Three-level hierarchical micro/nanostructures on biopolymers by injection moulding using low-cost polymeric inlays
(Springer Nature, 2023-01-01)
Article
Open AccessThe industrial interest in the patterning of polymeric surfaces at the micro/nanoscale to include new functionalities has considerably increased during the last years. Hierarchical organization of micro/nanometric surface ... -
Antibacterial lignin-based nanoparticles and their use in composite materials
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2022-10-11)
Article
Open AccessLignin, one of the most abundant biopolymers on earth, has been traditionally considered a low-value by-product of the pulp and paper industries. This renewable raw material, besides being a source of valuable molecules ... -
Antibacterial properties and mechanisms of action of sonoenzymatically synthesized lignin-based nanoparticles
(2022-08-12)
Article
Open AccessIn recent years, lignin has drawn increasing attention for different applications due to its intrinsic antibacterial and antioxidant properties, coupled with biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, chemical ... -
Recent advances in poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) hydrogels and derivatives as promising materials for biomedical and engineering emerging applications
(2023-02-23)
Article
Open AccessTemperature-sensitive (thermosensitive) hydrogels, which are part of the family of stimulus-sensitive hydrogels, consist of water-filled polymer networks that display a temperature-dependent degree of swelling. Thermosensitive ... -
Lignin-based nanoparticles as both structural and active elements in self-assembling and self-healing multifunctional hydrogels for chronic wound management
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-11-30)
Article
Open AccessEfficient wound healing is feasible when the dressing materials simultaneously target multiple factors causing wound chronicity, such as deleterious proteolytic and oxidative enzymes and bacterial infection. Herein, entirely ... -
Optimization and testing of hybrid 3D printing vitrimer resins
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-11-24)
Article
Open AccessThe quality of photocure-based 3D printing greatly depends on the properties of the photoresin. There are still many challenges to be overcome at the material level before such additive manufacturing methods dominate the ... -
Multifunctional scaffolds based on emulsion and coaxial electrospinning incorporation of hydroxyapatite for bone tissue regeneration
(2022-12-01)
Article
Open AccessTissue engineering is nowadays a powerful tool to restore damaged tissues and recover their normal functionality. Advantages over other current methods are well established, although a continuous evolution is still necessary ... -
Hydroxyapatite-based catalysts for CO2 fixation with controlled selectivity towards C2 products. Phenomenal support or active catalyst?
(Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2022-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyPermanently polarized hydroxyapatite (p-HAp) has been reported as a feasible green alternative to conventional catalysts for the selective conversion of CO2 into highly valuable chemical products. However, structural control ... -
Tailorable nanoporous hydroxyapatite scaffolds for electrothermal catalysis
(American Chemical Society, 2022-01-01)
Article
