A new book details how lignin once protected algae from UV radiation, then later in evolutionary time became a structural ...

Researchers have developed a bio-based ultraviolet (UV) protection film that has the potential to replace conventional ...

Researchers investigated how to use bio-based materials to produce effective UV protection films for solar cells. The study was the first to compare how the properties of different bio-based UV ...

A Ph.D. student has helped develop a "Trojan horse" method of delivering pesticides to plants, and the technology could ...

Biobased lignin gels have been developed as a sustainable alternative for hair conditioning, utilizing lignin from wood biomass to stabilize emulsions with natural oils.

The lake water likely contained polyphenolic compounds from the degradation of lignin-containing plant matter. It inspired him to create a simple conditioner based on lignin. Lignin has ...

Researchers have developed a fully biobased hair conditioner using lignin gel emulsions, offering a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional haircare products.

The new filters are impregnated with plant-based raw materials, manufactured using renewable energy and packaged in ...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical drivers of aquatic biogeochemical processes, with dissolved organic matter (DOM) ...
