AFTER-TREATMENT OF POLYPROPYLENE FIBRE
The spun yarn may be drawn several times its original iength. This drawing is the strengthforming structural change which adapts polypropylene to a wide range of utility in the textile field.The drawing ratio has a considerable influence on the mechanical properties of fibres, and the maximum ratio is desirable.

BIOLOGICAL AND ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE OF ACETYLATED FLAX FIBRE REINFORCED POLYPROPYLENE COMPOSITES
Flax fibre reinforced polypropylene composites were fabricated using a high speed mixer followed by injection moulding. Prior to composite production, the fibre was modified by acetylation in the presence of perchloric acid.

Upcycling of Disposable Face Masks into Water‐Resistant and Flame Retardant Foams
Disposable mask waste is upcycled into lightweight polypropylene‐based foams with tunable porosity and composite architectures reinforced by ear‐loop fibers. The sustainable solvent‐based process enables upcycling rates of 91% and solvent recovery of >90%.

This study characterizes the presence of microplastics in human normal gastric, para‐tumor, and gastric tumor tissue and confirms the association between microplastic exposure and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. This study explores the transcriptomic changes induced by microplastic exposure, laying the foundation for further investigation into
