Nanocomposites for Water Treatment, Photocatalysis, and Challenges: A Systematic Review

Global Challenges, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2025.
A nanocomposite synthesized via sol‐gel, chemical vapor deposition, or in‐situ polymerization effectively removes dyes and heavy metals from water, yielding purified water. Additionally, it exhibits high photocatalytic degradation efficiency under visible or UV light.

Melt Processing of Cellulose Acetate for Controlled Release Applications – A Review

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 310, Issue 9, September 2025.
This review presents recent developments in the melt‐processing of cellulose acetate (CA). Factors affecting the processability, biodegradability, and mechanical performance of CA are also summarized. Plasticizers, bio‐based polymers (PLA, PBAT & PHBV), and clay nanoparticles are also examined toward enhancing the melt processability and mechanical ...

Adsorption of Cr(VI) in Aqueous Solution Using a Surfactant-Modified Bentonite

The Scientific World Journal, 2020
Clay minerals can be modified organically by a cationic surfactant resulting in materials known as organoclays. The organoclays have been used as adsorbents of most of the organic contaminants in the aqueous solution and oxyanions of the heavy metal.

Hydraulic Conductivity of Organoclay and Organoclay-Sand Mixtures to Fuels and Organic Liquids

Journal of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Engineering, 2015
Abstract Hydraulic conductivity, swelling, and liquid sorption capacity (i.e., maximum organic liquid mass bound per mass organoclay solid) were measured for an organoclay with dimethylammonium bound to the surface. Five fuels (No. 1 fuel oil, No. 2 fuel oil, diesel, jet fuel, and gasoline), four pure organic liquids (methanol, phenol, ethylbenzene ...

Recent Advances in PBAT (Nano) Composite Materials for Food Packaging: A Comprehensive Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 142, Issue 28, July 20, 2025.
Poly(butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) is the most commonly used plastic. PBAT‐based (nano) composites provide a lot of potential as food wrapping. The preparation of plastics based on PBAT composites is described. PBAT materials' distinctive properties lead to suitability for application in food packaging.
