Green nanobiopolymers for ecological applications: a step towards a sustainable environment

This article explains how scientists are creating eco-friendly nanomaterials from natural sources like plants and crustacean shells to replace harmful plastic products. These green nanobiopolymers can break down naturally in the environment and are used in applications ranging from wound dressings to food packaging. The review covers how these materials are extracted and processed at the nanoscale to improve their properties for practical uses while reducing environmental pollution.

Resistance of Cereal-Husk-Reinforced PVC Terrace Profiles to Agaricomycetes Fungi

This study tested how well new terrace boards made from oat and millet husks mixed with plastic perform when exposed to wood-rotting fungi. The results showed that oat-husk boards are as resistant as the commonly used rice-husk boards, making them a good sustainable alternative for outdoor terraces. However, millet-husk boards were found to be too vulnerable to fungal damage for this application.
