Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The US hemp market is a new and nascent industry that has been devoid of research for about half a century. This study examined the effects of exogenous shock on price at each phase of the value chain—Farm (hemp biomass), and its impact on prices at other phases of the value chain—Intermediary Processor (crude cannabidiol hemp) and Final ...

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Mechanistic insights from additive‐assisted plastic degradation guide the design of environmentally adaptive textile fibers. Functional additives enhance oxidative, hydrolytic, enzymatic, and microbial degradation pathways. Translating these strategies requires control of fiber architecture, additive distribution, and environmental interactions ...

Carbonized Hemp Fiber for Use in Composites
MaterialsThis study investigates the use of carbonized hemp fiber (CHF) as a reinforcement for phenol resorcinol formaldehyde (PRF)-based fiber composites. The hemp fiber was carbonized slowly up to 1000 °C under N2 with a yield of 18%. Compression-molded composites were prepared with CHF and then compared to hemp (HF) and wood fiber (WF) at 0 to 50% loading ...

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.Thermal black improves polyurethane foam structure and stability. It helps the foam rise smoothly while promoting the formation of smaller, more uniform cells. The foam keeps its strength and insulation performance while reducing shrinkage. Its clean production and easy processing make it a sustainable, cost‐effective option for high‐performance ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Circular product design (CPD) is central to advancing the circular economy by enabling the narrowing, slowing, and closing of resource flows. Yet, its implementation remains persistently challenging for firms. Prior research has largely framed these challenges as discrete barriers, overlooking the structural contradictions embedded in CPD ...
