Flax biorefining for paper production
(Springer, 2024-03-25)
Article
Open AccessIn this work, we assessed the potential of Cel6D, a recently reported exocellulase from Paenibacillus barcinonensis, as a biorefining agent for flax pulp. Pulp fibers were treated with this enzyme, Cel9B (an endocellulase ... -
Periodate oxidation of nanofibrillated cellulose films for active packaging applications
(Elsevier, 2024-04-16)
Article
Open AccessAn alternative packaging material based on cellulose that possesses excellent barrier properties and is potentially useful for active packaging has been developed. Cellulose nanofibril was efficiently and selectively ... -
Valorization of waste paper sludge as a sustainable source for packaging applications
(Springer Nature, 2024-07)
Article
Open AccessPaper sludge consists mainly of wet short cellulose fibers that are lost during papermaking and of residual chemicals used in the manufacturing process that remain dissolved in the water. Each ton of paper generates about ... -
Towards sustainable building solutions: Development of hemp shiv-based green insulation material
(2024-01-13)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThere is currently a growing need for sustainable and environmentally friendly materials. One promising candidate is hemp shiv, which is considered waste material. hemp shiv exhibits lightweight properties and high insulation ... -
Dissolving-grade pulp: a sustainable source for fiber production
(2024-01-10)
Article
Open AccessThe global textile fiber output increased five times from 1975 to 2020. Also, in 2010, the combined demand for man-made and natural fibers was projected to increase by 84% within 20 years. Clothing materials are largely ... -
Ionic liquid, ultrasound-assisted synthesis of lignin nanoparticles for barrier-enhanced all-cellulose nanocomposite films
(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. ... -
Promising nanocomposites for food packaging based on cellulose-PCL films reinforced by using ZnO nanoparticles in an ionic liquid
(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 ... -
Ionic liquid/ZnO assisted preparation of high barrier cellulose nanocomposite films by in situ ring-opening polymerization of lactide monomers
(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 ... -
Evaluating the potential of ozone in creating functional groups on cellulose
(Springer, 2022-08-01)
Article
Open AccessSeveral eucalyptus pulps (85% of cellulose) with different lignin and HexA content (unbleached, TCF and ECF) as well as cotton linters (97% of cellulose) were treated with ozone (at different pH and ozone doses) in order ... -
Composites of cellulose nanocrystals in combination with either cellulose nanofibril or carboxymethylcellulose as functional packaging films
(Elsevier, 2022-06-30)
Article
Open AccessCellulose nanocrystals (CNC) were mixed with either cellulose nanofibril (CNF) or carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) in variable proportions (0/100, 20/80, 40/60, 50/50, 60/40, 80/20 and 100/0) to obtain cast films with acceptable ... -
Compulsive sexual behavior online and non-online in adult male patients and healthy controls: comparison in sociodemographic, clinical, and personality variables
(Frontiers Media SA, 2022-05-03)
Article
Open AccessBackground and Aims: Compulsive sexual behavior (CSB) is characterized by a persistent pattern of failure to control sexual impulses, resulting in repetitive sexual behavior over a prolonged period that causes marked ... -
Ionic liquids-assisted bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass for the development of value-added products
(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 ...
