Block copolymers composed of poly(trimethylene carbonate) and polylactide can be processed at ambient temperature under pressure by a reversible pressure-induced phase transition between an ordered (solid) state disordered (melt/solid) state.

A single-site Fe catalyst was prepared from bio-based precursors: xylose and haemoglobin. Its catalytic activity, selectivity, recyclability for nitroarene transfer hydrogenation using isopropanol, benzimidazole preparation, is reported.

Packaging materials can arise from a wide range of sources and are commonly used for food, medicine, household appliances, items to enclose or protect products during distribution, storage, sale, delivery, use. The choice material (paper, plastic, glass, wood, metal, multi-layer other packaging) be depends on the type properties product, purpose packaging, price.

Bacterial cellulose (BC) aerogel has great potential in treating oil spill and organic pollutant. However, its inherent hydrophilicity poor rigidity limit practical application recyclability. In this study, elastically compressible high oil-absorbing aerogels were developed by freeze-drying aqueous suspensions with appropriate BC concentrations, followed a chemical vapor deposition of methyltri...
