Balancing Sustainability and Performance: Bio‐Based Epoxy Systems for Durable Flax Fiber‐Reinforced Composites

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 4, Page 3154-3172, 20 February 2026.
Bio‐based epoxy systems enabling sustainable, durable, and high‐performance flax fiber composites. ABSTRACT Three bio‐based epoxy systems—Polar Bear, Green Turtle, and Plankton—featuring bio‐carbon contents of 28% to 70%, were combined with recyclable (Recyclamine R101) and non‐recyclable hardeners to produce flax fiber‐reinforced biocomposites.

Artichoke Bracts and Stems Residues as Active Filler for Poly(Butylene Succinate‐Co‐Adipate) (PBSA) Composites: From Agro‐Waste to a New Sustainable Material

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 2376-2392, 10 February 2026.
PBSA‐based biocomposites made from artichoke bract and stem powders have been characterised and formulated for agricultural and food applications, such as active mulching films. ABSTRACT In the context of a growing bioeconomy and the drive for sustainable materials, new biocomposites were formulated by incorporating poly(butylene succinate‐co‐adipate) (

All‐Round Talent: Unique Zinc Guanidine Catalyst Performs Efficiently in Synthesis and Chemical Recycling of (Bio)Polyesters

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
A new zinc hybrid guanidine catalyst [Zn{(R,R)TMGNMe2(1,2)ch}2](OTf)2 (C1) shows very high catalytic activity in the polymerization of cyclic esters and in the depolymerization of these polyesters. Using C1 in the ring‐opening polymerization of lactide and caprolactone under industrially relevant conditions, astonishing rate constants of the same order

Transitioning of the Chemical Industry Toward a Net‐Zero Carbon Dioxide Emission Path

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 4, 22 January 2026.
One way to reduce the greenhouse gas footprint of the chemical industry to almost zero would be the production of the platform molecules C1‐compounds, olefins, aromatics, and ammonia by non‐fossil pathways. The rest of the chemical production chains could be essentially left unchanged, provided the process energy input is renewable.

An economic perspective of the circular bioeconomy in the food and agricultural sector

Communications Earth & Environment
Transforming the agri-food system from a “take-make-waste”, or linear production system, to a circular bioeconomy that reduces, recycles, recovers, reuses, and regenerates wastes and transitions from fossil to biobased fuels and products is being hailed ...
