The Role of Cold Atmospheric Plasma in Surface Modification and Adhesion Behavior of Polypropylene/Flax Biocomposites

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Effects of plasma surface treatment on adhesive bonding of PP/flax biocomposites. ABSTRACT The emphasis on environmental sustainability has accelerated the adoption of biocomposites as alternatives to synthetic composites. However, their low surface energy may limit adhesion in bonding applications.

Canola Fiber as Reinforcement for Composites: Effect of Fiber Extraction and Processing Method on Fiber Properties, Nonwoven Manufacturing, and Composite Properties

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Comparison of canola fiber reinforced composites manufactured using water‐retted, field‐retted, and enzyme‐treated fibers. ABSTRACT Canola fibers obtained from discarded stalks through various processing methods, including water‐retting and field‐retting followed by mechanical decortication and enzymatic degradation, were utilized as discontinuous ...

Multilayer Cellulose Acetate–Viscose Films for Bio‐Based, Bio‐Degradable Packaging Applications

Packaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Cellulose acetate (CA) and cellulose foils stick together comprehensively after mild cellulose sodium hydroxide treatment and heated compression. For combined foils, water barrier properties correlate with CA thickness. Oxygen permeation suffers due to the sodium hydroxide pre‐treatment induced foil changes. The composite represents a biodegradable and

Lagrangian analysis of two flavours of Central European heatwaves: Formation under omega blocking versus initiation by subtropical ridges

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We investigate whether Central European heatwaves (HWs) forming under omega blocking differ from those enabled by subtropical ridges, in terms of both air‐mass origin and processes warming air parcels along their way. Using ERA5‐based backward trajectories and a Lagrangian temperature anomaly decomposition, we identify significant differences in the ...

On an Aggregation Theory for Indicators Expressing Behaviors of Complex Systems With an Application to Sustainability

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Certain attributes of large‐scale complex systems are often expressed through sets of indicators. For example, the sustainability of an entity, be it a nation, a city, an energy system, a corporation etc., can be effectively represented by indicators and corresponding data series.

Localising the Sustainable Development Goals. A Place‐Based Analysis of Sustainable Development in Rural and Urban Areas

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There are increasing calls for a place‐based approach towards the Sustainable Development Goals that show their territorial diversity at subnational level. Based on 33 indicators, covering 13 SDGs and aggregated in three sub‐indexes (economy, social and environment), this paper develops a Sustainable Development Index for Rural and Urban Areas
