Exploring ionic liquid-laden metal-organic framework composite materials as hybrid electrolytes in metal (ion) batteries
(Frontiers Media, 2022-09)
This review focuses on the combination of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and ionic liquids (ILs) to obtain composite materials to be used as solid electrolytes in metal-ion battery applications. Benefiting from the ...
A feasibility study of the installation of a modular bioreactor inside a chemical scrubber at a wastewater treatment plant
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Chemical scrubbing and biofiltration are well-established technologies for treating contaminated pollutants generated at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Nevertheless, the growing need to reduce the ecological footprint ...
3D printed alginate-cellulose nanofibers based patches for local curcumin administration
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
Alginate and nanocellulose are potential biomaterials to be employed as bioinks for three-dimensional (3D) printing. Alginate-cellulose nanofibers (A-CNF) formulations with CNF amounts up to 5 wt% were developed and ...
The versatility of collagen and chitosan: From food to biomedical applications
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
Biodegradable polymers obtained from renewable resources, such as chitosan and collagen, are sustainable alternatives to develop environmentally friendly materials. Due to their abundance, biocompatibility and antimicrobial ...

Biocomposites Based on Poly(Lactic Acid) Matrix and Reinforced with Lignocellulosic Fibers: The Effect of Fiber Type and Matrix Modification
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-02-14)
in composite materials, two or more different components are combined to produce a new material with different characteristics from the individual components. In recent years, due to environmental concerns, the development ...
Advanced and traditional processing of thermoplastic polyurethane waste
(Elsevier, 2022-04)
In this work different ways to valorise discarded ear tags made of TPU from livestock sector were studied. This singular residue does not require separation from other plastics like other industrial and urbane wastes, which ...
Furan-containing biobased polyurethane nanofibers: A new versatile and green support clickable via Diels-Alder reaction
(Elsevier, 2022-09)
A new biobased polyurethane formulation containing furan was synthesized and subsequently functionalized and de-functionalized via Diels-Alder and retro Diels-Alder reactions. Furan was inserted in the backbone polymer ...
