NaNbO3 doped with Zn (0.00, 0.02, and 0.05 mmol) was synthesized by the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. Photocatalytic and antibacterial activities were investigated. X-ray diffraction revealed the coexistence of two orthorhombic symmetries (P21ma and Pbma), with doping promoting a progressive increase in the Pbma fraction. All samples exhibited a fiber-like shape (diameter of ∼200 nm), which remained unchanged with doping. The low Zn content (0.02 mmol) reduced the band gap energy from 3.08 to 2.95 eV. As a result, this sample exhibited superior photocatalytic activity, achieving 100 % RhB dye degradation within 45 min, under UV light. Scavenger tests revealed that hydroxyl radicals, holes, and superoxide radical anions were the main active species involved in the photocatalytic reaction. Additionally, the photocatalyst demonstrated excellent recyclability over three consecutive cycles. Pure NaNbO3 exhibited strong antibacterial activity, completely inhibiting the growth of S. aureus, E. coli, and K. pneumoniae at the tested concentrations. Although the Zn-doped sample also demonstrated antibacterial action, the response was concentration-dependent. This study is the first report on Zn doping in NaNbO3, as well as the first investigation of its antibacterial activity against K. pneumoniae and S. aureus. © 2025 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.

Massive timber is a category of heavy green engineered products, manufactured from glued or glued-free processes, to be used in more predictable structural performance in industrialized walls, floors and frames. Massive plywood panel emerges as a novelty for mass timber construction and, therefore, little information is scientifically available. Aligning with the Sustainable Development Goal 9: ‘Industry, innovation and infrastructures’, this study aims to verify this literature gap and raise topics regarding massive plywood panels using a structured systematic review literature. From bibliometric analysis, 12 journal papers, 10 conference papers and an editorial were prospected using Scopus and Web of science databases. A predominance of studies from English language nations was confirmed. Seismic and monotonic performance of massive plywood are frequent topics in these investigations, whose results have indicated a promising scenario for construction. As no study on industry is available, a case study on massive plywood was sequentially developed to discuss features of commercial panels and perspectives of respective global industry. The North American Freres Engineered Wood and Finnish Metsä Wood are the only active manufacturers, and their massive plywood panels have been manufactured from modern production technologies and environmentally certified practices to be applied in low- and high-rise industrialized buildings.

The demand for sustainable, high-performance materials has led to increased interest in bio-based composites. However, optimizing the mechanical properties of such materials for engineering applications remains a challenge. This study addresses this gap by developing and characterizing an epoxy-based biocomposite reinforced with sugarcane bagasse particles, focusing on the influence of cyclic thermal treatment on its properties. The bagasse particles were chemically treated with 1 M NaOH to remove impurities, improve interfacial bonding with the epoxy matrix, and enhance the overall composite performance. The treated particles j were pulverized to 470 µm and incorporated into the epoxy matrix (0–20 wt%) using the hand layup method. The composites were divided into untreated and thermally treated groups, with the latter subjected to cyclic thermal treatment (100 °C for 3 h over 7 days). Mechanical, wear, and water absorption properties were evaluated, while fractured surface morphologies were analyzed using SEM. Results revealed that cyclic thermal treatment significantly enhanced the composites’ performance, with the 15 wt% heat-treated composite showing optimal properties: density of 1.102 g/cm3, flexural strength of 29.13 MPa, ultimate tensile strength of 103.50 MPa, impact strength of 3.49 kJ/m2, hardness of 64.70 HS, and wear indices of 0.034 mg. These findings demonstrate that alkali treatment and cyclic thermal treatment synergistically enhance the performance of bio-composites, making them suitable for diverse applications, including automotive, aerospace, and other engineering fields.

