Characterization of Environmentally Sustainable Resole Phenolic Resins Synthesized with Plant-based Bioresources

Characterization of Environmentally Sustainable Resole Phenolic Resins Synthesized with Plant-based Bioresources

“Green” resole phenolic resins for laminating applications were synthesized, and their properties and thermal stability were determined. The plant-based cardanol and condensed tannin were used as the partial substitutes of up to 40% of the phenol in the synthesis of the phenolic resins. The resins were synthesized with different proportions of phenol (P) to cardanol (C) and with different total...

Bacteriophage-Based Bacterial Wilt Biocontrol for an Environmentally Sustainable Agriculture

Bacterial wilt diseases caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, R. pseudosolanacearum, and R. syzygii subsp. indonesiensis (former R. solanacearum species complex) are among the most important plant diseases worldwide, severely affecting a high number of crops and ornamentals. Difficulties of bacterial wilt control by non-biological methods are related to effectiveness, bacterial resistance and envir...
