SBIR Phase I: Versatile Biobased Plastics from Omega-hydroxylated fatty acids
Award Year / Program / Phase:
2012 / SBIR / Phase I
Agency:
NSF
Principal Investigator:
Jiali Cai – (718) 260-3408
Award Amount:
$149,976.00
Abstract:
This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project will create a family of bioplastics containing omega-hydroxyfatty acid (omega-HOFAs) repeat units to fill a gap in commercially available bioplastics. First, the effects of omega-HOFA chain length on corresponding polymer (P[omega-HOFA])… More
