Novel green production of natural-like vanilla extract from curcuminoids

Evamaria Hofmann et al.

Summary: The demand for natural vanilla extract, specifically vanillin, is much higher than current production due to the labor-intensive process of vanilla bean cultivation and vanillin extraction. To meet this demand, most vanillin used today is synthetically produced, contrary to the trend towards bio-based products. This study focuses on synthesizing nature-based vanillin from the more accessible rhizomes of Curcuma longa, which also produces vanillic acid and p-hydroxybenzaldehyde found in natural vanilla beans. Visible light and food-grade chemicals are utilized for the extraction and conversion of curcuminoids to flavors. The use of a binary mixture of ethanol and triacetin, as well as a surfactant-free microemulsion consisting of water, ethanol, and triacetin, achieves extraction results exceeding those reported in the literature for Soxhlet extraction of vanilla beans by a factor of more than 7.

Mechanical, Thermal and Wear Behavior of SiC Particle Strengthening of PMMA-Toughened Glass-Epoxy Hybrid Composite

V. Ravi Raj et al.

Summary: The research focused on the effect of silicon carbide particle reinforcement on polymethyl methacrylate-toughened glass-epoxy composite, showing that the addition of PMMA and SiC improved the tensile and flexural strength and modulus. Additionally, SiC content in the composites contributed to lower specific wear rate and coefficient of friction, enhancing the toughness of the materials.

Spontaneous Ouzo Emulsions Coexist with Pre-Ouzo Ultraflexible Microemulsions

Sylvain Prevost et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the spontaneous emulsions produced by dilution with water can be stable over days even without surfactants, polymers, or particles. The Ouzo effect, obtained by rapid dilution from an identified pre-Ouzo domain, involves weak aggregates and a surface layer enriched in a hydrotrope. Investigations show that when the emulsion is stable, coexisting phases are ternary solutions structured at the nanometer scale.

Synthesis of highly porous polymer microspheres with interconnected open pores for catalytic microreactors

Dae Hwan Kim et al.

Summary: A simple method for producing highly porous polystyrene (PS) microspheres with interconnective open pores was proposed by dispersing PS seed particles in an oil-in-water emulsion system. The study systematically investigated the morphological changes of PS microspheres in different oil-in-water emulsions, and identified the best system for synthesizing highly porous PS microspheres. These porous microspheres showed promising potential as a supporting material for catalysis applications, with high porosity, large surface area, and good chemical stability.
