Iron oxide nanoparticle is of great interest due to its potent application as a catalyst.
However, the synthetic route involves using toxic chemicals, which are notable for the harsh …

Iron oxide is a mineral compound that shows different polymorphic forms, including hematite
(α-Fe2O3), magnetite (Fe3O4) and maghemite (γ-Fe2O3). Solid propulsion technology …

Plastic pellets are worldwide contaminants that accumulate in the ocean, especially in sandy
beaches, where their historic standing-stock quantification relies on surface sediment …

The sisal (Agave sisalana) is a cellulosic fiber produced in Brazil since 1903 and until now
has been one of the most traded due to its characteristics such as the low cost, low density …

In this study, we investigated the thermal, dynamic mechanical, mechanical, and electrical
properties of polyethylene (PE)–graphene nanosheet (GNS) nanocomposites, with GNS …

Starch/PBAT films plasticised with glycerol containing citric acid (CA) with and without
sodium hypophosphite (SHP) were produced by blown extrusion. Some properties of the …

This study evaluated how the treatment of coconut fiber (CF) affected the fiber itself and the
composites prepared with treated and in nature coconut fiber used as reinforcement in PHB …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of replacing corn starch by whey protein
isolated (WPI) in biodegradable polymer blends developed by extrusion. X-ray diffraction …

The use of plasticizers, polymer blends and composites have been reported as effective
strategies to overcome the rigidity and brittleness of PLA, drawbacks that commonly limits its …
