Bioinspired Ultrastrong and Ion‐Selective Gel Electrolytes by Interfacial Coacervation for High‐Performance Lithium‐Metal Batteries

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
An ultrastrong, hierarchically nanoporous gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) was fabricated via poly(ionic liquid)‐induced interfacial coacervation of cellulose nanofibrils. Its cascade ion‐conduction network enables dual‐mode Li⁺ transport via nanoconfinement and interstitial hopping. The GPE enables stable cycling of high mass loading battery (LiFePO₄, 16

Biomimetic spatial and temporal (4D) design and fabrication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We imagine the built environment of the future as a ‘bio-hybrid machine for living in’ that will sense and react to activities within the space in order to provide experiences and services that will elevate quality of life while coexisting seamlessly ...

Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC): pullulan bionanocomposite films [PDF]

open access: yesCellulose, 2014
The aim of this work was to develop and characterize microfibrillated cellulose (MFC)/pullulan bionanocomposites. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy suggested that the affinity between the two polymers resulted in new hydrogen bonding of the nanocomposite materials compared to pristine pullulan.

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.

The viscoelastic properties of some Guianese woods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Samples of tension wood and opposite wood were obtained from four species (#Iyranthera sagotiana#, #Ocotea guyanensis#, #Virola micheli#i, #Sextonia rubra#) growing in the tropical rainforest of French Guiana. Dynamic mechanical analysis was performed in

Enhancing Plateau Capacity of Binder‐Free and Self‐Supported Napkin‐Based Hard Carbon Anodes for Sodium‐Ion Batteries Via a Pre‐Oxidation Modulation Strategy

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Precise regulation of preoxidation time and carbonization temperature in biomass napkin‐derived hard carbon generates abundant closed pores and ultramicropores, significantly enhancing the capacity in the low‐potential plateau region (the high plateau capacity of 266 mAh g−1) and thereby achieving highly reversible sodium‐ion storage (395 mAh g−1 at 30

Extraction of cellulose from bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris Schrad. ex J.C. Wendl.) for bio-foam applications

open access: yesAdvances in Bamboo Science
Cellulose bio-foam (CBF) was developed using bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris Schrad. ex J.C. Wendl.) cellulose with varying fibre content concentrations (0 %, 10 % and 20 %) incorporated with starch and glycerol through the evaporative drying method.
