Fiber‐Reinforced Bio‐Epoxy Composites: Degradation Mechanisms in Saline Environment

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Constituent level degradation of bio‐epoxy composites after saline aging. ABSTRACT This study examines the degradation behavior of bio‐epoxy composites reinforced with glass, basalt, carbon, and flax fiber yarns in a simulated saline environment. Fiber yarns and composite samples were exposed to 3.5% NaCl solution at 60°C for up to 3000 h.

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties

Polymer International, EarlyView.
The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

Herbaria as repositories of past soil properties and historical soil DNA

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil health is fundamental to agriculture, food security, and the sustainable management of terrestrial ecosystems under ongoing climate and land‐use changes. Soil microorganisms play a key role in these processes, yet how soils and their microbial communities have changed over time in response to global environmental change remains poorly understood ...

Efficacy and Safety of Cannabis Derivates and Their Synthetic Analogs. Overview of Systematic Reviews

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of medicinal products derived from cannabis and its synthetic analogues has grown in recent years for various health conditions, which led to an increase in systematic reviews (SR) on the topic. The objective of this overview was to identify, synthesize, and critically appraise the evidence from SR on the benefits and harms of cannabis
