The researchers suggested that their results can be used to aid in selecting at what stage lignocellulose should be chemically modified so as to produce a viable biofuel molecule with optimal combustion characteristics and exhaust gas emissions. The furfurals can, in turn, be converted into several chemicals, polymers, bioalcohols (e.g.,

As a result, steering is light, and higher-speed cornering is firm, without any wallowing from the extra weight of the battery pack in the rear. Its heart is the exhaust manifold integrated into the cylinder head. The bottom shell of its housing is made of diecast aluminum, the top shell of polymer. Click to enlarge.

These areas of interest apply to light, medium and heavy duty on-road vehicles. . ($6M) For the purposes of this AOI, a carbon fiber composite is defined as a composite that combines carbon fiber with polymer resin. The fibers can be continuous or discontinuous and the resin can be either a thermoplastic or thermoset polymer.
