[EN] The influence of the addition of graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) on the intra/inter ¿ molecular segmental motions of poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVOH) was assessed by means of dielectric thermal analysis (DETA). ...
[EN] Encapsulated fat-soluble powders containing vitamin A (VA) and E (VE) were prepared as
a feasible additive for extruded feed products. The e ect of the encapsulating agents (Capsul-CAP®,
sodium caseinate-SC) in ...
[EN] The extended use of polymers from renewable resources such as aliphatic polyesters or polyhydroxyalkanoates boosted the necessity to understand their behaviour in an end-of-life scenario. Although they can be degraded ...
[EN] The potential of sodium alginate (ALG) and gum arabic (GA) as wall polymers for Lascorbic
acid (AA) encapsulation as a tool for their preservation against the thermo-oxidative
degradation was investigated. The influence ...

[EN] Bionanocomposites of polylactide (PLA), plasticized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) (7.5 wt%, 400 and 1500 g/mol) and reinforced with nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) (1, 3, and 5 wt%) were sequentially compounded, ...
[EN] Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are attractive materials due to their renewable nature, high surface-to-volume ratio, crystallinity, biodegradability, anisotropic performance, or available hydroxyl groups. However, their ...
[EN] Cotton seed was submitted to fast pyrolysis in a fixed bed reactor and the liquid and solid products were characterized applying several techniques. The detailed chemical composition of the bio-oil was investigated ...
