Recyclability is the ability of a material to reacquire the same properties it had originally. The aim of this work was to verify the recyclability of three printing and writing papers, from the characteristics of their ...

Dynamic covalent bonds are revolutionizing the design of recyclable polymer networks, offering transformative solutions to the challenges of waste and sustainability. This study reports the synthesis and purification of ...

The global transition to sustainable energy systems requires breakthroughs in electrochemical storage technologies that are not only safe but also resource efficient. Solid-state batteries (SSBs), which use superionic so...

A 3-D magnetic graphene ball (MGB) material was prepared using cellulose as the carbon source. Carbon-encapsulated iron nanoparticles (CEINs) were first prepared by hydrothermal carbonization of cellulose powder at 180°...

Abstract Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and microplastics (MPs) are certain types of persistent plastic contaminants that are a cause of concern to both the ecosystems and human health. The nanotechnologies o...

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) and dual-atom catalysts (DACs) have emerged as promising materials for activating persulfate (PS) in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) aimed at degrading organic pollutants. This review sys...

Metallic nanoparticles (NPs) have gained interest due to their practical applications in various areas. The synthesis of NPs from biomass proposes a simple, economical and environmentally friendly alternative. In this wo...

Thermoplastic polymers have emerged as compelling alternatives to conventional thermosets in response to increasing environmental concerns, primarily due to their superior recyclability and enhanced sustainability charac...

Sustainability efforts are gaining prominence in the over $300 billion U.S. grape and wine industry. Wine packaging can account for up to a third of the total carbon footprint associated with wine production, primarily d...

The photocatalytic degradation, as an environmental-friendly technology, has great significance for cost-effective and efficient catalysis processes, wherein piezo-photocatalysis can significantly increase the catalytic ...

Sunlight and water are among the most plentiful and sustainable resources of energy. Natural photosystem II in the plants uses these resources in ecofriendly manner for the production of atmospheric oxygen and energy. In...

Abstract Achieving sustainability in resource-intensive industries such as cement production requires a transition away from synthetic plastic packaging toward biodegradable alternatives that reduce long-term environment...

This study focusing on a carbon fibre-reinforced polyamide 6 (CFPA6) crash box system designed, manufactured, and crash-tested within an aluminium environment as part of a novel automotive front-end structure (FES). A ke...
