Epoxy is widely used in industry and has a wide range of applications, including material
coating, electronics, adhesives, and fiber-reinforced plastics, but its production from fossil …

The gradual depletion of fossil fuel reserves and the sharp rise in the cost of fossil fuels have
generated a frenzy of activities in the quest to search for renewable source-based …

Unsaturated fatty acids contained in vegetable oils can be used as a raw material to produce
epoxy through epoxidation reactions. This study aims to obtain the optimum conditions for …

Epoxidation of the unsaturated fatty acids (UFA) in Tung oil provides a very interesting
opportunity in the research and development of advanced materials. Tung oil is one of non …

Epoxidation is a reaction of a carbon double bond with active oxygen, which results in the
addition of an oxygen atom, converting the original double bond into a three-membered …

The synthesis of vegetable oil-based polyols has been carried out through the epoxidation-
hydroxylation process. However, Tung oil has never been explored in the process, even …

Vegetable oils are rich in unsaturated bonds that can be converted to epoxidized oleic acid.
They are considered sustainable, renewable, and also environmentally friendly. To date …

The stages of the double bond epoxidation process of tamanu oil include (1) the process of
making peroxyacetic acid (PAA),(2) the mass transfer of several components, and (3) the …

Tung oil is a non-edible vegetable oil that has a high level of unsaturated fatty acids. From
the results of the GC-MS analysis, the iodine value of Tung oil was found to be around …

Global raw material use has moved from a non-renewable to a renewable resource.
Additionally, the research on epoxidation has produced a safer, more cost-effective, and …
