A novel method of separating bio oil (pyrolysis oil) into oxygenated rich species and lignin/phenolic based species in a highly efficient manner is provided. Lignin and phenolic fractions can be separated from light oxygenates from bio oil by use of reversible &#x3b1;-hydroxysulfonic acid.

Method of separating lignin derived compounds from pyrolysis oil

A method of obtaining lipids from microbial biomass such as algae is provided by treating microbial biomass with a solution containing at least one &#x3b1;-hydroxysulfonic acid to extract and recover liposoluble components. The &#x3b1;-hydroxysulfonic acid can be easily removed from the product containing liposoluble components and recycled.

A water-dispersible curing agent for epoxy resins is prepared by the reaction of (a) an epoxy-functional compound obtained from the reaction of at least one epoxy resin and an amidoamine derived from the reaction of an acid-terminated polyalkylene glycol and a diamine in an active amine hydrogen:epoxy groups ratio of from 1:15 to 1:350, (b) at least one polyamine in an active amine hydrogen:epoxy groups ratio of from 2:1 to 30:1 which yields an amine-terminated product having an amine equivalent weight of at least 50, and, optionally, (c) a monoepoxy in a remaining active amine hydrogen:epoxy groups ratio of from 5:1 to

Epoxy-functional amidoamine reacted with excess polyamine and monoepoxy as epoxy curative

A process for partially oxidizing and converting a polyoxyalkylene polyol composition to a polycarboxylic acid composition comprising reacting a polyoxyalkylene polyol composition with a stable free radical nitroxide in the presence of an NO,generating compound, a flow of air or oxygen, and optionally water, at elevated temperatures. The oxidation reaction is discontinued by deactivating the catalyst and removing the source of air or oxygen, the NO,generating source, and the optional water. From 60% to no more than 95% of the polyoxyalkylene polyol composition is converted.
