ABSTRACT

The research work has inspired the creation of a wide variety of compositions that are focused on the hunt for biodegradable polymers. Numerous combinations of biodegradable polymers have been effectively employed in the process of eliminating impurities. The nanocomposite material is synthesis by reaction of starch with (m–xylene diisocyanate to form urethanic linkage and graphene is use to form polyurethane and nanocomposite. The synthesised nanocomposite undergoes a comprehensive characterization process, utilizing techniques such as FTIR, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and TGA. These analyses serve to provide valuable insights into the structural and thermal properties of the newly formed material. Particularly noteworthy is the material's potential for applications in adsorption. polyurethane and nanocomposite are applied for the purification of crude biodiesel. Synthesis of biodiesel is by acid-catalysed transesterification of Karanja oil. Nanocomposite show better result as compared to polyurethane for removal of acid value of biodiesel. Keywords: Polyurethane, Biodiesel, Polyols, Treatment of Biodiesel, Diisocyanates, Graphene
