Application

Lauroyl chloride was used:
  • as tailoring agent for chemical modification of nanocelluloses of different length, nanofibrillated cellulose and cellulose nanocrystals[1]
  • in the preparation of acylated collagen with water solubility and better surface activity[2]
  • as organic low-friction boundary lubricant in the preparation of novel polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel[3]
  • in the synthesis of hemicellulose-based hydrophobic biomaterials[4]

    A novel material design was developed by functionalizing polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel with an organic low-friction boundary lubricant (molar ratios of 0.2, 0.5, and 1.0 moles of lauroyl chloride). The hydrogels were fabricated using two different techniques. First, the boundary lubricant

    Nanocelluloses are bio-based nanoparticles of interest as stabilizers for oil-in-water (o/w) Pickering emulsions. In this work, the surface chemistry of nanocelluloses of different length, nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC, long) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC, short), was successfully tailored by chemical modification with

    Self-assembly of surfactants is influenced by various intermolecular interactions and molecular structure, which dictate packing of molecules in the aggregate and its microstructure. Hydrogen-bonding between amide groups plays a key role in the self-assembly process of N-acyl amino acid surfactants
