Functionalized silicone polymers incorporating segments formed from medium-chain fatty acids are generally disclosed herein. Methods of using such compounds, for example, as surfactants, are also disclosed herein, as well as methods of making such compounds, for example, from medium-chain fatty acids derived from natural oils.

Functionalized silicone polymers and methods of making and using the same

Segmented silicone polymers incorporating segments formed from medium-chain fatty acids are generally disclosed herein. Methods of using such compounds, for example, as surfactants, are also disclosed herein, as well as methods of making such compounds, for example, from medium-chain fatty acids derived from natural oils.

Segmented silicone polymers and methods of making and using the same

Silane compounds derived from medium-chain fatty acids are generally disclosed herein. Methods of using such compounds, for example, as compatibilizing agents, are also disclosed herein, as well as methods of making such compounds, for example, from medium-chain fatty acids derived from natural oils.

Organosilane compounds and methods of making and using the same

Polyester compositions are disclosed herein, as well as methods of making and using such polyesters. In some embodiments, the polyesters are formed from monomers derived from natural oils. In some embodiments, the polyesters have lower glass transition temperatures than polyesters of comparable molecular weight.

Renewably derived polyesters and methods of making and using the same

Compositions having low quantities of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and uses thereof are generally disclosed. In some embodiments, the compositions are aqueous compositions, such as aqueous suspensions, suitable for use as coating or paint compositions. In some embodiments, the compositions are aqueous compositions that include, among other components, a film-forming polymer and a coalescing aid. In some embodiments, the coalescing aids are derived from a renewable feedstock. Methods and systems for making such compositions are also disclosed. Novel coalescing aids are also disclosed.

Low-VOC compositions and methods of making and using the same

The present disclosure generally provides compounds useful for treating cancer. In some aspects, the disclosure provides small-molecule cytotoxins that are chemically modified to include one or more moieties that include hydrophobic portions. In some embodiments, the disclosure provides small-molecule cytotoxins that are chemically modified with fatty acid-containing moieties. In some aspects, the disclosure provides compositions, such as pharmaceutical compositions, that include such modified small-molecule cytotoxins and a protein. In some embodiments, the protein is albumin or an albumin mimetic. Further, the disclosure provides various uses of these compounds and compositions.

Modified cytotoxins and their therapeutic use

Alkoxylated fatty acids are disclosed herein, as well as methods of making and using such compounds. In some embodiments, the alkoxylated fatty acids are formed from monomers derived from natural oils. In some embodiments, the alkoxylated fatty acids are used as surfactants for making synthetic latex by emulsion polymerization. In some other embodiments, the alkoxylated fatty acids are used as surfactants for making synthetic rubber, such as styrene-butadiene rubber. In some other embodiments, the alkoxylated fatty acids are used as surfactants in a composition for treatment of gas or oil wells, for cleaning applications, for use in various laundry-related applications, for use in personal care compositions, or for use as solvents for coating applications, such as reactive and non-reactive waterborne coating applications.

Alkoxylated unsaturated fatty acids and uses thereof

Dibasic esters (diesters) and their use in plasticizer compositions are generally disclosed. In some embodiments, the diesters are branched-chain esters of long-chain alkanedioic acids, such as octadecanedioic acid. In some embodiments, such plasticizer compositions are used to increase the plasticity of a polymer resin, such as a vinyl chloride resin or poly vinyl butyral. In some other embodiments, such plasticizer compositions are used to lower the glass transition temperature of a polymer resin. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the plasticizer is derived from a renewable source, such as a natural oil.

Dibasic esters and the use thereof in plasticizer compositions

A method of isomerizing methyl 9-decenoate in a reaction mixture, and forming methyl 8-decenoate, and reacting the methyl 8-decenoate by metathesis to form 1,16-dimethyl 8-hexadecenedioate, and hydrogenating 1,16-dimethyl 8-hexadecenedioate to form 1,16-dimethyl hexadecanedioate. In some embodiments, the 1,16-dimethyl hexadecanedioate can be converted to hexadecanedioic acid.

Methods of making functionalized internal olefins and uses thereof

Polyol esters of metathesized fatty acids are generally disclosed herein. Methods of using such compounds, for example, as cleaning agents, solvents, and coalescents for paints and coatings, are also disclosed.

Polyol esters of metathesized fatty acids and uses thereof

This invention relates to unsaturated polyol esters that can be used in hydraulic fluid applications, including fire-resistant hydraulic fluid applications, marine hydraulic fluid applications, metalworking fluid applications, food grade fluid applications, and transformer fluid applications, and methods for making the same.

Unsaturated polyol esters used in hydraulic fluid applications

Polyurethane compositions are disclosed herein, as well as methods of making and using such polyesters. In some embodiments, the polyurethanes are formed from monomers derived from natural oils. In some embodiments, the polyurethanes are formed without the use of monomers bearing isocyanate groups.

Non-isocyanate polyurethanes and methods of making and using the same
