摘要:
Compositions comprising 1,3-propanediol and an extraction product are provided, and the 1,3-propanediol in the composition is biologically derived. Also provided are processes for extracting an extract from a source. These processes comprise providing 1,3-propanediol and mixing the 1,3-propanediol with the source. This serves to extract the extract from the source into the 1,3-propanediol. The processes also include separating the source from the ester and extract.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are biodegradable compositions comprising 1,3-propanediol, wherein the 1,3-propanediol in said biodegradable composition has a bio-based carbon content of about 1% to 100%. In addition, it is preferred that the 1,3-propanediol be biologically-derived, and wherein upon blodegradation, the biologically-derived 1,3-propanediol contributes no anthropogenic CO2 emissions to the atmosphere.
