Chemical modifications through the oxypropylation reaction will be carried out on cellulose fibers to obtain different polyols, which will be used in the formulation of rigid polyurethane (PU) foams. The reactions will take place in an autoclave reactor, comparing compositions of modified and unmodified fibers. The success of the reaction will be evaluated by Fourier Transform Infrared Sp…
Chemical modification by hydroxypropylation reactions will be carried out in cassava starch and cellulose, to obtain a biocomposite of thermoplastic starch reinforced with lignocellulosic fibers from açaí residue. Hydroxypropylation will be performed in an autoclave reactor, where compositions with partially modified and unmodified fibers will be compared. The reaction success will be eva…

Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer in the world presenting an enormous chemical variability due to the functionalization of its hydroxyl groups. Furthermore, cellulose presents different morphologies that are found in a hierarchical structure constituent of the plants and can be presented in the form of fibers, microfibrils (MFC) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC). Cellulose microfib…
