Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.This study demonstrates that postindustrial recycled polypropylene (PIR PP) performs comparably to virgin polypropylene in reusable food packaging. After 20 simulated reuse cycles, including heating and commercial washing, PIR PP retained its structural, chemical, and microbial safety properties, supporting its potential for safe and sustainable ...

A Mathematical Model for Two‐Phase Flow in Confined Environments: Numerical Solution and Validation
International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 306-320, March 2026.We present a numerical framework based on the Cahn‐Hilliard‐Navier‐Stokes (CHNS) model to simulate biphasic flow in confined environments. After deriving the mathematical model, we develop the weak form of the system of PDEs using a pedagogical approach to enable its implementation in FEniCS.

Vegetable Oil‐Based Materials for Drug Delivery Systems and Wound Dressings
Macromolecular Bioscience, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.Renewable resources like vegetable oils are increasingly explored for biomaterial production in biomedical applications. Their monoglycerides and triglycerides inherently possess functions or can be chemically modified to introduce functional groups suitable for polymerization, yielding biomaterials with desirable properties such as flexibility ...

ChemistryOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.The study compares hemp, flax, and sisal as nonwood raw materials for pulp production using soda and nitrate‐alkaline cooking. It evaluates chemical composition, cellulose crystallinity, yield, delignification, and paper strength. Sisal showed the highest tensile performance, while the choice of cooking method significantly influenced the quality and ...

Cultivating biodiversity: When conservation in agricultural landscapes embodies farmers' values
People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 706-723, March 2026.Abstract Efforts to conserve biodiversity in agricultural landscapes across Europe remain insufficient, as biodiversity further declines. This is sometimes ascribed to conservation policy failing to address the meanings and values that farmers attribute to the social and ecological contexts shaping their decisions influencing biodiversity.
