Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental Investigation of Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymers
TL;DR: In this article, the potential usage of virgin Low density polyethelyne (LDPE) reinforced with different concentrations (2, 5% and 6% by weight) of treated rice straw with different lengths (2 mm, 4 mm and 6 mm) is investigated to produce high value products that have technical and environmental demand.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and characterization of ciprofloxacin loaded silver nanoparticles and investigation of their antibacterial effect
TL;DR: Ciprofloxacin (CIP) antibiotic was loaded on silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), which were prepared by three different methods to enhance their antibacterial activity against Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of activated carbon adsorbent material for textile dyes removal: Preparation, and modelling
TL;DR: In this article , several adsorbent materials, including nanomaterials, natural materials, and biological biomasses, are identified as effective adsorbents for textile effluents.
Journal ArticleDOI
The synthesis, production & economic feasibility of manufacturing PLA from agricultural waste
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the economic feasibility of producing Polylactic Acid (PLA) as a replacement for synthetic polymers and showed that PLA pellets are more feasible economically than synthetic plastics if quality requirements are met.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the physical, mechanical, chemical, and thermal properties of the synthesized composite films and determine their feasibility for use in food packaging and showed that the composite thin films can perhaps compete with current thermoplastic synthetic polymers fabricated by melting techniques and serve as an alternative for synthetic plastics.
