Lichen‐Derived Mineral Residue as a Renewable Particulate Filler in Polylactic Acid Biocomposites: Structure, Melt Rheology, Viscoelastic, and Flexural Behavior

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Lichen residue, a renewable mineral‐organic material, was melt compounded with polylactic acid and triacetin in a twin‐screw extruder. ABSTRACT A lichen‐derived natural material, known as “höllük” in southeastern Turkey, is introduced as a renewable filler for polylactic acid (PLA).

Electrospun PVA Scaffolds Containing MCM‐41/CNC Nanocomposites for Controlled Drug Release in Wound Dressings

Polymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Cellulose nanocrystals extracted from Mauritia flexuosa petiole were combined with MCM‐41 mesoporous silica to create a diclofenac‐loaded hybrid nanocomposite. Incorporation into electrospun PVA scaffolds enabled controlled diclofenac release and high cell viability, highlighting their potential for localized drug delivery.

Direct extraction of functional whitened lignocellulose from wood via isocyanate modification in water–ethanol mixture

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Direct extraction of lignocellulose from wood derivatives was achieved by introducing a bulky isocyanate substituent to lignin in a water–ethanol mixture. This process exploits the tunable solvent affinity of lignin to achieve its whitening, enabling the isolation of lignocellulose.
