Cellulose Extraction From Green Algae, Ulva Ohnoi, and Its Application to PVA ‐Based Antibacterial Composite Films Incorporated With Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles
Cellulose was extracted from green algae (Ulva ohnoi) by various chemical treatments. Extracted cellulose was blended with polyvinyl alcohol to prepare composite films. ZnO-NP was further added to give UV-barrier and antibacterial properties of the films. ABSTRACTCellulose was successfully extracted from green algae (Ulva ohnoi) by chemical treatments. The contents of holocellulose and α-cellulose significantly increased from 37.6% and 3.3% to 82.5% and 63.3%, respectively, after whole extraction treatments. The extracted cellulose (EC) was mixed to polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to prepare EC/PVA composite films with polyethyle...

Pectin From Fruit Peel Waste: A Sustainable Source for Production of Active Packaging Films
Composite film prepared using PVA, pectin form passion and lime peel had excellent mechanical, optical, thermal and bioactive properties. This film was used to pack strawberries and plums during chilled storage. Active film could significantly increase the shelf life of both the fruits. ABSTRACTPectin from lemon and passion fruit peels was studied for its potential to serve as a source of biopolymer for preparation of active film. To develop a packaging film appropriate for fruits, different combinations of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), pectin from lemon and passion fruit peel and rosemary essential oil (REO) were evaluated. Ex...

Measuring and Assessing Long ‐Duration Impacts for Truck and Trailer
This study revealed that the left-turning and longitudinal braking are the two most critical long-duration impacts. Lateral impacts with accelerations equal to or exceeding 4.0  g occurred four (4) times more frequently than longitudinal acceleration. Turning, braking, and acceleration each exhibit a distinct impact pulse pattern in lateral and longitudinal orientations for the truck and trailer. Impact acceleration experienced by the truck is roughly 15%–17% higher th at encountered by the trailer. ABSTRACTA vehicle's long-duration impacts events are experienced during turning, braking, and accelerating and decelerati...

A New Protocol for Obtaining Mucilage and Biopolymeric Ecofilms From Cacti
This study introduces an innovative approach by recycling ethanol in cactus mucilage extraction to create eco-friendly biopolymeric films. Distilling residual ethanol reduced pigments while preserving 82% of the alcohol. Ecofilms from distilled alcohol-extracted mucilage were thinner, less soluble, more transparent and rupture-resistant. Adding calcium lactate improved water solubility, water vapour permeability and thickness, while enhancing resistance and thermal stability. These ecofilms have potential applications as edible coatings, offering environmental benefits and cost savings for the industry. ABSTRACTThe objecti...
