Black cabuya (Agave cordillerensis) is a rosette plant that easily found in the inter-Andean zone of Ecuador and used for therapeutic food purposes. Since ancient times, mechanical treatments have been to obtain fibers, which are generally manufacture ropes, sacks, thin fabric production. In this research, high percentage fiber black was leather substitute. For treatment fiber, technique using blows used, noted being economical since it not necessary perform bleaching process on obtained fiber. formulation substitute, different percentages were (30%, 50% 60%), addition, distribution taken into consideration (random, 45º 90º) make fabric, covered by mixture resins (RD-A RD-U). The best polyester with thickness 0.05 mm, woven completely at random 0.03 mm 25 ml RD-A RD-U resins. Mechanical tests elongation, lastometry tension carried out product. results demonstrated suitable raw material obtaining substitute since, production process, environmental pollution considerably minimized.

Abstract Despite being considered a premium material, leather poses both environmental and ethical issues. Thus, sustainable alternatives such as vegan are in high demand. Therefore, this study, we aimed to produce using vegetable tannins fungi grown on bread waste. Fungal cultivation was carried out bubble column bioreactor nutrients extracted from substrate. To obtain tanned biomass, the biomass subjected tanning (using Tara, Myrobalan, Chestnut, Indusol ATO tannins). A mild alkali treatment isolated fibrous cell wall material fungal biomass. Different composite sheets were prepared by wet-laying placing them multilayer arrangement. The composites post-treated with glycerol bio-based binder improve their mechanical properties. Myrobalan-tanned after post-treatments had highest flexibility of 14.8% elongation at break, Tara-tanned tensile strength 20.5 MPa. Ashby’s chart demonstrates relationship between produced natural leather. SEM used demonstrate softer smoother morphologies Chestnut ATO-tanned post-treatment. Overall, study presents biocomposites promising alternative

Abstract This research investigates a novel method for cultivating mycelium-based leather substitutes using carefully formulated paste consistency substrate. The primary objectives are to enhance nutrient availability, facilitate scalability, and streamline cultivation processes. study spans 21-day period, during which flower-based medium is employed, eliminating the need labor-intensive harvesting techniques. Two fungal species, Ganoderma lucidum (rishi) Pleurotus djamor (pink oyster) tested assess their compatibility with growth method. These species were chosen based on rapid colonization rates inherent resilience. investigation delves into various combinations of crosslinking agents, including glycerol (a plasticizer), commercial tanner, citric acid, magnesium sulfate. effects these agents tensile strength compared qualitative data analyzed through use scanning electron microscopy (SEM) stereo microscopy. Furthermore, explores fabrication potential non-woven textiles derived from mycelium, emphasizing suitability as eco-friendly alternatives. Scaled prototypes highlighted demonstrate feasibility. Post-treatment processes, such dyeing bio-based dyes acrylic paint, evaluated aesthetic impact. contributes biodegradable material alternative that addresses environmental challenges high textile consumption. findings add growing body sustainable design methods in realm leather-like materials bio-design.
