Spent Artemisia arborescens as a Biowaste Filler for Melt‐Processed PBSA Biocomposites With Enhanced Disintegration and Aerobic Biodegradation

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Spent Artemisia arborescens biomass, recovered after essential‐oil steam distillation, was ground and melt‐compounded with PBSA (10 and 20 wt%), yielding biocomposites with accelerated biodegradation. ABSTRACT Artemisia arborescens is a Mediterranean shrub widely used for essential oil production, generating significant amounts of spent biomass after ...

Interfacially Engineered Alginate/Hydroxyapatite Biocomposites With High Strength and Toughness

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Pre‐crosslinking alginate with Ca2+ prior to hydroxyapatite (HAP) formation reduces residual Ca2+ bridging and promotes stronger carboxylate‐hydroxyapatite interfacial interactions, yielding composites with markedly higher strength, stiffness, and toughness than those prepared by the opposite sequence.

Tailored for Binding: Alanine‐Modified Poly(1‐Naphthylamine) Targets Serum Albumins

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
Alanine modified poly(1‐naphthylamine). ABSTRACT This study presents a new approach for modifying the structural and functional properties of poly(1‐naphthylamine) (PNA) by incorporating the amino acid alanine (Ala) in different molar proportions (80/20, 50/50, and 20/80 for PNA/Ala) through an ultrasound‐assisted polymerization process.

Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabric Filters Containing Graphene Oxide: A Streamlined Approach to Enhance Ultrafine Particulate Matter Removal

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
A simple graphene oxide coating strategy enhanced the ultrafine particulate matter (PM0.1) filtration performance of polypropylene nonwoven filters. The oxygen‐containing functional groups of graphene oxide improved particle capture while preserving low pressure drop and high air permeability.

Leucaena Oil Functionalized With Osmium Tetroxide as a Precursor for Polyol‐Based Polyurethane

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Leucaena leucocephala seed oil is converted into a hydroxyl‐functional biopolyol through OsO4‐mediated dihydroxylation. The resulting biopolyol shows a hydroxyl number of 160–175 mg KOH g−1 and is successfully used to produce flexible, open‐cell polyurethane foams, highlighting a renewable route for converting underutilized biomass into value‐added ...
