[PMID: 37944725 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 08/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/06/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
The production of hydrophobic and oil resistant cellulosic fibers usually requires severe chemical treatments and generates toxic by-products. Alternative approaches such as biocatalysis use milder conditions; lipase-catalyzed methods for grafting nanocellulose with hydrophobic ester moieties have been reported. Here, we investigate the lipase-catalyzed esterification of cellulose fibers, in native form or pretreated with 1,4-β-glucanases, and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) in solvent-free conditions. The fibers were compared for degree of ester formation after incubation with methyl myristate and lipase at 50 °C. After washing, the grafting of fatty esters on cellulose was confirmed by ATR-FTIR and the degree of substitution determined by 13C CP/MAS NMR (from 0.04 up to DS 0.1) confirming successful esterification. Optical photothermal infrared (O-PTIR) spectroscopy showed strongly localized presence of ester moieties on cellulose. Functional properties mirrored the degree of substitution of the cellulose materials whereby cellulose esters made with glucanase-pretreatment produced the highest water contact angle of 117° ± 9 and esterified cellulose blended at 10 % w/w content in paper composites showed significant differences in hydrophobicity and lipophilicity compared to plain paper. The esterification of cellulose was completely reversed by lipase treatment in aqueous media. These ester-functionalized fibers show potential in a wide range of packaging applications.

Abstract
As the most abundant natural polymer in nature, cellulose has become the promising alternative raw material to replace fossil-based polymer. Owing to the presence of innumerable hydroxyl groups, various approaches are employed to render processability of cellulose. Herein, a sustainable esterification strategy, mechanochemical-assisted esterification, was developed to produce cellulose oleate (CO) with only a small amount of solvent. The differences in reactivity between all types of cellulose were elucidated. According to thermal stability analysis, the degradation temperature decreased after modification due to the substitution of the long oleoyl group. High degree of substitution (DS) of CO also possessed glass transition temperature (Tg) based on differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis. Herewith, the processability of cellulose was introduced after modification. In this study, bamboo waste cellulose nanofiber oleate (BW CNF-OA) showed the highest DS (2.28) among the COs. Its higher surface reactivity due to the high surface aspect ratio led to a higher quantity of fatty acids attached to the cellulose. For the mechanical properties, low DS of COs exhibited higher tensile strength values. In a nutshell, this greener approach is more favorable than conventional chemical esterification in terms of reduced solvent dosage and improved sustainability.

Abstract
Thermoplastic cellulose esters are promising materials for bioplastic packaging. For that usage, it is important to understand their mechanical and surface wettability properties. In this study, a series of cellulose esters are prepared, such as laurate, myristate, palmitate, and stearate. The aim of the study is to investigate the tensile and surface wettability properties of the synthesized cellulose fatty acid esters to understand their suitability as a bioplastic packaging material. Cellulose fatty acid esters are first synthesized from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), then dissolved in pyridine solution, and after the solvent cast into thin films. The cellulose fatty acid ester acylation process is characterized by the FTIR method. Cellulose esters hydrophobicity is evaluated with contact angle measurements. The mechanical properties of the films are tested with the tensile test. For all the synthesized films, FTIR provides clear evidence of acylation by showing the presence of characteristic peaks. Films' mechanical properties are comparable to those of generally used plastics such as LDPE and HDPE. Furthermore, it appears that with an increase in the side-chain length, the water barrier properties showed improvement. These results show that they could potentially be suitable materials for films and packaging materials.

Abstract
Most amino acid molecules have good water solubility and are rich in functional groups, which makes them a promising derivatizing agent for cellulose. However, self-condensation of amino acids and low reaction efficiency always happen during esterification. Here, amino acid hydrochloride ([AA]Cl) is selected as raw material to synthesize cellulose amino acid ester (CAE). Based on TG-MS coupling technology, a significantly faster reaction rate of [AA]Cl compared to raw amino acid can be observed visually. CAE with the degree of substitution 0.412-0.516 is facilely synthesized under 130-170 °C for 10-50 min. Moreover, the effects of amounts of [AA]Cl agent, temperature, and time on the esterification are studied. The CAE can be well dissolved in 7 wt% NaOH aq., resulting in a 7.5 wt% dope. The rheological test of the dope demonstrated a shear-thinning behavior for Newtonian-like fluid, and a high gel temperature (41.7 °C). Further, the synthesized products show distinct antibacterial activity and the bacteriostatic reduction rate against E. coli can reach 99.5 %.

