TL;DR: In this paper, the incorporation of essential oils in PVA/SA solutions increased the viscosity but reduced the surface tension and conductivity as compared to pure PVA /sodium alginate solution.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of atmospheric plasma treatment of fabric surfaces in the presence of a functionalized clay, a poly(hexamethyldisiloxane) or both are deposited on to plasma-activated fiber surfaces.

TL;DR: Scanning electron microscopy of cotton fabric showed that the alkaline scouring deteriorates the fabric texture whereas bioscouring with biosurfactant plus pectinase gently removes hydrophobic impurities from the cotton fabric.

TL;DR: A new hybrid biomaterial fibre made from polysaccharide-based polymers with inbuilt ability to gel and absorb large quantities of pseudo exudates is introduced that has long lasting antimicrobial and gelling properties comparable, if not better, than Acticoat AA and Aquacel Ag, two commercially available silver dressings.

TL;DR: It was concluded that both synthesized polymers played a catalytic role in reduction process, however, stability in aqueous system and better efficiency in Reduction process endorsed CLPUR as an optimal choice for further studies.
