an alternative of actuality for petroleum-derived binders
used to-day in the timber industry. Inspired by the classical furfuryl alcohol (FA) acid …

Abstract Poly (furfuryl alcohol)–(PFA) is a biobased thermoset known for its highly
crosslinked structure. Bidimensional NMR (2D-NMR) was employed to give new insights on …

Abstract 3D sand printing, a binder jetting-based additive manufacturing process, can
directly produce sand molds with complex geometries for high-quality and lightweight metal …

The actual chemical structure of polyfurfuryl alcohol (PFA) is still uncertain in spite of several
studies on the topic, variations during the polymerization processes being one reason that …

The chemistry of biomass-derived furans is particularly sensitive to ring openings. These
side reactions occur during furfuryl alcohol polymerization. In this work, the furan ring …

Wood polyphenolic extracts, commonly called tannins, are excellent candidates for the
production of bioplastics due to their abundance in nature, their commercial availability, and …

Among the new generation of green polymers, furan monomers are occupying a strategic
role to produce both innovative biobased thermoplastic and thermoset. Herein, furfuryl …

Hydrolytic furan ring opening is exploited to open biobased furanic molecules into levulinic-
like platform molecules. However, the occurrence of ring opening in furanic …
