Bi-functional biobased packing of the cassava starch, glycerol, licuri nanocellulose and red propolis. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to characterize and determine the bi-functional efficacy of active packaging films produced with starch (4%) and glycerol (1.0%), reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals (0-1%) and activated with alcoholic extracts of red ...

Efficient color coatings for single junction and multijunction colored solar cells [PDF]
Colored solar cells suffer from lower efficiency due to reflection and absorption losses by coatings. By studying different types of coatings on solar cells, the spectrum parameters impacting the solar cell efficiency were identified. A collection of color coatings was fabricated and characterized using spectrophotometry and colorimetric photography ...

Role of sonication pre-treatment and cation valence in nano-cellulose suspensions sol-gel transition [PDF]
Sol-gel transition of carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals is investigated using rheology, SAXS, NMR and optical spectroscopies to unveil the distinctive roles of ultrasounds treatment and ions addition. Besides cellulose fibers fragmentation, sonication treatment induces fast gelling of the solution. Gelation is induced independently on the addition of

Structurally Colored Physically Unclonable Functions with Ultra‐Rich and Stable Encoding Capacity
This study reports a design strategy for generating bright‐field resolvable physically unclonable functions with extremely rich encoding capacity coupled with outstanding thermal and chemical stability. The optical response emerges from thickness‐dependent structural color formation in ZnO features, which are fabricated by physical vapor deposition ...
