In the past few years, a new passion for the growth of biodegradable polymers based on
elements derived from natural sources has been getting much attention. Natural fiber‐based …

Any new product that we develop for the world should undergo a life cycle analysis (LCA)
from birth to death. Environmental impact can be enhanced by lowering reliance on the …

Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) employed as reinforcement of polymeric matrices can
increase elastic modulus, stiffness and strength of a composite. In this work, the assessment …

Nowadays, the interest of the world toward nanocellulose materials has been incredibly
increased for the development of high value products owing to the unique and potentially …

The purpose of this research was to develop “green” materials by combining poly (lactic
acid)(PLA) with two agricultural by-products, namely flax seed meal (FSM) and rapeseed …

The current research determines the most recent developments in natural fibres reinforced
polylactic acid composites. Polylactic acid (PLA) is derived from renewable resources and is …

Polyurethane (PU) membranes was prepared using electrospinning followed by
modification with 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) by radiation-induced grafting (RIG) …

Food packages and kitchen utensils made of thermoplastic are very popular due to their low
production costs. However, thermoplastic is easily degraded at high temperatures and has …

One way to address environmental problems caused by the use of synthetic materials is by
exploring the potential of new materials that are more environmentally friendly. This …
