A Thermoreversible Gelation Pathway to Plant Cuticle‐Inspired Biopolymer Aerogel Monoliths Based on Network‐Spherulitic Crystal Assemblies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
To address functionality limitations in plant‐based and industrially compostable polymer aerogels, this work introduces bio‐inspired aerogels with broadened functionality. Inspired by functional plant tissues, lightweight biopolymer aerogels based on exclusively stereocomplex crystals are fabricated, featuring hierarchically macro‐/meso‐porous ...

Equilibrium and dynamic moisture adsorption behaviour of bloodmeal based bioplastic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bioplastics can be manufactured from protein or carbohydrate sources such as wheat gluten, corn, sun flower, keratin, casein, soy, gelatine and whey. A recently developed bioplastic is Novatein thermoplastic (NTP), which is produced from bloodmeal by ...

Myth versus reality:Do parabolic sorption isotherm models reflect actual wood–water thermodynamics?

open access: yes, 2018
It has been known for over 35 years that commonly used sorption isotherm models fail to correctly predict wood–water properties such as heat of sorption.

Two‐Step Thermal Upcycling of Flexible Printed Circuit Board Waste Into Metallic Copper Nanoparticles: Synthesis and Characterization

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A two‐step thermal upcycling process converts flexible printed circuit board waste into high‐purity copper nanoparticles using polymer degradation and arc discharge. The synthesized nanoparticles exhibit controlled morphology and high metal purity.

Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

MATHEMATICAL MODELING AND HYSTERESIS OF SORPTION ISOTHERMS FOR PADDY RICE GRAINS [PDF]

open access: yesEngenharia Agrícola, 2019
Knowledge on sorption isotherms is important for predicting drying and storage processes of a product. A sorption isotherm can be generated from two processes: desorption and adsorption. The lag between these two curves is called hysteresis.

Programmable Guest‐Induced 5‐Phase‐Transition Topological Reconstructions of Cobalt Formate Metal–Organic Frameworks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A reversible five‐phase topological cycle is achieved in a minimalist cobalt formate metal–organic framework. The amorphous phase functions as a programmable reactive hub, selectively reconstructing into four distinct crystalline architectures through cationic templates, humidity, or CO2.

Application of Nelson's Sorption Isotherm to Wood Composites and Overlays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Equilibrium moisture content (EMC) as a function of relative humidity (RH) was measured in oriented strandboard, particleboard, medium-density fiberboard, hardboard, high pressure laminates, and solid wood.
