Biodegradability, physical, mechanical and antimicrobial attributes of starch nanocomposites containing chitosan nanoparticles
Babaee, Mehran; Garavand, Farhad; Rehman, Abdur; Jafarazadeh, Shima; Amini, Elahe; Cacciotti, Ilaria (Elsevier, 2022-01-15)
Article
Open AccessThis study aimed to develop a plasticized starch (PS) based film loaded with chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs, 1, 2, 3, and 4%) as a reinforcing and antibacterial agent. We examined the morphology, biodegradability, mechanical, ... -
In situ synthesis of silver nanoparticles on fiber matrix for preparing antibacterial paper
Amini, Elahe; Azadfallah, Mohammad (2018-08-15)
Article
Open AccessIn this study, the preparation of antibacterial paper was carried out using in situ synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on bleached cellulosic fiber matrix through chemical reduction of silver nitrate (AgNO3) by two ... -
Ionic liquid, ultrasound-assisted synthesis of lignin nanoparticles for barrier-enhanced all-cellulose nanocomposite films
Amini, Elahe; Valls Vidal, Cristina; Roncero Vivero, María Blanca (Springer Nature, 2023-10-05)
Article
Open AccessThe primary purpose of this work was to develop novel all-cellulose nanocomposite (ACNC) films by following a green approach that uses an ionic liquid as solvent and requires no additional reducing agents or stabilizers. ... -
Ionic liquid-assisted the preparation of transparent cellulosic biocomposite films
Amini, Elahe (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2023-12-14)
Doctoral thesis
Open Access(English) Interest in new environmentally friendly cellulose-based products has tremendously increased in recent years. Cellulose-based composites come in various forms and have potential applications in construction, ... -
Ionic liquid/ZnO assisted preparation of high barrier cellulose nanocomposite films by in situ ring-opening polymerization of lactide monomers
Amini, Elahe; Valls Vidal, Cristina; Yousefi, Hossein; Roncero Vivero, María Blanca (Springer, 2023-01-03)
Article
Open AccessCellulose-based composites have aroused increasing interest as potential replacements for fossil fuel-based plastics. In this work, transparent cellulose-grafted-PLA nanocomposite films were prepared by grafting polylactide ... -
Ionic liquids-assisted bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass for the development of value-added products
Amini, Elahe; Valls Vidal, Cristina; Roncero Vivero, María Blanca (2021-10-11)
Article
Open AccessLignocellulosic biomass is the most abundant renewable and inexpensive source that can be used to produce biofuels and bioproducts. One of the major limitations of biomass valorisation is its recalcitrance to an efficient ... -
Promising nanocomposites for food packaging based on cellulose-PCL films reinforced by using ZnO nanoparticles in an ionic liquid
Amini, Elahe; Valls Vidal, Cristina; Roncero Vivero, María Blanca (Elsevier, 2023-03)
Article
Open AccessThe fact that most composites consist of polluting synthetic materials has prompted a search for biodegradable replacements based on cellulose fibers and polycaprolactone as potential packaging materials. In this work, we ... -
Silver-nanoparticle-impregnated cellulose nanofiber coating for packaging paper
Amini, Elahe; Azadfallah, Mohammad (2016-01-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn this study, antimicrobial packaging was prepared by mixing colloidal silver nanoparticles with cellulose nanofiber (CNF) and depositing this hybrid coating (CNF/Ag) as a layer on different paper substrates. The CNF/Ag-coated ... -
Using unbleached bagasse fibers for fabricating magnetic paper
Azadfallah, Mohammad; Gilan, Kajal Moradian; Mousavipazhouh, Hasan; Amini, Elahe; Hadilam, Mohammad Mahdi (2015)
Article
Open AccessMagnetic lignocellulosic fibers have good potential in applications such as information storage, security papers, electromagnetic shielding and etc. In this study unbleached bagasse fibers were used to fabricate magnetic ...
