Brief Project Summary:

The overall goal of this project is to develop a cost-competitive technology for soy hull-glycerol derived nanostructured materials. This goal will be met by completing the following objectives: experiment with varied formulations; evaluate mechanical and sorption properties of soy hull based nanostructured materials; and assess stability of the materials under varied environmental conditions.

Information And Results
Final Project Results

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
