Abstract Polyethylene (PE), a highly prevalent non‐biodegradable polymer in the field of plastics, presents waste management issue. To alleviate this issue, bio‐based PE (bio‐PE), derived from renewable resources like corn and sugarcane, offers an environmentally friendly alternative. This review discusses various production methods bio‐PE, including fermentation, gasification, catalytic conversion biomass. Interestingly, bio‐PE volumes market are expanding due to growing environmental concerns regulatory pressures. Additionally, biocomposites using agricultural as filler materials, highlights demand for sustainable alternatives conventional plastics. According previous studies, addition ≈50% defibrillated abaca fibers into matrix compatibilizer, results highest Young's modulus 4.61 5.81 GPa, respectively. These have potential applications automotive, building construction, furniture industries. Moreover, advancement made abiotic biotic degradation is elucidated address their impacts. Finally, paper concludes with insights opportunities, challenges, future perspectives utilization biocomposites. In summary, can contribute cleaner future.

The electrochemical reduction of nitrogen to produce ammonia is pivotal in modern society due its environmental friendliness and the substantial influence that has on food, chemicals, energy. However, current reaction (NRR) mechanism still imperfect, which seriously impedes development NRR. In situ characterization techniques offer insight into alterations taking place at electrode/electrolyte interface throughout NRR process, thereby helping us explore in-depth ultimately promote efficient catalytic systems for Herein, we introduce popular theories mechanisms provide an extensive overview application various approaches on-site detection intermediates catalyst transformations during electrocatalytic processes, including different optical techniques, X-ray-based electron microscopy, scanning probe microscopy. Finally, some major challenges future directions these are proposed.

This review paper examines the innovative use of liquid crystals (LCs) as phase change materials in thermal energy storage systems. With rising demand for efficient storage, LCs offer unique opportunities owing to their tunable transitions, high latent heat, and favorable conductivity. covers various types LCs, such nematic, smectic, cholesteric phases, roles enhancing storage. It discusses mechanisms LC transitions impact on efficiency. Strategies improve conductivities polymers have also been explored. One method involves embedding units within molecular structure promote orderly arrangement, facilitate heat flow, reduce phonon scattering. Aligning polymer chains through external fields or mechanical processes significantly improves intrinsic The inclusion thermally conductive fillers optimization filler-matrix interactions further boost performance. Challenges related scalability, cost-effectiveness, long-term stability LC-based are addressed, along with future research directions. synthesizes current knowledge identifies gaps literature, providing a valuable resource researchers engineers develop advanced technologies, contributing sustainable solutions.
