ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 5, September 2026.This study develops a novel non‐combustible chitosan‐based bioplastic (NCCB) via ethanol‐induced surface assembly. The material's inherent flame retardancy and thermally insulating, rough surface enable high‐performance TENGs. The NCCB‐TENG maintains stable output even when exposed to fire and exhibits dual sensitivity to temperature (25–200°C) and ...

Toward Plastic‐Free Vineyards: The Role of Bioplastics in Sustainable Viticulture—A Review
Polymers for Advanced Technologies, Volume 37, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Agricultural value chains consume more than 12.5 Mt. of plastics annually, and vineyard systems are a notable source of short‐lived plastic waste. In viticulture, conventional plastics improve agricultural efficiency, crop protection, and wine quality, but their widespread use raises environmental and health concerns.
