A novel multifunctional biomedical material based on polyacrylonitrile:preparation and characterization [PDF]
Wet spun microfibers have great potential in the design of multifunctional controlled release materials. Curcumin (Cur) and vitamin E acetate (Vit. E Ac) were used as a model drug system to evaluate the potential application of the drug-loaded microfiber

Multifunctional lyocell fibers are engineered by synergistic blend spinning of bioactive small molecules and zinc ions. The fibers exhibit durable antibacterial activity, suppress infection‐induced inflammation, modulate macrophage polarization, and promote angiogenesis and collagen remodeling, thereby accelerating healing of bacteria‐infected wounds ...

A study on the functional properties of silk and polyester / lyocell mixed fabric [PDF]
Silk is one of the valuable fibers in textile industry. It is used for delicate applications in many areas such as sarees, suitings, curtains and luxurious interiors. To diversify the properties and usages silk is mixed with polyester and lyocell. The fabric is dyed with natural dyes (kum kum, indigo, barberry) as well as synthetic dyes (reactive dye ...

Abstract Textile production is an important industrial sector but also one of the most polluting industries and highly dependent on fossil resources and cotton for the production of fibers. The use of cellulosic fibers from local agricultural residues can offer a sustainable alternative for the current textile industry. In this work, an environmentally

ABSTRACT Nanocellulose is being increasingly used in biomedical applications because of its biocompatibility, mechanical robustness, tunable surface chemistry, and adjustable rheology. This review evaluates recent strategies for engineering cellulose nanofibrils, nanocrystals, and bacterial nanocellulose into cell‐instructive scaffolds for skin, bone ...
