Improvement of water absorption behavior and mechanical properties of woven jute fiber‐reinforced epoxy composites with waste eggshell filler

Polymer International, EarlyView.
This study investigates the influence of waste eggshell powder on the water absorption and mechanical properties of jute fiber‐reinforced epoxy composites. Optimal eggshell filler content (2 wt%) significantly enhances composite performance by reducing water absorption and improving mechanical properties.

Innovations in polysaccharide‐based hydrogels in sustainable agriculture

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Polysaccharide‐based hydrogels are promising in sustainable agriculture, as these natural polymers have the ability to absorb water and nutrients and release them gradually in the soil, in addition to ensuring biodegradability and lower cost. However, some challenges still need to be overcome.
