1. Biopolymers and materials from rapeseed straw biorefining
Abstract : Rapeseed straw was fractionated through a hydrothermal process into its hemicellulose, lignin and cellulose components. In the first step, hemicellulose-rich fractions were extracted. Xylan-rich fractions with high molecular weight, 30,000 – 50,000 g/mol, were obtained at 110 °C and 1.5 M NaOH. READ MORE

2. Functional PVC Additives : Core-Shell Nanoparticle and Renewable Resource Plasticizers
Abstract : Several functional poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) additives were designed: PVC plasticizers made from renewable resources as alternatives to traditional phthalate plasticizers and core-shell nanoparticle-plasticizers with the aim to design an additive that can improve several mechanical properties simultaneously. Monomeric and oligomeric PVC plasticizers based of isosorbide and glucose were synthesized. READ MORE

3. Design of new bioresourcepackaging from wood hydrolysates
Abstract : Hemicelluloses are a large group of polysaccharides that have recently attracted considerable attention in many industrial fields due to their abundance and renewability. They are non-edible and possess very good oxygen-barrier properties. READ MORE

4. Bio-based barriers from wood hydrolysates : A pilot-scale approach
Abstract : Wood hydrolysates (WHs) are liquids extracted from the hydrothermal treatment of wood. They exist as the byproduct of forestry industries such as the dissolving pulp and fiberboard industries. WHs are hemicellulose-based with a large share of lignin in the chemical composition. READ MORE

5. Xyloglucan-based polymers and nanocomposites – modification, properties and barrier film applications
Abstract : Biopolymers from renewable resources are of interest for packaging applications as an alternative to conventional petroleum-based polymers. One of the major application areas for biopolymers is food packaging, where a candidate polymer should meet critical requirements such as mechanical and oxygen barrier performance, also in humid conditions.
