Study of the dynamic fragility of polymer nanocomposites: Correlation with damping

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 44, Issue 9, Page 5619-5632, September 2023., 2023
The dynamic fragility and activation energy were calculated and analyzed on the basis of the dynamic mechanical data of a series of polymer nanocomposites. A general trend of a decreasing dynamic fragility with increasing Tg was found. No monotonic effect of the nanofiller loading on the fragility was detected. Abstract In this work, an extensive study

Recent trends in nanocomposite packaging films utilising waste generated biopolymers: Industrial symbiosis and its implication in sustainability

open access: yesIET Nanobiotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 127-153, May 2023., 2023
Utilisation of residual biomass could act as green and sustainable approach to lessen the waste burden on Earth and fulfiling the demand for bio‐based goods. Using waste as a raw material through industrial symbiosis should be taken into account as one of the strategies to achieve more economic and environmental value through inter‐firm collaboration ...

The influence of alkaline treatment on the mechanical performance of geopolymer composites reinforced with Brazilian malva and curaua fibers

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 106, Issue 1, Page 339-353, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Lignocellulosic fibers obtained from the curaua (Ananas erectifolius) and malva (Malva sylvestris) plants in Brazil can be used as suitable reinforcements for geopolymers (GPs) owing to their high strength, ready regional availability, and low cost.

Preparation, Characteristics, and Application of Biopolymer Materials Reinforced with Lignocellulosic Fibres

open access: yesInternational Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Various environmental concerns motivate scientists and researchers to look out for unique new materials in science and technology. In order to address the demand for polymeric materials with partial biodegradability, the usage of lignocellulosic fibre in the polymer matrix has risen. Lignocellulosic fibres are a cheap, easily renewable resource that is
