Cluster Analysis of Circular Economy and Industrial Symbiosis Practices and Their Impact on Sustainability Performance in the Plastics Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines how plastics manufacturing firms can be classified according to their level of implementation of circular economy (CE) and industrial symbiosis (IS) practices and how such adoption influences sustainability performance. Using data from plastics manufacturing firms, we integrate cluster analysis with partial least squares ...

Printing to Fight Antimicrobial Resistance Through Nano/Microstructured Platforms

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Additive manufacturing enables the rational design of structured antimicrobial platforms across multiple length scales, from nanofibrous scaffolds and droplet microreactors to 3D and 4D printed constructs. By engineering confinement, interfacial chemistry, and stimuli‐responsive release, these systems exert localized action through complementary ...

The Combined Effect of Gas Phase and Condensed Phase Mechanisms in Flame Retardancy of Polybutylene Succinate

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
A combination of DOPO and APP flame‐retardants results in a V‐0 UL 94 rating. ABSTRACT In this study, we addressed the challenge of eliminating, during combustion, the flaming dripping behavior of polybutylene succinate flame retarded with ammonium polyphosphate, a key barrier to achieving a V‐0 rating in the UL 94 flammability test without excessive ...

Polyesterase activity and thermostability of carboxylesterases from Thermoleophilum album YS‐3

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Three novel α/β‐hydrolases from thermophilic bacterium Thermoleophilum album display carboxylesterase and polyesterase activity. These enzymes hydrolyse PET, PLA and PCL both at high and moderate temperatures. TA21 shows superior activity, efficiently converting MHET to terephthalic acid. Structural features underlying substrate binding highlight their
