Melt processing of polymer biocomposites

open access: yesPolímeros, 2015
A coupled device extruder and injection moulding were used to prepare biocomposites in order to provide a continuous and large-scale production, and overcome the fiber degradation inside the extruder.

Nanocellulose-Based Thermoplastic Polyurethane Biocomposites with Shape Memory Effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
In 2020, we published a review on the study of semi-crystalline thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers and composites based on the shape memory effect. The shape recovery ability of such polymers is determined by their sensitivity to temperature, moisture,

Soft Hypoxia-Adaptive Bioelectronics Integrating PEDOT:PSS/Polydopamine/Enzyme Biocomposites for Closed-Loop Therapeutics of Chronic Wounds. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Hypoxia‐adaptive bioelectronics based on poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)/polydopamine (PDA)/enzyme biocomposites couple O2‐centric biosensing with embedded O2 therapy to address oxygen‐deficient chronic wounds. Local O2 provision restores enzyme‐based metabolite sensing, while catalase‐mediated oxygen generation and

Thermal properties and non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of biocomposites based on poly(lactic acid), rice husks and cellulose fibres

open access: yes, 2020
Bioplastics reinforced by agricultural waste fibres show promise to provide degradation back into the environment when they are no longer needed. These biocomposites have the potential to replace synthetic polymers from non-renewable resources in some ...

A perspective on biodegradable polymer biocomposites - from processing to degradation

open access: yesFunctional Composite Materials, 2023
Given the greater global awareness of environmental impacts of plastics and the need to develop alternative materials from renewable natural resources, there has been an increasing drive over recent years to develop biobased and biodegradable composites,
