Manufacturing and characterisation of thermoplastic composite of hemp shives and recycled expanded polystyrene [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Conference Proceedings, 2017
There are two main problems caused by the huge volume of expanded polystyrene (Styrofoam) waste: the large amount of space that would be needed if it were to be disposed of in landfills and the excessive transport cost if it were to be recycled or incinerated. Consequently, the solution to these problems is the execution of two processes: the first one

Patterns, Predictors, and Correlates of Problematic Alcohol Use and Remission From Adolescence to Early Midlife

open access: yesAlcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 50, Issue 7, July 2026.
Late‐onset problem alcohol use (PAU) may be the result of novel stressors in adulthood, given the lack of association with childhood and adolescent environmental risk or genetic risk. Encouragingly, Remitted PAU resembled Never PAU in early midlife, despite having elevated genetic and prior environmental risk. ABSTRACT Background The goal of this paper

Bio‐Based Polyurethanes: Mechanical Performance, Structure–Property Relationships, and Future Directions

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 9, Page 1860-1894, 1 May 2026.
This review examines bio‐based polyurethanes from renewable feedstocks, focusing on structure‐property relationships governing mechanical performance. It analyzes reinforcement strategies, benchmarks against petrochemical counterparts, and explores future directions, including non‐isocyanate routes and circular economy integration for sustainable high ...

From Hemp Bast to Lyocell Fiber: Sustainable Process Optimization for Lyocell‐Grade Dissolving Pulp

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 16, April 20, 2026.
This study presents a sustainable method to produce lyocell‐grade dissolving pulp from Canadian hemp bast fibers. A simplified alkali‐chelation‐bleaching process, free from sulfur and chlorine, yielded high α‐cellulose pulp with low lignin and hemicellulose content. The pulp was successfully spun into continuous hemp‐based lyocell fibers, demonstrating

A material proposed for re-use of hemp shives as a waste from fiber production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This work proposes a material obtained from hemp shives mixed with another industrial waste, clay from pottery, in a self-produced starch-based matrix. The preliminary results, obtained through Charpy impact, Shore D hardness and flexural tests, suggest ...

The Preparation of a Carbonaceous Adsorbent via Batch Pyrolysis of Waste Hemp Shives

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
The study focuses on the two-stage process of the thermal treatment of waste hemp shives aimed at obtaining a carbonaceous adsorbent. In the first stage, pyrolysis was carried out in a retort apparatus, which, at temperatures in the range of 450–850 °C, provided approximately 22.6–29.9% of the solid residue, 31.6–34.0% of the condensate, and 38.5–43.4%

Intertemporal Decision‐Making, Nucleus Accumbens Activation, and Alcohol Use Trajectories in Young Adults With a Family History of Alcohol Use Disorder

open access: yesAlcohol, Clinical and Experimental Research, Volume 50, Issue 4, April 2026.
We conducted an fMRI investigation of the effects of family history on neural correlates of delay discounting in 163 young adults. Structural equation modeling demonstrated that the effects of family history on nucleus accumbens activation prospectively predicted alcohol use trajectories over a 4‐year period.

Agricultural System Resilience of Industrial Hemp: An Exploratory Value Web Analysis in the Swabian Alb

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study assessed the industrial hemp value web resilience in the Swabian Alb, Southern Germany, where regional implementation remains limited despite hemp's bioeconomy potential. Using an indicator framework and stakeholder interviews, the research found the small, fluctuating cultivation area (e.g., 25 ha in 2024) focuses on hemp seed valorisation;
