Effect of Nanofibrillated Cellulose on Alginate and Chitosan Film Properties as Potential Barrier Coatings for Paper Food Packaging

This study aimed to test the utility STRAW BENT of ammonium persulfate (APS) oxidised nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) as an additive for chitosan- and alginate-based biopolymer films that could eventually be used as paper coatings for food packaging applications.Sodium alginate and chitosan were used as the base for the films.Various concentrations

A Nano-Rattle SnO2@carbon Composite Anode Material for High-Energy Li-ion Batteries by Melt Diffusion Impregnation

The huge volume expansion in Sn-based alloy anode materials (up to 360%) leads to a dramatic mechanical stress and SPEED ORANGE breaking of particles, resulting in the loss of conductivity and thereby capacity fading.To overcome this issue, SnO2@C nano-rattle composites based on 2 nanoparticles in and on porous amorphous carbon spheres were synthes
