Surfactant‐Enhanced Electrospun Nanofiber Filters for Efficient Viral and Bacterial Inactivation
In this work, electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibrous filters functionalized with surfactants (CTAB, CPC, and SDS) were developed for air filtration applications. The PAN nanofiber mats enable efficient particulate matter capture while simultaneously providing antimicrobial and antiviral activity against bacteria (E. coli and S.

Polyethylene–Cellulose Composites From Cellulose Xanthate Solutions
An approach for fabricating cellulose/LDPE composites through cellulose dissolution, LDPE dispersion, and subsequent hot‐pressing. ABSTRACT This study reports a processing route for fabricating cellulose/LDPE composites involving the dispersion of polyethylene powder in a cellulose solution, followed by regeneration to form a continuous cellulose ...

Bleached and unbleached nanocelluloses were produced from the exhausted grape pomace and applied as coatings on PLA substrates for sustainable food packaging. Unbleached nanocelluloses were more hydrophobic and amorphous than bleached ones. The resulting bio‐based bleached nanocellulose‐coated PLA films showed a 68% reduction in O2 permeability ...

Development and Characterization of Cellulose Films Incorporating Vitamin A and E‐Loaded Liposomes
Liposome‐cellulose films deliver UV‐light shielding, wetting, and high rigidity for green tattoo aftercare. ABSTRACT This study introduces cellulose films enriched with vitamin A/E liposomes as sustainable, bioactive dressings for tattoo aftercare. Morphological analysis showed a smoother, more continuous microtexture than the neat cellulose films ...

GelMA/DMAEMA hybrid hydrogels for release of ibuprofen. ABSTRACT In this study, biocompatible hydrogels intended for topical delivery of ibuprofen were synthesized from gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) and 2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) by varying their proportions. The impact of different GelMA and DMAEMA ratios was comprehensively evaluated

Advantages of MMMs and the Robeson plot detailing improved performance of the 4d05% membrane. ABSTRACT Mixed matrix membranes were produced by incorporation of SSZ‐13 zeolites into polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to assess the effect of filler properties and concentration on the CO2/N2 separation efficiency compared to pure PDMS membranes.