Abstract
New cellulose carbamates and cellulose acetate carbamates were prepared by classical addition reaction of isocyanates with alcohols. A Telomerization technique was used to make the grafted molecules strongly anchored and more hydrophobic. These molecules were grafted into cellulose and CA chains, respectively. The structures of the synthesized derivatives were confirmed using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared and Thermogravimetric Analysis, and their solubility phenomenon was also established, and the carbamate derivatives showed better solubility compared to cellulose. Their ability to biodegrade was investigated, and it was concluded that Cell-P1 and CA-P1 derivatives are more biodegradable than the other samples. These results suggest that the resulting compounds can be used effectively in many useful industrial fields, for instance, eco-friendly food packaging, domains that use materials that are environmentally friendly and sustainable and the development of green chemistry.

Impacts of preparation conditions on the structure and emulsifying properties of casein-alginate conjugates produced by transacylation reaction. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 201:242-253.

Abstract
The Maillard reaction is often used to glycate proteins but produces undesirable byproducts. In this study, the transacylation reaction was used for the first time to prepare protein-polysaccharide conjugates from sodium caseinate (NaCas) and propylene glycol alginate (PGA) as novel emulsifiers. By mixing NaCas and PGA (1% w/v) at mass ratios of 1:2, 1:1, and 2:1 for 2 h with pH maintained at 11.0, NaCas-alginate conjugates with 52.8%, 66.2%, and 76.5% NaCas were prepared, respectively. The purified conjugates resulted in the preparation of oil-in-water emulsions with a low surfactant-to-oil ratio of 0.75:100 (w:v), and the resultant emulsions were stable against environmental stresses of pH, ionic strength, and thermal pasteurization. Structural analyses showed the role of NaCas content in reducing droplet size and the role of the alginate moiety stabilizing oil droplets via the electrostatic and steric mechanisms. This work may be significant to prepare protein-polysaccharide conjugates with high emulsifying capacity and tunable functionalities using a scalable and green method.

Abstract
Mechanochemical reaction, a green synthetic esterification route was utilized to prepare long-chain cellulose esters from microcrystalline cellulose. The influence of reaction conditions such as reaction temperature and time were elucidated. Only low dosage of oleic acid, 1-butyl-3-metylimidazolium acetate, and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride were required. The success of modification reaction was confirmed by Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy as a new absorbance peak at 1731 cm−1 was observed, which indicated the formation of carbonyl group (C=O). Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance was also performed to determine the structural property and degree of substitution (DS) of the cellulose oleate. Based on the results, increasing reaction temperature and reaction time promoted the esterification reaction and DS. DS values of cellulose oleates slightly decreased after 12 h reaction time. Besides, X-ray diffraction analysis showed the broadening of the diffraction peaks and thermal stability decreased after esterification. Hence, the findings suggested that grafting of oleic acid’s aliphatic chain onto the cellulose backbone lowered the crystallinity and thermal stability.

Abstract
Protein-polysaccharide conjugates usually have better emulsifying properties than their constituent biopolymers. In this study, casein-alginate conjugates were prepared using a transacylation reaction between different types of caseins and propylene glycol alginate (PGA) at pH 11.0. The purified conjugates had the combined molecular structure of casein and hydrolyzed PGA (alginate), according to Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and α-, β-, and κ-casein-alginate conjugates had 39.17%, 37.78%, and 23.14% protein content, respectively. Emulsions were prepared with all the conjugates at a surfactant-to-oil ratio of 1:100 (w: (v), which is much lower than emulsions stabilized by Maillard-type protein-polysaccharide conjugates. The emulsions had high stability during storage and at wide pH (3.0-11.0) and ionic strength (0-450 mM) ranges. The interfacial tension of conjugate dispersions and therefore the droplet size were dependent on the protein content, not the casein type, while the polysaccharide moiety was critical to the emulsion stability. The present findings suggest a transacylation reaction can be used to prepare protein-alginate conjugates with novel emulsifying properties.

