Methacrylate-Based Polymeric Sorbents for Recovery of Metals from Aqueous Solutions
(MDPI, 2022)
The industrialization and urbanization expansion have increased the demand for precious and rare earth elements (REEs). In addition, environmental concerns regarding the toxic effects of heavy metals on living organisms ...
Impact of Crosslinking on the Characteristics of Pectin Monolith Cryogels
(MDPI, 2022)
In this research, the pectin monoliths were prepared via the sol-gel process through different routes of crosslinking and additional freeze-drying. The crosslinking reaction was induced by the use of calcium ions in aqueous ...
Dispersive Solid–Liquid Microextraction Based on the Poly(HDDA)/Graphene Sorbent Followed by ICP-MS for the Determination of Rare Earth Elements in Coal Fly Ash Leachate
(MDPI, 2022)
A dispersive solid-phase microextraction (DSPME) sorbent consisting of poly(1,6-hexanedi-ol diacrylate)-based polymer microspheres, with embedded graphene microparticles (poly(HDDA)/g-raphene), was synthesized by microfluidic ...
Novel Biocomposite Films Based on High Methoxyl Pectin Reinforced with Zeolite Y for Food Packaging Applications
(Foods, 2022)
Pectin is a natural biopolymer with broad applications in the food industry and it is suitable to prepare edible films to prolong food shelf-life. However, the main limitation of pectin-based films is their poor mechanical ...
Use of chènevotte, a valuable co-product of industrial hemp fiber, as adsorbent for copper ions: Kinetic studies and modeling
(Elsevier B.V., 2022)
In this study, a series of hemp shives (chènevotte) with different chemical compositions and properties, namely a raw (SHI-R), a washed with water (SHI-W), three samples chemically modified with KOH (SHI-OH), Na2CO3 (SHI-C) ...
The Effect of Glycol Derivatives on the Properties of Bio-Based Unsaturated Polyesters
(MDPI, 2022)
The scope of the present study was to prepare fully bio-based unsaturated polyester resins (UPRs) with comparable properties to the commercial formulations. The focus was set on the determination of the optimal prepolymer ...
Development, Characterization and Incorporation of Alginate‐Plant Protein Covered Liposomes Containing Ground Ivy (Glechoma hederacea L.) Extract into Candies
(MDPI, 2022)
Ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea L.) has been known as a medicinal plant in folk medicine for generations and, as a member of the Lamiaceae family, is characterized with a high content of rosmarinic acid. The aim of the ...
Obtaining Medical Textiles Based on Viscose and Chitosan/Zinc Nanoparticles with Improved Antibacterial Properties by Using a Dielectric Barrier Discharge
(MDPI, 2022)
This study aimed to obtain functional viscose textiles based on chitosan coatings with improved antibacterial properties and washing durability. For that reason, before functionalization with chitosan/zinc nanoparticles ...
The Effects of Irrigation, Topping, and Interrow Spacing on the Yield and Quality of Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) Fibers in Temperate Climatic Conditions
(MDPI, 2022)
The study was aimed at determining the most suitable irrigation schedule program for hemp grown for fibers by using evaporation from the free water surface (Eo), measured by a Class A pan and related crop plant coefficient ...
Chemical Profile and Skin-Beneficial Activities of the Petal Extracts of Paeonia tenuifolia L. from Serbia
(MDPI, 2022)
Without being aware of its chemical makeup, many ancient societies have used Steppe peony in their traditional medicine. Given that modern phytopreparation intended for use on human skin requires, above all, knowledge of ...
