are easily obtained from various marine resources such as algae, microorganisms and …

In this study, Ca2+‐crosslinked sodium alginate (SA) gel films (SA‐Ca/SA2‐Ca) have been
prepared, and their structural and thermal characterizations were investigated using fourier …

Cellulose-based composites have aroused increasing interest as potential replacements for
fossil fuel-based plastics. In this work, transparent cellulose-grafted-PLA nanocomposite …

In the present work, sterculia gum has been explored to devise the network structure via
grafting of poly (vinyl sulfonic acid)(VSA) for biomedical uses. The grafted network hydrogels …
