Abstract: Cottonseed oil residue (COR) is a by-product of cottonseed extracted by prepressing or direct solvent extraction. The protein content of COR can reach 50% and higher, but it has not been effectively utilized. In this study, bio-based adhesives were synthesized from COR, maleic anhydride, and urea. The obtained adhesives were then analyzed by Fourie... Show More
