Green Biocomposites From Agro‐Waste With Central Layer Architecture: A Performance Comparison Against Glass Fiber Composite

Advances in Polymer Technology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
This study develops and evaluates green biocomposites using agro‐waste fibers, maize husk fiber composite (MFC), luffa fiber composite (LFC), and betelnut husk fiber composite (BFC) as core reinforcements in a central‐layer unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) matrix, comparing their performance with a 5% glass fiber composite (5% GFC) and neat UPR ...

High‐Entropy Alloys: Founding Concepts and Pathways for Biomedical Future Development

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Studies on the use of high‐entropy alloys (HEAs) as biomedical implants have increased tremendously because of their superior mechanical strength, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. HEAs are contrasted to the traditional alloys, which are formed on one main element, and consist of more than one main element in approximately equal proportions ...

Influences of Layered Structure on Physical and Mechanical Properties of Kenaf Core Particleboard

BioResources, 2013
Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus), a fast-growing fiber crop, is a potential substitute for wood to make composition boards. This work investigated single- and three-layer kenaf core particleboards (KPBs) and kenaf core-cedar wood composite particleboard (KCPB) with polymeric methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (pMDI) and phenol formaldehyde (PF) resins.
