Coating of Lyocell Nonwovens by Carboxymethylated Starches for Production of Hydrogel‐Nonwoven Hygiene Tissues

Starch - Stärke, Volume 78, Issue 7, July 2026.
Carboxymethylated starch (CMS) coated lyocell nonwovens were produced via a pad‐drying approach. Starch was cross linked with citric acid. Coated fabrics have a higher water retention value compared to the reference nonwoven and reduce the eluted organic compounds by gluing fibers. Though chemical use can hardly be reduced, CMS composite properties are

From Viscose to Lyocell‐Type Fibers: Chemical Recycling of Viscose and Modal Fibers Using the Ioncell Process

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.
Using the Ioncell process, the recycling of low DP textile waste via four case studies, white, blue, and black viscose and white modal fibers, was investigated. The most common man‐made cellulose fiber (MMCF) is viscose, a low DP material made of plant‐based cellulose, and it accounts for less than 6% of the total amount of textile fibers.

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

Journal 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
