Effect of thermomechanical pulp fibers and clay on the characteristics of high‐ and low‐density polyethylene biocomposites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Thermomechanical pulp fibers and clay compounded with high‐ and low‐density polyethylene biocomposites for injection moulding. Abstract This study focused on the performance evaluation of clay and thermomechanical pulp (TMP) fiber to reinforce low‐ and high‐density polyethylene (LDPE and HDPE) biocomposites. A 23 factorial experiment was designed using

Opuntia ficus‐indica fruit by‐products as fillers for PLA‐based biocomposites: A comparison between glochids and peel

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Utilizing cactus pear by‐products as fillers to develop PLA‐based biocomposites through melt mixing. Abstract This work explores sustainable and innovative solutions for valorizing by‐products from Opuntia ficus‐indica (cactus pear), a fruit widely grown in Sicily, the world's second‐largest producer. The peel and glochids of cactus pears were used for

The current state of peas in the United Kingdom; diversity, heritage and food systems

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Landraces and traditional pea varieties hold great potential for enhancing agrobiodiversity and promoting pulse consumption, offering a rich historical and cultural resource for the UK food system. Unfortunately, many traditional pea varieties are lost, and those saved are often kept in seed banks or used only by small‐scale growers.
