Journal ArticleDOI

Cellulose microfibres produced from banana plant wastes: Isolation and characterization

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of temperature, reaction time, and acid concentration on the properties of the resulting cellulose microfibres were examined and the effect of initial dimension of banana fibres on the size of cellulose was also examined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deproteinised natural rubber latex grafted poly(dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) – poly(vinyl alcohol) blend membranes: Synthesis, properties and application

TL;DR: The in-vitro drug release studies using rhodamine B as a model drug, confirmed the utility of the prepared membranes to function as a drug delivery matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of cellulose whisker content on the properties of poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate)/cellulose composites

TL;DR: The reinforcing effect of cellulose whiskers, produced from banana waste fibres, has been investigated using poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) [EVA]/cellulose whisker composites and showed superior thermal and mechanical properties relative to that of the EVA copolymer alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemically modified natural rubber latex - poly(vinyl alcohol) blend membranes for organic dye release

TL;DR: In this paper, a new blend membrane from chemically modified natural rubber latex (NRL) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was used for release application. But the potential of the membrane for the use in the release application was tested with model organic dyes rhodamine B, methyl orange and fluorescein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and evaluation of properties of poly(p‐phenylenevinylene) based 1,3,4‐oxadiazole systems for optoelectronics and nonlinear optical applications

TL;DR: In this article, two π-conjugated polymers, namely poly(p-phenylenevinylene-1,3,4-oxadiazole) (PPVO) and poly(n-nitrophenylene)vinylene -1, 3, 4-oxADiazole (PNPVO), were synthesized and characterized.