This study aimed to optimize the ultrasound-assisted extraction of phenolic compounds from the bagasse of umbu-cajá (Spondias bahiensis), a native Brazilian fruit, and to assess their bioaccessibility. Additionally, the influence of different concentrations of the umbu-cajá bagasse (SBB) extract on the oxidative stability of pre-cooked goat meatballs was investigated over a 10-day refrigerated storage period by quantifying lipid oxidation products. A central composite rotational design determined the optimal ethanol concentration, sonication time, and bagasse-solvent ratio. The optimized extract was applied to meatballs at two concentrations: EX2 (meatballs with 7.0 g/100 g of added SBB extract) and EX4 (meatballs with 13.7 g/100 g of added SBB extract). A control treatment (no antioxidant) and BHT-treated meatballs (0.02 g/100 g) were included as references. Meatballs were evaluated by measuring instrumental color, peroxide value, TBARS, carbonyl compounds, and through simulated digestion. Optimal extraction conditions were 55 % ethanol, 20 min of sonication, and a 1:36.8 bagasse-to-solvent ratio (m/v). The extract showed high antioxidant activity and bioaccessibility of catechin (1243.75 %), epicatechin gallate (918.75 %), procyanidins B2 (915.38 %), gallic acid (319.76 %) and procyanidins B1 (136.36 %). SBB extract slowed lipid oxidation until day 10 and protein oxidation until day 5 but did not inhibit color change. The meatballs had low content of oxidative compounds and high antioxidant capacity in the intestinal fraction, indicating that SBB extract can partially or totally replace the synthetic preservative. © 2025

Internal curing is a process based on the addition of materials that work as water reservoirs in cementitious media. Their function is to minimize the effect of water lost through evaporation and self-desiccation that occurs during curing. Hydrogels are polymeric materials that have the ability of absorbing and retaining water and releasing it in a gradual and sustained way. In this work, polyacrylamide hydrogel containing rice husk ash (PAAm/RHA) was synthesised and applied in mortar and concrete formulations. The aim was to study the influence of this material on the hydration process and on the final properties of such cementitious materials. The results indicated that the addition of as prepared composite hydrogel improved the mechanical strength and reduced shrinkage in the mortar in 23%;however, its application in concrete led to a reduction of 7.1% in the mechanical strength. Despite this, it can be postulated that the developed hydrogel acts satisfactorily for internal curing in cementitious materials. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time that hydrogel formulation uses rice husk ash (RHA) and crosslinked polyacrylamide to be used as curing agent for mortars and concrete. Beyond the technological use of composite hydrogel as curing agent, the methodology is also interesting because rice husk ash, as by-product from rice agro-industries, was used. So, it should be seen also as a contribution for environment. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.

Natural fiber-reinforced composites (NFRCs) have become vital in various engineering applications due to their exceptional properties and ease of manufacturing. Properties such as lightweight, sustainability, design flexibility, microstructure, durability, and advanced fabrication techniques have expanded their use across industries. Also, NFRCs are preferred because the extensive reliance on synthetic fibers presents significant challenges in recycling and waste management. Despite their excellent properties, NFRCs have three main challenges: fiber degradation, water degradation, and weak interfacial strength (incompatibility of fibers with the matrix). Consequently, research efforts have been directed at combating these challenges using different surface treatment techniques. However, research has been skewed towards experimental approaches for improving the interfacial strength in plant fiber polymer matrix composites (PMCs). Hence, there exists a dearth of information on the computational approaches for optimizing the interfacial properties of NFRCs. Hence, this review provides experimental and computational approaches (machine learning) for comprehensive optimizing strategies for different natural fibers (plant, animal, and microorganism) and matrices (polymers, metals, and ceramics). This review also highlights the importance of theoretical approaches and numerical modeling in analyzing and optimizing NFRCs. Finally, the review highlights recent advancements in NFRCs, their mechanical properties, potential applications, and future directions. © 2025 The Authors

Recent advances in natural fiber reinforced metal/ceramic/polymer composites: An overview of the structure-property relationship for engineering applications

Hybrid Advances

引用

Hybrid Advances 2025年 8卷

Advances in the material science world drive the birth of a new generation of sustainable materials. Natural fiber (NFs) biocomposites are emerging as valuable alternatives to conventional materials for engineering applications such as construction, automobiles, and aerospace due to their exceptional mechanical properties, lightweight, low carbon footprint, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. These outstanding properties have made them more desirable for engineering applications. However, the focus has been on lignocellulosic fibers, neglecting other sources, such as keratinous, fibrinous, and microorganism fibers. Only a few reviews have considered the structure-property relationship of all classes of natural fibers, such as lignocellulosic (plant), keratinous and fibrinous (animal), and microorganism (mycelium) fibers. Although NFs have outstanding potential from an economic, technical, environmental, and green credentials perspective, they have limitations, such as fiber-matrix incompatibility and moisture damage. These limitations make using NFs as reinforcement for different material systems challenging. Surface alterations are usually necessary to improve the adherence between fiber and matrix. With the upgrade, NFs have the potential as sustainable replacement for conventional materials for engineering applications. Future research should aim at reconciling the mechanical properties of NFs to improve composite quality and fiber-matrix adherence and performance. © 2025 The Authors

