Natural Antioxidants as Thermal Stabilizers in Fully Biobased PHBV Compounds

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 9, March 5, 2026.
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are promising biobased polymers but degrade easily under heat and oxygen. This study examines PHBV with natural antioxidants to enhance thermal stability during processing. Results show regenerative additives prevent degradation and the effectiveness is comparable to that of synthetic additives.

Assessing the Performance of Biopolymers as Substrates for Flexible Printed Supercapacitors Containing Liquid Electrolytes

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
The fossil‐based substrates of a printed supercapacitor containing liquid electrolytes can only be replaced with biopolymers if they have adequate permeabilities. This article studies three biopolymers based on their processability, printability, and barrier properties to find a more sustainable substrate option.
