Zwitterionic polymers have become a kind of potential biomaterial system used to design
nonfouling interfaces between general materials and biological environments. This …

Spent coffee grounds have been successfully used as an alternative infusion for kombucha
fermentation (spent coffee kombucha, SCK). The obtained by-product of this fermentation …

New composite materials were developed with poly (lactide)(PLA) and Posidonia oceanica
fibers through reactive extrusion in the presence of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) and subsequent …

This work reports on the development of polylactide (PLA)/mango kernel seed flour (MKSF)
composites combined with tributyrin (TBN) and triacetin (TCN) as plasticizers. Thus, wood …

In this study, a new composite material is developed using a semi bio-based polypropylene
(bioPP) and micronized argan shell (MAS) byproducts. To improve the interaction between …

Thermal and oxidative stabilization are critical aspects in the processing and exploitation of
polyolefins. Black tea contains many natural antioxidants, the largest group of compounds in …

This study analyzed the possibility of using plant-originated waste materials (black and
green tea dust) as functional polyethylene fillers. The dependence between the size of the …

Abstract Poly (lactic acid)(PLA) is a biodegradable and bioactive thermoplastic polymer. It
has been widely used for hard tissue applications in orthopedic and dental fields. However …

Bio-based high-density polyethylene (BioHDPE)-loaded composites with different amounts
of spent coffee powder (up to 30 wt.%) were successfully produced. The use of coffee …
