The Effect of Nanofibrillated Tempo-oxidized Cotton Linters on the Strength and Optical Properties of Paper
(Journal of Natural Fibers, 2022)
This study elaborates the application of composite films based on nanofibrillated cellulose obtained from cotton linters oxidized in the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (TEMPO)/NaBr/NaClO system, with the use ...
Antioxidant and cell-friendly Fe2TiO5 nanoparticles for food packaging application
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022)
An emerging technology of active packaging enables prolongation of food shelf life by limiting the oxygen transfer and the reactivity of free radicals, which both destruct food freshness. In this work, Fe2TiO5 nanoparticles ...
Effect of chemical modifications and coating with Cu-based nanoparticles on the electro-physical properties of jute fabrics in a condition of high humidity
(Elsevier B.V., 2022)
The electro-physical properties of raw, alkali and oxidatively modified jute fabrics were investigated as complex phenomena of the interactions between the fabrics’ chemical composition, carboxyl group content, crystallinity, ...
Enhanced Antimicrobial Activity of Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Treated and Aged Cotton Fibers
(Journal of Natural Fibers, 2022)
In this work, plasma pretreatment of raw cotton fibers combined with silver sorption was used for the preparation of antimicrobial fabrics. Special attention was given to the aging effect investigated seven days after ...
Acetylation of cellulose – Another pathway of natural cellulose aging during library storage of books and papers
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022)
Gaseous acetic acid is formed under conditions of storage of historic paper objects. Its presence not only promotes hydrolytic cleavage of cellulose, but also causes acetylation of the cellulosic material to very small ...
Removal of trivalent chromium from aqueous solutions by natural clays: Valorization of saturated adsorbents as raw materials in ceramic manufacturing
(Elsevier, 2023)
Kaolinite/illite (KUb) and sepiolite (SEP) clays were used to study Cr(III) adsorption removal from aqueous solutions so that they could be utilized after saturation for ceramic manufacturing. SEP had a larger specific ...
Effect of mechanical activation on carbothermal synthesis and densification of ZrC
(Elsevier Ltd, 2023)
Zirconium carbide ceramics were prepared by carbothermal reduction of ZrO2 and C that were mixed by high-energy ball milling. Powders were milled for times from 0 to 120 min in air. As milling time increased, the surface ...
Investigation of seasonal variations and multiple fuel options in a novel tri-generation CSP integrated hybrid energy process
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022)
This work presents a novel Mixed-Integer Non-linear Program (MINLP) that accounts for the presence of multiple fuels in tri-generation systems. The key novelty of this work pertains to the use of hybrid energy systems in ...
Steroid-based tracing of sewage-sourced pollution of river water and wastewater treatment efficiency: Dissolved and suspended water phase distribution
(Elsevier B.V., 2022)
In this work, the environmental distribution of steroid compounds and the level of sewage-derived contamination were assessed using sterol ratios in the confluence area of two major rivers in the Serbian capital, where raw ...
Biodegradable and active zein-gelatin-based electrospun mats and solvent-cast films incorporating sage extract: Formulation and comparative characterization
(Elsevier Ltd., 2023)
This study aimed to develop active, biodegradable materials for food packaging by incorporating sage extract (SE) within a zein-gelatin blend by electrospinning and solvent casting. The fabrication techniques, SE incorporation, ...
