Writing in Materials Today, a team of scientists from the USA and Italy has reviewed the current progress and recent advances in research into using polymer composites for food packaging to create novel packaging materia...
In an article recently published in the journal Sensors and Actuators A: Physical, the researchers presented a strategic approach for the development of a biodegradable composite filter via the underlaying of commercialized cellulose paper towels under electrospun zein fibers. They also reported a detailed analysis of its applications in air filtering.
An MIT team has engineered a primarily plant-based composite material using CNCs which make up between 60%-90% of the material. If scalable, the material could present an opportunity to fabricate more sustainable natural polymers. The full details of the research are published in the journal Cellulose.
In a recent study published in the journal ASN Nano, researchers from China developed a bio-inspired graphene composite coating to improve anti-corrosion properties in steel.

The strongest part of a tree lies not in its trunk or its sprawling roots, but in the walls of its microscopic cells.
In an article recently published in the journal Frontiers in Materials, researchers reported the fabrication of a superhydrophobic and eco-friendly coating of aluminum oxide/polydimethylsiloxane (Al2O3@PDMS) composite with mechanical robustness using PDMS, Al2O3 nanoparticles (NPs), and a spray coating method.
In a pre-print article posted to the journal The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology, researchers reported the preparation of different nanocomposites, namely Al-10Cu/2.5Al2O3, comprised of 2.5% alumina, 10% copper, and varying graphene (GN) weight ratios up to 1.5% by using a combination of powder metallurgy technique and hot rolling secondary process.
The latest article published in Frontiers in Materials by German researchers focuses on the development of yarns for composite additives made from low-cost hemp separated by a disorderly separation technique (whole fibre line).
In a recent study published in the journal Composite Structure, researchers from Portugal developed a model to study free vibrations in laminated and hybrid axisymmetric composite structures.
Study: Free Vibrations A...
In an article recently published in the journal Materials, researchers experimentally showed that the high-viscosity new generation bulk-fill resins are more resistant to mechanical damage after artificial aging and treatment with water and ethanol, compared to low-viscosity bulk-fill resins.
