• Sustainability assessments of bio-based polymers (2013, background): “Current applications of polymers made with PDO include carpeting, apparel, and films, which are reported to outperform traditional petroleum-based materials [30].”
• Value-adding to cellulosic ethanol: lignin polymers. (2011, methodology): “This monomer can then be used to prepare poly(trimethylene terephthalate), a polyester which is traditionally synthesised by the polycondensation of trimethylene glycol with either terephthalic acid or dimethyl terephthalate (Kurian, 2005; Kurian and Liang, 2008).”
