  • Lubricating base oils from esterified alkoxylated polyols using saturated long-chain fatty acids
    Patent number: 11807826
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and compositions for making bio-based, biodegradable, and non-bioaccumulating lubricating base oils generated by esterifying alkoxylated polyols (average alkoxylation ?3) with long-chain (?C14) saturated and unsaturated fatty acids (FA) or fatty acids modified using industry recognized techniques.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 16, 2021
    Date of Patent: November 7, 2023
    Assignee: Universtiy of South Carolina
    Inventors: Zachary Hunt, Peter Gennaro, Jeffrey R. DiMaio, Benjamin Bergmann
  • BLENDS OF ESTERIFIED PROPOXYLATED GLYCEROL AND HIGHER MELTING POINT TRIGLYCERIDES
    Publication number: 20220132880
    Abstract: Certain characteristics of esterified propoxylated glycerol compositions and reduced-fat food products prepared therefrom may be modified and improved by combining such esterified propoxylated glycerol compositions with particular triglyceride compositions having higher melting points, wherein the melting and crystallization properties of each component are taken into account when selecting them for combination. For instance, EPG-based confectionary products having reduced issues with slump, blocking and demolding may be prepared by incorporating such a higher melting triglyceride composition, without compromising the organoleptic qualities of the resulting confectionary.
