It is being developed as the basis of a practical system for recycling carbon dioxide into products ranging from sustainable bioplastics to green fuels. Jelly-like materials known as hydrogels ...

and for some it can help to create a more gel-like texture. As a bioplastic, we believe that combining tamarind gum with other plant-derived, biodegradable ingredients will enable a deeper breadth ...

Orthopedic researchers have developed a promising new nanoparticle hydrogel that can be injected directly into bones weakened by osteoporosis. In a study recently published in the journal Bone ...

Experimental designer and artist Jessie French has generated a collection of bioplastic tableware, made using algae polymers and pigments. The outcome of deep research in response to geopolitical ...

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology-Guwahati (IIT-G) and the Bose Institute, Kolkata have developed an advanced injectable hydrogel for localised cancer treatment. A statement ...

A new injectable hydrogel could change that, however, by transforming into a robust bone regeneration material when exposed to visible light. While bone injuries such as fractures typically heal ...

This new hydrogel system employs visible light—safe for the human body—to facilitate cross-linking, where the main components of the hydrogel bond and harden, and to simultaneously boost ...

Bioplastics currently on the market are vulnerable to high temperatures exceeding 200 degrees, which has limited the use of conventional, eco-friendly plastic materials to products such as spoons ...
