Recent Advances in the Utilization of Cellulose from Food Processing Byproducts for the Generation of Aerogels

Gels, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 11(5), С. 359 - 359

Опубликована: Май 14, 2025

Aerogels have garnered significant attention from the scientific community due to their extraordinary properties, including low density, high porosity, thermal conductivity, and large surface area. These properties make them interesting candidates for diverse applications such as insulation, drug delivery, catalysis, fillers, tissue engineering, biosensors. However, production of conventional aerogels is often constrained by environmental issues, cost raw materials, energy-intensive fabrication methods. In contrast, cellulose emerged promising sustainable materials with potential transform various low-cost waste products into high-value biomaterials. Food-processing byproducts provide numerous untapped opportunities generation aerogels. This review highlights recent advancements in development derived food processing byproducts, emphasizing role contributing circular bioeconomy. Specifically, this study focuses on processes which would otherwise go waste. The discusses extraction, gel formation, drying, functionalization aerogel along economic benefits utilizing these streams.

Investigations on coir fibre inhomogeneity and property variations for biocomposite applications

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers Part L Journal of Materials Design and Applications, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Май 28, 2025

Agricultural waste-based lignocellulosic natural fillers and fibres are alternatives to synthetic for developing sustainable composite products. The heterogeneity in the structure of fibre affects its properties. inconsistent performance qualities components made with pose a significant challenge, limiting their use engineering applications. By understanding property variations within single fibre, designers can select appropriate short desired property. current work aims understand fibre's heterogeneities how they affect mechanical characteristics. Coir is categorised into three regions address variation, from root tail region. morphological variations, chemical composition, tensile behaviour chopped each region were studied. diameter internal porosity vary along length fibre. region's intact lower make it stronger than other two regions. However, modulus extracted low. fracture surface reveals delamination cell walls cellulose microfibril pull-out. study highlights need segregation based on growth direction part development.

In the present investigation, combined influence of coir, glass fibers and charcoal content on mechanical properties epoxy-based hybrid composites has been explored, providing insights for potential development advanced materials with tailored performance characteristics. Through a systematic analysis (tensile strength, Young's modulus, flexural Brinell hardness number), various composite formulations were evaluated to discern their The study reveals significant variations in across different configurations, highlighting critical role fiber type determining materials' performance. Notably, featuring alternating layers coir exhibit superior tensile strengths, underscoring synergistic effects hybridization. Conversely, introduction as reinforcement agent leads deterioration properties, indicating trade-off between other desirable attributes. These findings offer valuable strategic design engineering specific applications, paving way high-performance enhanced durability.
