Graphene is a promising nanofiller for producing polymer nanocomposites with enhanced mechanical, electrical, thermal, electromechanical, and flame retardancy properties, leading to applications in aerospace, automotive, ballistics, medicine, electronics, smart materials. Solvent-assisted top-down methods, including mechanical exfoliation of graphite, show great potential scale-up mass production graphene dispersions use the fabrication nanocomposites. However, these approaches can suffer from poor efficiency, which limits concentrations graphene/polymer that be produced using situ methods. As such, it important find new ways making more effective low nanofillers. Possible include chemical modification or finding synergies other nanofillers form hybrid In this work, we demonstrate results make each approach. Specifically, low-cost simple method carbon nanotube creating substantial enhancements properties. We also extend scope our previously reported semi-in by demonstrating its application nanocomposite incorporates chemically modified graphene. The superior properties exhibited are attributed increased interaction strength between nanofiller.

Cellulose, the most abundant polymer on Earth, has been widely utilized in its nanoform due to excellent properties, finding applications across various scientific fields. As demand for nanocellulose continues rise and ease of use becomes apparent, there a significant increase research publications centered this biomaterial. Nanocellulose, different forms, shown tremendous promise as tissue engineered scaffold regeneration repair. Particularly, nanocellulose-based composites scaffolds have emerged highly demanding materials both soft hard engineering. Medical practitioners traditionally relied collagen analogue, gelatin, treating damage. However, limited mechanical strength these biopolymers restricts their direct applications. This issue can be overcome by making hybrids with nanocellulose. review presents comprehensive analysis recent relevant focusing hybrid gelatin specific emphasis combination While bone skin engineering represents two areas where majority researchers are concentrating efforts, highlights contexts.

An original design of a simple bioreactor was used to fabricate two tubular, 200 cm long BC structures by culturing Komagataeibacter sucrofermentans B-11267 on molasses medium. In addition, tubular BC-based biocomposite with improved mechanical properties obtained combining cultivation the medium in situ chemical modification polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Moreover, present study investigated production K. strain media different concentrations under agitated culture conditions. The dynamics sugar consumption during were studied HPLC. structure and physicochemical characterized FTIR spectroscopy X-ray diffraction (XRD). Thus, findings indicate that B-11267, when cultivated medium, which is such cheap waste product industry, forms significant amount high crystallinity degree. demonstrated great potential for their application biomedicine as artificial blood vessels conduits nerve regeneration.

Faced with the challenges of modern industry and medicine associated dynamic development civilization, there is a constantly growing demand for production novel functional materials that are clearly oriented towards fulfilling specific applications. Herein, we provide an overview current status recent findings related to enzymatic functionalization bacterial nanocellulose. Commonly, biocellulose modification involves utilization simple cost-effective chemical and/or physical approaches. However, these methods may have adverse effect on both biological properties biomaterial natural environment. An alternative procedures highly nanocellulose, which perfectly fits into assumptions green technologies, making process eco-friendly not limiting any outlooks further usage obtained biocomposites.
