Abstract:
The production of biodiesel using vegetables oils is studied. Palm oil and its use for production of biodiesel have been focused. Palm tree is very productive and one of the most profitable for biodiesel production. Among the oilseed crops palm tree produce more oil per hectare. Palm oil has a good availability and a competitive price. The production of palm oil at the industrial plantation level has caused environmental damage. The Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil has established principles and criteria in order to certify a sustainable cultivation of the palm oil. The experimental work inv

During this project the catalytic hydrogenation of a mixture of fatty acids derivatives was performed in two different reactors (discontinuous batch and continuous flow); the attention was pointed out on the type of the catalyst employed, involving a screening among different noble metals and support with optimization of the reaction parameters. Interesting results were obtained in batch reactions with 0.3% wt Pd/C at 4 bar of H2 and 90°C, ensuring full conversion of the starting material and complete selectivity towards the saturated compounds.

Abstract:
Interest in using renewable raw materials to prepare biobased monomers, polymers, and materials is rapidly increasing. The goal of the research described is to develop branched polyesters of plant oil fatty acids, using different core pol yo ls (i.e. sucrose, dipentaerythritol, and tripentaerythritol) and plant oils (i.e. linseed, safflower, and soybean), into curing systems that have potential uses in applications such as coatings, composites, and adhesives. This study is mainly focused on the use of sucrose as the core polyol in the soyate resins. Sucrose esters and their derivatives have a

Abstract:
Cette thèse porte sur la synthèse de polyuréthanes thermoplastiques plus durables à partir de dérivés des huiles végétales. La première voie étudiée est basée sur la réaction, largement utilisée, entre un diol et un diisocyanate. Aussi, pour s’affranchir de l’utilisation des diisocyanates toxiques, une approche via la polyaddition entre un bis carbonate cyclique et une diamine a également été étudiée. Pour ce faire des précurseurs bi-fonctionnels : diols, bis carbonates cycliques à 5 et 6 chainons et diamines ont été préparés à partir de dérivés de l’huile de tournesol (oléate de méthyle) et d

Fatty acids with a <i>trans</i> double bond had an anti-aggregatory effect on collagen-induced aggregation but this was significantly less than that observed with the <i>cis</i> equivalent and was diminished as the dose of agonist increased.

Abstract:
En la actualitat, els poliuretans i els polièsters són dos dels materials polimèrics més importants ia que se poden utilitzar en multitud de camps donada la seva versatilitat. Els últims avenços en la investigació sobre aquest tipus de polímers venen donats per la creixent demanda de processos més sostenibles i l'ús de matèries primeras d'origen renovable. Algunes d'aquestes són els olis vegetals, com l'oli de ricí el qual no és apte per el consum humà. A partir d'aquest oli, s'obté l'àcid ricinoleic amb un rendiment elevat. Aquest àcid es converteix mitjançant piròlisi en àcid undecenoic i he

Abstract:
Vegeblocks are masonry units made from 100% waste materials. They use waste vegetable oil as a binder, and the manufacture process involves heat curing of a block made from a mixture of the binder and waste aggregates. Research into long-term properties and enhancement of the manufacture process of these units requires an understanding of the chemistry that occurs during this process. Analysis of the binder by a mixture of spectroscopy and chromatography indicates that the reactions are characterised by consumption of unsaturated hydrocarbons in the seed oils to form products of hydrolysis, cr
