Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 11, 3 June 2026.Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Effects of kenaf fiber bleaching and waste cooking oil on properties of PLA/kenaf biocomposite [PDF]
, 2015 Biocomposite made from poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and kenaf fiber offers a totally biodegradable and cost effective material. Owing to poor fiber-matrix adhesion and unattractive colour appearance, kenaf fiber was treated by bleaching method.

Polymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 9, Page 7812-7825, 10 May 2026.Enhanced impact strength in PLLA‐based composites via ε‐caprolactone incorporation in the matrix. ABSTRACT Inherent brittleness and limited toughness of polylactide (PLA) restrict its use in high‐performance applications. To overcome these limitations, poly(L‐lactide) (PLLA) is often blended with more ductile thermoplastics or chemically modified ...

Biomimetic Growth of Hydroxyapatite on Kenaf Fibers
BioResources, 2016 Biomimetic hydroxyapatite (HA) growth on mercerized kenaf fiber (KF) was achieved by immersion in a simulated body fluid (SBF) solution with the addition of a chelating agent. An electron micrograph revealed uniform HA layers on the KF within 14 days of immersion with significant vibrational peaks of HA components.
