The impact of nanotechnology on textile coloration—A mini‐review

Coloration Technology, Volume 142, Issue 1, Page 26-51, February 2026.
Abstract Coloration is a key feature in the textile industry that adds value to the final apparels. This coloration of textile products is done by conventional methods which involve huge amounts of water pollution and wastages of textile colourants. Several approaches have been taken to eliminate these issues by advanced dyeing methods, however, due to

Investigation of the Physicochemical, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties of a Single Fiber Extracted From Imperata Cylindrica Plant

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
This study investigated the physical, chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties of Imperata cylindrica (IC) fibers extracted using 2 wt%, 4 wt%, and 6 wt% NaOH. Since 6 wt% NaOH yielded complete removal, fibers obtained from this concentration were furthermore treated with 1% concentration of silane before characterization.

Recent Progress on the Physical, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties of Expanded Polystyrene Waste–Based Composites

International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) waste also known as Styrofoam is a common material found in packaging and insulation applications and presents significant environmental challenges due to its nonbiodegradable nature. To address this issue, researchers have explored EPS waste as a potential polymer matrix for developing composite materials.