Abstract
Arabinoxylan (AX) and cellulose were extracted from wheat straw, whereas starch was extracted from potato peel. Thereafter, cellulose and starch were esterified with lauric, myristic, palmitic and stearic acids to prepare corresponding cellulose (CFAs) and starch fatty acid esters (SFAs) with DS 2.1-2.8. XRD study revealed remarkable loss of crystallinity in cellulose and starch due to fatty acid esterification. The addition of palmitate and stearate esters of cellulose and starch to AX formed laminar film microstructures which limited water vapor permeability whereas films prepared by blending AX with laurate and myristate esters of starch and cellulose were less effective as water vapor barrier due to their non-layer microstructures. The laminar structures also resulted significant reduction in mechanical strength of the composite films. Furthermore, all AX-CFAs and AX-SFAs films were thermally more stable than native composite films. These films might be used to produce industrially useful coating material for food products.

Abstract
Wood and plant fibers have been studied as natural sorbent materials for treating aquatic oil spills; however, the effectiveness of these materials is limited by their tendency to absorb water as well as oil. Chemical pretreatment of cotton fibers with fatty acids was examined as a means of enhancing the performance of cotton as a sorbent for crude oil. A raw cotton fiber was chemically modified with C18 fatty acid by simple leaving group chemistry. Free surface hydroxyl groups were modified with long alkyl chains to create fibers that displayed increased water contact angles, indicative of a significant decrease in surface energy. The increased affinity for oil and corresponding repulsion of water on the individual modified fibers translated to greater sorption of oil and rejection of water by loose assemblies of fibers (i.e., balls or yarn) when compared with unmodified cotton. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), 13C cross-polarization/magic angle spinning solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (CP/MAS SSNMR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that cotton fibers were significantly exfoliated by the intercalation of C18 fatty acids about 2.4 times in its diameter. In the presence of seawater, the highly oleophilic C18 fatty acid-modified cotton fiber showed a maximum oil sorption capacity of 35.58 g per gram of fiber, about ∼49% greater than that of the corresponding raw cotton fiber.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Strongly degraded cellulosic artworks usually need deacidification and consolidation. Alkaline nanoparticles are known to be effective in neutralizing the acidity, while cellulose nanocrystals have the potential to be used as compatible and effective strengthening agents. EXPERIMENTS We have grafted cellulose nanocrystals with oleic acid using a 1'1-carbonyldiimidazole-mediated procedure, to increase their dispersibility in organic solvents, and synthesized Ca(OH)2 or CaCO3 nanoparticles via a solvothermal process. Grafted nanocellulose and alkaline nanoparticles were used to prepare ethanol-based "hybrids". Prior to the application, the physico-chemical properties of nanocellulose dispersions and "hybrids" were studied by rheology and small-angle X-ray scattering. FINDINGS Cellulose nanocrystals were effectively grafted and stably dispersed in ethanol. It was shown that the use of ethanol as a dispersing medium, and the addition of alkaline nanoparticles act in a synergistic way, increasing the interactions between grafted cellulose nanocrystals, leading to the formation of clusters. These dispersions are thixotropic, a behavior particularly appealing to conservation purposes, since they can be applied in the liquid state, or, when a more confined application is required, they can be applied in a gel-like state. As a result of the application, an improvement in the mechanical properties of paper and an increase of pH were obtained.

Abstract
The present work aims towards the structuring of a physically cross-linked aerogels based on nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), i.e., NFC/PVA aerogels for oil spillage cleanup. Highly porous (98%) NFC/PVA aerogels having both meso-micro pores were achieved by freeze drying technique. To impart super-hydrophobicity to the composite aerogel, a simple dip coating process was adopted using stearic acid chloride (SAC) solution. The SAC conjugated aerogels combined both superhydrophobic and oleophilic characteristics showed a contact angle of ∼159° and ∼0° with water and oil respectively. FESEM and X-ray microtomography images revealed a self-assembled 3D porous cellular structure of the aerogels. The prepared aerogels were found to be very efficient in separating a series of oil/water mixtures and various organic solvents with excellent selectivity and recyclability. Absorption capacity of the aerogels was at least 35 times higher than their dry weight. Simple mechanical squeezing method was adopted for repetitive uses.

