Starch-Based Biofoams Reinforced with Lignocellulose Nanofibrils from Residual Palm Empty Fruit Bunches: Water Sorption and Mechanical Strength

TL;DR: In this article, the incorporation of cellulosic nanofibrils (LCNF) achieved remarkable increases, by a factor of 44 and 66, of the Young's modulus and yield stress in compression mode, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ monitoring of cellulase activity by microgravimetry with a quartz crystal microbalance.

TL;DR: Quartz crystal microgravimetry was used to investigate the interactions between cellulase enzymes and model cellulose substrates and cellulase adsorption was found to be nonspecific and irreversible on gold-, PVAm-, and cellulose-coated quartz crystal sensors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of Physicochemical Characteristics of Pickering Emulsions: Utilization of Nanocellulose- and Nanochitin-Coated Lipid Droplet Blends.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the physicochemical properties, shelf-life, and functional performance of Pickering emulsions may be modulated by blending different kinds of particle-stabilized lipid droplets together.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hybrid films of chitosan, cellulose nanofibrils and boric acid: Flame retardancy, optical and thermo-mechanical properties.

TL;DR: Bicomponent films comprising CNF and chitosan, displayed better fire retardancy than that of neat CS films, and boric acid improved the thermal stability of the bicomponents films.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multifunctional 3D‐Printed Patches for Long‐Term Drug Release Therapies after Myocardial Infarction

TL;DR: Overall, the proposed cardiac patches are viable alternatives for the regeneration of myocardium after infarction through the effective integration of cardiac cells with the biomaterial.
