Journal ArticleDOI
Physico-chemical characterization of lignins from different sources for use in phenol–formaldehyde resin synthesis
TL;DR: Both structural and thermal characteristics suggest that kraft pine lignin (L1) would be a better phenol (P) substitute in the synthesis of lign in-phenol-formaldehyde (LPF) resins, as it presents higher amounts of activated free ring positions, higher MW and higher thermal decomposition temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancing water repellence and mechanical properties of gelatin films by tannin addition.
TL;DR: In order to reduce pollution caused by traditional non-biodegradable plastic films, renewable raw materials from plants and wastes of meat industries have been employed inThis work, a hydrolysable chestnut-tree tannin was used for gelatin modification.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial cellulose films with controlled microstructure–mechanical property relationships
Aloña Retegi,Nagore Gabilondo,C. Peña,Robin Zuluaga,Cristina Castro,Piedad Gañán,K. de la Caba,Iñaki Mondragon +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a tensile behavior has been analyzed in order to discuss the micro-structure-property relationships and network theories have been applied to relate film elastic properties with individual nanofiber properties, where slightly enhanced tensile strength and deformation at break are obtained increasing mold compression pressure, while modulus also increases following a nearly linear dependence upon film porosity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A common strategy to extracting cellulose nanoentities from different plants
Gurutz Mondragon,Susana C. M. Fernandes,Aloña Retegi,C. Peña,Itxaso Algar,Arantxa Eceiza,Aitor Arbelaiz +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a new succession of specific chemical treatments including extractives (E), prealkalization (PA), alkalization, acetylation (Ac), and acid hydrolysis (H) treatments have been developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the phase behavior and linear viscoelasticity of PaF-b-PCL were investigated, and the PaF block self-assembled into wormlike and spherical micelles in the thermoset system.
