The syntheses of novel dendrimers composed of glycerol and succinic acid are described. These “biodendrimers” are composed entirely of building blocks known to be biocompatible or degradable in vivo ...

Several alternatives have been considered to minimize the environmental impact caused by conventional polymers. This study aims to evaluate the chemical, mechanical and morphological properties of ...

Natural ester insulating oil, as a kind of environmentally friendly liquid dielectric with high ignition point, has been well used in engineering applications in distribution transformers. The ...

Some new research breaks down cases of glycerol intoxication syndrome in children after consuming slushies. Here's what doctors have to say about the findings.

These include the following: the adhesive hydroabietic acid (an industrial derivative of colophony); [2] a glycerol ester of hydrogenated abietic acid; [3] a wood rosin derivative used as an ...

To get enhanced dielectric properties of natural ester dielectric liquids, many studies propose using nano-additives to form what are called nanofluids. This comprehensive review presents the effect ...

The bonding performance of a glycerol phosphate dimethacrylate (GPDM)-based, two-step, self-etch (SE) adhesive was experimentally compared to that of 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate (MDP) ...