This study evaluates the effects of submerged arc welding (SAW) slag as a partial replacement for Portland cement in cementitious materials. Cement pastes with 5 %, 10 %, 15 %, 20 %, 25 %, and 30 % SAW slag were tested for compressive strength, tensile strength, carbonation resistance, phase formation, and environmental impact. The results revealed that up to 10 % SAW slag significantly enhanced compressive strength, with the 5 % replacement showing a 20.10 % increase in strength at 28 days compared to the control. The mechanical improvement was attributed to the formation of the CSH phase, which was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Carbonation tests indicated that the 5 % SAW samples reduced carbonation by 5 % compared to the control, while the 10 % SAW samples showed a 1 % reduction. This suggests that SAW slag enhances the resistance of cementitious materials to CO2 attack, improving long-term durability. XRD analysis also identified an increase in amorphous phases in the SAW samples, particularly in the 5 % addition, further supporting the pozzolanic activity of SAW slag. Pozzolanic effectiveness coefficient analysis revealed synergistic effects for SAW slag blends, with optimal performance observed at 5 % replacement, in line with microstructural evidence of enhanced CSH gel formation. Environmental analysis demonstrated that replacing 10 % of Portland cement with SAW slag could reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 4564 kg annually, while a 15 % replacement could lead to a reduction of 6846 kg of CO2. These results underscore the potential of SAW slag as a sustainable and performance-enhancing alternative to conventional cement in concrete production. © 2025 Elsevier Ltd

Recently synthesized Porous 12-Atom-Wide Armchair Graphene Nanoribbons (12-AGNRs) [Nano Lett. 2024, 24, 10718-10723]exhibit tunable properties through periodic porosity, enabling precise control over their electronic, optical, thermal, and mechanical behavior. This work presents a comprehensive theoretical characterization of pristine and porous 12-AGNRs based on density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. DFT calculations reveal substantial electronic modifications, including band gap widening and the emergence of localized states. Analyzed within the Bethe–Salpeter equation (BSE) framework, optical properties highlight strong excitonic effects and significant absorption shifts. Thermal transport simulations indicate a pronounced reduction in conductivity due to enhanced phonon scattering at nanopores. At the same time, MD-based mechanical analysis shows decreased stiffness and strength while maintaining structural integrity. Despite these modifications, porous 12-AGNRs remain mechanically and thermally stable. These findings establish porosity engineering as a powerful strategy for tailoring graphene nanoribbons’ functional properties, reinforcing their potential for nanoelectronic, optoelectronic, and thermal management *** Codes 00-xx © 2025, CC BY.

There is a growing trend in the consumption of plant-based raw materials and the use of nuts is a promising alternative in the development of non-dairy foods. This study aimed to produce vegan Dulce de leche with water-soluble baru and cashew nuts extracts (WSBE and WSCE). The WSBE and WSCE were produced using a nut: water ratio of 1:6 (w/v) with the subsequent addition of sucrose and heat treatment to produce Dulce de leche made with baru and cashew nuts (DLBN and DLCN). The nutritional composition of WSBE, WSCE, DLBN, and DLCN showed significant protein and lipids levels with high profile of monounsaturated fatty acids – MUFA and polyunsaturated – PUFA, and lower saturated fatty acids – SFA, leading to lower atherogenicity and thrombogenicity indexes. The Dulce de leche showed a balanced energy value (kcal) and lower hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) levels. The sensory acceptance test showed a higher scores for WSBE and DLBN for the attributes evaluated, corresponding to “slightly liked” and “moderately liked” when compared to the WSCE and DLCN, with no differences for the purchase intention, which was classified as “probably would buy, probably would not buy”. Thus, the use of water-soluble nut-based extracts can be an alternative for the development of vegan Dulce de leche, contributing positively to consumer health, animal welfare, and the environment. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
