We demonstrate all-solid-state flexible supercapacitors with high physical flexibility, desirable electrochemical properties, and excellent mechanical integrity, which were realized by rationally exploiting unique properties of bacterial nanocellulose, carbon nanotubes, ionic liquid based polymer gel electrolytes. This deliberate choice design main components led to supercapacitor performance such as tolerance against bending cycles capacitance retention over charge/discharge cycles. More...
Eco-friendly cellulose nanofibers (CNFs), a core constituent of cellulose, have garnered increasing attention as promising sustainable building block source for advanced materials in various application fields. In the present study, we successfully fabricate nanofiber paper from CNF suspension and explore its potential to separator membrane lithium-ion batteries. contrast macro/microscopic fibers that been commonly used typical papers, CNFs are characterized by nanometer-scale...
Abstract Chemical modifications of wood fibers (Lignocel® C120) were performed for biocomposite applications, and chemically modified analyzed by FTIR spectroscopy.

Harvesting solar energy attracts great attention due to its abundant, clean, and permanent characteristics. Thus, photocatalysts have emerged as promising candidates for converting the practically useful hydrogen molecules. Tremendous efforts been devoted in developments of efficient water splitting, but most utilize noble metals improve photocatalytic performance. Progress photocatalyst materials production coupled with a better understanding basic catalytic mechanisms has enabled selection...
Flexible polyurethane (PU) foams are widely used in automotive industries as sound absorbing materials because their porous structure is beneficial for waves. With growing concerns about environment pollution, many studies have been conducted to investigate the environmental impact of PU fabricated with bio-derived instead using petroleum-based sources. In this study, castor oil-based bio-polyol and two types gelling catalysts (amine tin) were applied synthesis foams, absorption, compression...
Hydrogels have been widely studied and used in biomedical pharmaceutical applications. However, their fragile character poor mechanical properties limit feasibility for Incorporating nature-derived nanoparticles can enhance the structural integrity of hydrogels by creating a stable network, resulting with robust properties. This study prepared 5 wt % poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based reinforced different amounts cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), ranging from 0 to 20 phr relative PVA. The were...
