Commercial clays in cosmetic formulations for hair care: Characterization and application to improve the mechanical properties of hair fibre

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The shampoo and conditioner bar formulations enhanced hair gloss, promoting softness, improved cuticle alignment, and effective protection of hair shafts against external aggressors. Findings from mechanical properties measurements indicate that the clay‐containing formulations enhance the mechanical strength of hair, contributing to stronger and more ...

Stimuli‐Responsive Crosslinked Chitosan/PVP/PEG Hydrogel Networks for Targeted Drug Delivery and Antimicrobial Performance

Analytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In this study, a unique pH‐sensitive PEG/C/PVA hydrogel based on chitosan (C), polyvinyl propylene (PVP) and polyethylenglycol (PEG) crosslinked with tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) was fabricated. This PEG/C/PVA hydrogel was designed to deliver different drugs with distinct release profiles, including diclofenac sodium and ciprofloxacin, and ...

Causes of spurious features in spectral reflectance data [PDF]

Several techniques are becoming common in the analysis of imaging spectrometer data that can lead to spurious absorption features or to changes in the position, width, and shape of actual absorption features.

Improving Oxygen Barrier Performance of Polylactide Film by Using Bleached and Unbleached Nanocellulose From Grape Pomace

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 14, April 10, 2026.
Bleached and unbleached nanocelluloses were produced from the exhausted grape pomace and applied as coatings on PLA substrates for sustainable food packaging. Unbleached nanocelluloses were more hydrophobic and amorphous than bleached ones. The resulting bio‐based bleached nanocellulose‐coated PLA films showed a 68% reduction in O2 permeability ...

Material Limitations and Processing Challenges of Bio‐Based Thermoplastics: A Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 14, April 10, 2026.
This review highlights recent advances in bio‐based thermoplastic polymers (b‐bTPs), focusing on their composition, formulation challenges, and industrial applications. Key aspects include the use of additives and blends to improve performance, microcellular injection molding techniques, and the recyclability of b‐bTPs foams.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

Epoxy resin‐based sealers modified with clay nanoparticles: Evaluation of their physicochemical and mechanical properties

European Journal of Oral Sciences, Volume 134, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Epoxy resin‐based sealers are commonly used in endodontic treatment due to their superior physicochemical properties. Therefore, it is important to utilize these materials by enhancing their properties. Nonetheless, several of their properties remain suboptimal, including the relatively prolonged setting time, the moderate yet clinically ...

Selective Transfer Hydrogenation of Furfural to Isopropyl Levulinate: An In Situ One‐Pot Cascade Approach

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 5, 13 March 2026.
In this article, we applied a combination of metal (0.5 mol%) and acid (1 mol%) that functioned harmoniously to selectively convert a bio‐based starting material, furfural, into small oxygenates. We used a transfer hydrogenation reaction with isopropanol acting as both the reducing agent and the reaction medium. Isopropyl levulinate, a key intermediate
