Synergistic Advanced Oxidation and Physicochemical Treatment Strategies for Antibiotic Removal and Resistance Mitigation in Water

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...

Fabrication of Polypropylene/CNF Composite Foam by Foam Extrusion With Chemical Blowing Agent

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Polypropylene/CNF composite foams were fabricated by a foam extrusion process using a chemical foaming method. The addition of CNFs resulted in finer and higher‐density cell structures, even at low chemical blowing agent concentrations. Furthermore, X‐ray CT and SEM observations revealed a unique spike‐like cell structure generated by the penetration ...

Tailoring the Mechanical Properties of Nanocellulose/ABS Composites by Tuning the Grafting Density on Nanocellulose

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Tuning the surface grafting density of an amine‐terminated copolymer on cellulose nanofibers controls the fiber–matrix interface in melt‐compounded nanocellulose/ABS composites. Increasing grafting density builds a compliant nanoscale interphase that raises tensile toughness up to ~26‐fold while preserving stiffness and lowering thermal expansion ...

Fundamentals, Advances, and Applications of Electrospun Nanofibrous 3D Materials

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Three‐dimensional electrospun nanofibrous systems offer unique properties and microenvironments. These properties are determined by the fabrication strategies employed and can be adjusted by the incorporation of functional additives to achieve multifunctionality for specific applications. The applications range from the biomedical to the environmental,

Composition‐Tunable Lignocellulosic Aerogels From Eucalyptus spp. Bark for Oil and Cu2+ Adsorption

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Composition‐tunable lignocellulosic aerogels are produced from Eucalyptus spp. bark by combining cellulose, lignin, and microfibrillated cellulose without post‐synthetic functionalization. The resulting porous architectures show contaminant‐dependent performance: CEL favors cooking‐oil uptake, CEL‐M favors pump‐oil uptake, and CEL‐L‐M provides the ...

Isolating T‐Cell Potent Lentiviral Vector Subpopulations through Rational Design of Nanofiber Anion‐Exchange Adsorbents

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Generation of CAR‐T cell therapies relies predominantly on lentiviral vectors (LVs). As in vivo CAR‐T trials progress, demand for larger quantities of higher‐potency LV is expected. However, primary capture by anion‐exchange chromatography (AIEX) remains a major manufacturing bottleneck from use of adsorbents not tailored to LVs, leading to ...
