  2. Furfuryl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furfuryl_alcohol

    Furfuryl alcohol is manufactured industrially by hydrogenation of furfural, which is itself typically produced from waste bio-mass such as corncobs or sugar cane bagasse. As such furfuryl alcohol may be considered a green chemical. [5] One-pot systems have been investigated to produce furfuryl alcohol directly from xylose using solid acid ...

  3. Furfural - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furfural

    Furfural remained relatively obscure until 1922, [6] when the Quaker Oats Company began mass-producing it from oat hulls. [18] Today, furfural is still produced from agricultural byproducts like sugarcane bagasse and corn cobs. The main countries producing furfural today are the Dominican Republic, South Africa and China.

  4. 5-Amino-1-pentanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5-Amino-1-pentanol

    5-Amino-1-pentanol is an amino alcohol with a primary amino group and a primary hydroxy group at the ends of a linear C 5-alkanes.As a derivative of the platform chemical furfural (that is easily accessible from pentoses), 5-amino-1-pentanol may become increasingly important in the future as a building block for biodegradable polyesteramides and as a starting material for valerolactam — the ...

  5. Azeotrope tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azeotrope_tables

    This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.

  6. Furfurylamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furfurylamine

    Furfurylamine is an aromatic amine typically formed by the reductive amination of furfural with ammonia. [1] The pharmaceutical drug furtrethonium, a parasympathomimetic cholinergic, is a trimethyl ammonium derivative of furfurylamine. Furfurylamine also has use in the synthesis of Barmastine.

  7. Hydroxymethylfurfural - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxymethylfurfural

    Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), also known as 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural, is an organic compound formed by the dehydration of reducing sugars. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] It is a white low-melting solid (although commercial samples are often yellow) which is highly soluble in both water and organic solvents.

  8. Alcohol consumption recommendations - Wikipedia

    Recommends an alcohol consumption level of zero grams. 10 g "The Health Council of the Netherlands included a guideline for alcohol consumption in the Dutch dietary guidelines 2015 (DDG-2015), which is as follows: ‘Don’t drink alcohol or no more than one glass daily’." "In the Netherlands, one regular glass of an alcoholic beverage ...

  9. Furan resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furan_resin

    Formation of furan resin from furfuryl alcohol. Components produced by sand casting. Furan resins serve as binders for the casting moulds. Furan resin refers to polymers produced from various furan compounds, [1] of which the most common starting materials are furfuryl alcohol and furfural. In the resin and in the cured polyfurfurol, the furan ...
