Systems, methods, and compositions for improved warm-forming of light metal alloys, such as aluminum alloys, magnesium alloys, or titanium alloys, are disclosed. The systems and methods relate to pulse thermal processing, engineered plastic deformation, and micro-aging processes, as well as to the application of multi-functional lubricants. The disclosed multifunctional lubricant compositions provide a number of advantages when used in warm-forming processes, and in one embodiment, include organo-titanates and magnesium hydroxide, and in other embodiments an organo-titanate, magnesium hydroxide and boron nitride.

Compositions and integrated processes for advanced warm-forming of light metal alloys

Disclosed are compositions and methods for the production of mono-esters and di-esters from the reaction of HMF and a reactant selected from a diacid or a diacid derivative; typical reactants are PAN, phthaloyl dichloride, dimethyl phthalate, maleic acid, and maleic anhydride or mono-esters that can be prepared from HMF and MAN.

Esters of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and methods for their preparation

New polyols; oligomers, and polymers made from the polyols; and binders made from the new polyols, oligomers, or polymers that can be used in binders, where the binders typically include one or more polyols, and a polyfunctional acid or a polyfunctional nitrile.
