Durable nanofibrous matrices augmented with hydrotalcite-like compounds for cutaneous regeneration of burn wounds

Electrospinning of Gelatin (G) and Poly-3-hydroxybutyric acid (P) incorporated with anionic drug (AgSD) loaded hydrotalcite (L) (L-AgSD) is carried out to fabricate a nanofibrous scaffold which would recreate the native extracellular matrix...

Incorporation of cellulose fiber in glass ionomer cement

This study investigated the effect of discontinuous cellulose microfibers with various loading fractions on selected physical properties of glass polyalkenoate (glass ionomer) cement (GIC). Fiber‐reinforced GIC (Exp‐GIC) was prepared by adding discontinuous...

Fabrication of Biohybrid Polysaccharide-Protein Material for Wound-Healing Application

Tissue engineering is currently one the fastest growing engineering fields, requiring fabrication of advanced and multifunctional materials to be used as scaffolds or dressing for tissue regeneration. In this work, a bilayer...

Topochemical engineering of composite hybrid fibers using layered double hydroxides and abietic acid

Topochemical engineering of hybrid materials is an efficient way of synthesizing hydrophobic and highly tensile fiber composites by utilizing the intermolecular hydrogen bonds in natural materials. These materials include wood pulp fibers,...

A Novel Catalyst: Biohybrid cellulose beads

Cellulose-based materials are very attractive for emerging bioeconomy as they are renewable, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly. Cellulose beads are spherical and porous and can be highly engineered to be used as catalyst...

Cellulose fibre-reinforced biofoam

Traditionally, polymers and macromolecular components used in the foam industry are mostly derived from petroleum. The current transition to a bio-economy creates demand for the use of more renewable feedstocks. Soybean oil...

A new class of superhydrophobic hybrid materials

Technical composite materials derived from renewable sources are always of high importance due to cost-effectiveness and environmental concern. Cellulose, a renewable biopolymer stays constantly at the high realm in terms of valorization...

Fluorescent multifunctional fibres

The paper describes the synthesis of multifunctional cellulose derivatives (MCDs) containing a fluorescent and a cationic moiety and their application in the functionalization of pulp fibers. The cellulose derivatives, namely N-(3-propanoic acid)-...

Biocatalytic fibre surfaces

Biocatalytic pulp fibers were prepared using surface functionalization of bleached kraft pulp with amino groups (F) and further immobilization of a cross-linked glucose oxidase (G*) from Aspergillus niger. The cross-linked enzymes (G*)...

Cellulose biotemplate for inorganic porous networks

Synthesis of porous network structures of layered double hydroxides (LDH) has been studied using microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as a hard template. LDH was synthesized using cellulose as biotemplate and post treated by...
