Influence of Storage Time on Functional Bulk Properties of Low‐Pressure Oxygen/Argon Plasma Modified Polypropylene Fabric

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Treatment of polypropylene fabric in oxygen plasma was used to impart the fabric surface with more hydrophilic surface properties. Changes in bulk properties were minimal as the modification mainly affected the fabric surface. Bulk fabric properties water retention, moisture content and wicking were monitored over a period of 33 days.

Additives Enhancing Biodegradability in Plastics and Potential Implications for Textiles: A Mechanistic Review

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Mechanistic insights from additive‐assisted plastic degradation guide the design of environmentally adaptive textile fibers. Functional additives enhance oxidative, hydrolytic, enzymatic, and microbial degradation pathways. Translating these strategies requires control of fiber architecture, additive distribution, and environmental interactions ...

Emerging research directions in nanoparticle‐based foam control for bioprocessing: a bibliometric approach

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Overfoaming remains a critical challenge in industrial bioprocesses, compromising mass transfer, operational stability, and downstream efficiency in bioreactors and wastewater treatment systems. This study provides a bibliometric and scientometric assessment of nanoparticle‐enabled foam control to map technological trends and identify research

Microplastic abundance and its relationship with sediment grain size in seagrass and bare flats of Panjang Island, Banten Bay, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
Microplastic accumulation in sediment is influenced by the grain size of sediment. Panjang Island, located in Banten Bay, has the potential to accumulate microplastics from bay-wide transport and local anthropogenic sources.

Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Microplastic Pollution in the Mediterranean Sea

open access: yes, 2020
Microplastics may be accumulated in different marine ecosystems at increasing rates. They can be uptaken by a wide range of marine organisms. Direct consumption of microplastic is prevalent in suspension feeders, including zooplankton, oysters, and ...

Liquid‐phase oxidation of furfural catalyzed by magnetically separable metal oxide nanoparticles deposited on silica gel

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Oxidation of furfural (FF), a bio‐based platform chemical, was investigated using a range of iron‐, vanadium‐ and iron–zinc‐oxalates supported on silica gel (FeVOx@silica and FeZnOx@silica, respectively) as precursor for FeV@silica and FeZn@silica oxide catalysts and H2O2 as a green oxidant.

Microplastic In Freshwater Macroinvertebrates

open access: yes, 2022
Microplastic is ubiquitous in the aquatic environment, however little is still known whether microplastic has a negative impact on freshwater macroinvertebrates and the potential risk of this for freshwater ecosystems.
