Biocomposite materials create a huge opportunity for a healthy and safe environment by
replacing artificial plastic and materials with natural ingredients in a variety of applications …

Bioplastics are polymers that are capable of undergoing decomposition into CO2, H2O and
inorganic compounds or biomass through predominantly the enzymatic action of …

Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are important in the health-care and personal care
industries. Products like bed pads and diapers improve the comfort and sanitary conditions …

Functionalized wheat gluten (WG) protein particles with the ability to absorb fluids within the
superabsorbent range are presented. Ethyleneditetraacetic dianhydride (EDTAD), a …

Our aim was to understand mechanisms for clustering and cross-linking of gliadins, a wheat
seed storage protein type, monomeric in native state, but incorporated in network while …

Superabsorbent polymers (SAP) are a central component of hygiene and medical products
requiring high liquid swelling, but these SAP are commonly derived from petroleum …

The aim of the study was to impart fire retardancy in wheat gluten polymer through naturally-
occurring additives such as lanosol. The fire properties of lanosol were compared with two …

Wheat gluten (WG) and potato protein (PP) were modified to a basic pH by NaOH to impact
macromolecular and structural properties. Films were processed by compression molding …

Sustainable development in the agriculture sector can be boosted by integrating a
sustainable bioeconomy and transforming renewable resources into added-value products …
