Geotextiles are used for separation, drainage, filtration and sealing of anti-erosion protection, as well improving plant vegetation conditions. The research objective this work was to verify the effect adding poultry feathers on acceleration biodegradation nonwovens in arable soil. studies were conducted laboratory conditions based assessment mass loss. experiments confirmed positive presence waste rich keratin time required tested materials (the period 1–24 weeks). In addition, ecotoxicity...
Geotextiles are widely used for separation, drainage, filtration, and erosion control, as well enhancing plant growth conditions. The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact incorporating poultry feathers on biodegradation rate nonwoven geotextiles in arable soil. research conducted under laboratory conditions, with assessed based mass loss. findings confirmed that presence keratin-rich waste positively influenced tested materials. Additionally, potential ecotoxicological effects...
Abstract Background Tissue-engineered blood vessels (TEBV) represent an attractive approach for overcoming reconstructive problems associated with vascular diseases in humankind by providing small caliber grafts. The study evaluates biocompatibility and bioaffinity of prostheses made from chitosan-modified bacterial cellulose (MBC) as potential scaffolds TEBV. Methods During the study, acute oral toxicity, up-and-down procedure (UDP), OECD test No. 425 on 10 Imp:WIST rats, intradermal...
Enhanced seeds, e.g. dressed, encrusted or pelleted are often sown in agricultural practice. These treatments play a different role depending on the type and chemical composition of preparation. The aim experiment was to compare effectiveness three coatings (B – chitosan, C chitosan + alginate/jojoba oil/E D alginate/PEG) applied soybean seeds comparison control (A). study carried out cultivars: Annushka, Mavka Smuglyanka. did not differentiate seed yield 2018 due favourable weather...
The article is a summary of lecture presented at the Conference "Polymeric Materials — Pomerania-Plast 2013", 4—7.06.2013, Międzyzdroje, Poland, which gave an overview achievements researchers associated with Institute Biopolymers and Chemical Fibres as well their projects partners, related to topic. does not describe issue in comprehensive manner, but merely indicates possible applications biomass, often mistakenly recognized waste having only fuel value. Cellulose most widely investigated...
The aim of this work was to demonstrate the process manufacturing and applying functionalising additives using a pilot research installation. As part optimisation evaluation, hygienic papers functionalised with biopolymer-biocide compositions based on chitosan, starch Gemini surfactants were prepared. microbiological properties susceptibility biodegradation prototype (prepared in EPICOM) assessed. In particular, minimum amount biopolymer bioactive agent determined ensure finished product...
Abstract PLA/nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC) composite films were produced by solution casting. Before use, the fibers modified with various types of surface active agents – cationic, anionic and non-ionic surfactants. The structure morphology samples fillers polymer analyzed means scanning electron microscopy PXRD diffraction. Thermal parameters characterized differential calorimetry thermogravimetric analysis. tensile strength elongation at break evaluated in mechanical tests. ability to...
Abstract The paper aims to present the main tendencies on global and European natural polymer markets in recent years from point of view requirements achievements Commission that have been expressed programs Strategies, with special reference Circular Economy New Action Plan Green Deal—the EU Strategies for Climate Neutrality. Natural polymers play an important role among biodegradable products whose production international trade has systematically increasing, especially since middle last...
