  • Publication number: 20180118900
    Abstract: The invention relates to a material comprising: a first crosslinked polymer forming a network, and a second linear polymer comprising n monomers, each of the monomers having the following formula I: (I), where m varies from 0 to 4, R is selected from hydrogen, an ethyl group and an alkyl group, and n is a non-zero natural integer, said material being such that it forms a semi-interpenetrating network wherein the second linear polymer is entangled in the network of the first polymer.

  • Publication number: 20100041115
    Abstract: The invention concerns a method for producing dicarboxylic acids (DCA) with long hydrocarbon chains, also called diacids, which consists in culturing a mutant strain of Yarrowia lipolytica obtained by mutagenesis directed and more particularly disrupted at least for the POX2, POX3, POX4 and POX5 genes encoding acyl-CoA oxydase, in a medium consisting essentially of an energetic substrate including at least one carbon source and one nitrogen source and in subjecting said strain to a bioconversion substrate selected among n-alkanes of at least 10 carbon atoms, fatty acids of at least 10 carbon atoms, their alkyl esters and natural oils.
