Recycled Wool-Based Nonwoven Material as an Oil Sorbent

TL;DR: Recycled wool-based nonwoven material showed good sorption properties and adequate reusability, indicating that a material based on natural fibers could be a viable alternative to commercially available synthetic materials that have poor biodegradability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficiency of recycled wool-based nonwoven material for the removal of oils from water.

TL;DR: The results show high sorption capacity of recycled wool for different kinds of oil, and this sorbent exhibited excellent buoyancy after 24h of sorption as well as a good reusability since the decrease in Sorption capacity did not exceed 50% of the initial value after five sorption cycles in oil without water.
Journal ArticleDOI

XPS and contact angle study of cotton surface oxidation by catalytic bleaching

TL;DR: In this paper, surface chemistry and wetting properties of cotton fibres as affected by catalytic bleaching have been investigated and the interrelationship between an increase in capillary constant and the removal of noncellulosic impurities, characterised by the C1 component in C 1s XPS spectrum, has been elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surface characterization of keratin fibres treated by water vapour plasma

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of water vapour plasma treatment on the shrinkage behavior and chemical properties of the surface of keratin fibres was studied, and it was shown that the wettability and shrink resistance of wool were improved even at low plasma treatment times.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the effects of catalytic bleaching on cotton

TL;DR: In this article, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) was used to study surface chemical effects of catalytic bleaching on cotton fibers and cellulose.