Abstract
Mixed fatty acid-modified aggregators have been developed as potential crude oil sorbents. Cheap pine wood flour was first modified with oleic acid (OA) and further modified with a second fatty acid by a leaving group chemistry, where a surface hydroxyl group is first replaced by p-toluenesulfonyl group and a fatty acid forms a covalent bond on sawdust surface through esterification at the elevated temperature (55 °C). Two OA-modified base materials, pine/OA-106 and pine/OA-124, with different OA-coverages were first prepared and the second fatty acids with C3, C6, C8, C10, C12, C14, or C16 alkyl chains were applied to cover the remaining surface hydroxyl groups. The crude oil sorption capacities of the mixed fatty acid-modified aggregators were studied and compared with those of the base materials. The results showed that mixed fatty acid-modified aggregators increased up to 45.6% more crude oil sorption than those of OA-modified base materials. A correlation between surface property and sorption capacity was studied by moisture sorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, 13C cross polarization and magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance, thermal gravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. To our knowledge, no report has been published for mixed fatty acid-modified herders or aggregators in the environmental remediation.

Abstract
This work investigates historical and replica Turkey red textiles with diffuse reflectance infrared (DRIFT) spectroscopy to study the coordination complex between cellulose, fatty acids, and the aluminium ions that form the basis of the colour lake. Turkey red was produced in Scotland for around 150 years, and is held in many museum and archive collections. The textile was renowned for its brilliant red hue, and for its fastness to light, washing, rubbing, and bleaching. This was attributed to its unusual preparatory process, the chemistry of which was never fully understood, that involved imbuing cotton with a solution of aqueous fatty acids and then aluminium in the following step. Here we show, for the first time, a characterisation of the Turkey red complex on replica and historical textiles. The development of techniques for non-destructive and in situ analysis of historical textiles is valuable for improving understanding of their chemistry, hopefully contributing to better conservation and display practices. The results show the fatty acids condense onto the cellulose polymer via hydrogen bonding between the CO and OH of the respective compounds, then the aluminium forms a bridging complex with the fatty acid carboxyl. This contributes to an improved understanding of Turkey red textiles, and shows the useful application of handheld diffuse FTIR instruments for heritage textile research.

Abstract
Nowadays one of the growing trends is to replace oil-based products with cellulose-based materials. Currently most cellulose esters require a huge excess of chemicals and have therefore, not been broadly used in the industry. Here, we show that decreasing the molar mass of cellulose by ozone hydrolysis provides cellulose functionalization with less chemical consumption. To reveal the differences in reactivity and chemical consumption, we showed esterification of both native cellulose and ozone treated hydrolyzed cellulose. Based on the results, the molar mass of the starting cellulose has a significant effect on the end product's degree of substitution and properties. Furthermore, molar mass controlled palmitate esters form mechanically strong, flexible and optically transparent films with excellent water barrier properties. We anticipate that molar mass controlled cellulose will provide a starting point for the greater use of cellulose based materials, in various application, such as films and composites.

Abstract
Aggregates of microfibrillated cellulose isolated from wheat straw fibers were subjected to propionylation under different processing conditions of time, temperature and concentration. The treated fibers were then homogenized to obtain surface modified nanofibrillated cellulose. For varying parameters, progress of propionylation and its effects on various characteristics was investigated by FTIR, degree of substitution, elemental analysis, SEM, EDX, TEM, X-ray diffraction, static and dynamic contact angle measurements. Thermal stability of the nanofibrils was also investigated using thermogravimetric technique. FTIR analysis confirmed the propionylation of the hydroxyl groups of the cellulose fibers. The variations in reaction conditions such as time and temperature had shown considerable effect on degree of substitution (DS) and surface contact angle (CA). These characterization results represent the optimizing conditions under which cellulose nanofibrils with hydrophobic characteristics up to contact angle of 120° can be obtained.

Abstract
A facile approach was developed to modify chitin whiskers by reacting them with bromohexadecane, and the potential application of modified whiskers in structuring oil was evaluated. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD), elemental analysis, solid (13)C NMR, and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) confirmed that the long alkyl chains were successfully introduced to the chitin whiskers and endowed them with improved hydrophobicity and thermal transition. By hot pressing the modified whiskers, the highly hydrophobic whisker sheets were constructed, showing high contact angles close to 150°. The hydrophobic interaction between the long alkyl chains and chitin backbone induced the crystal alignment with micro-nano structure, leading to the surface roughness and high hydrophobicity of the sheets. Furthermore, the modified whiskers could form a stable dispersion in sunflower oil, displaying a remarkable thickening effect. The viscosity of the oily suspension exhibited temperature dependence and shear-thinning behavior, suggesting great potentials to fabricate oleogel without adding any saturated fat. Furthermore, the intrinsic biocompatibility of α-chitin structure benefits its application in foodstuff, cosmetics, and medical fields.

Abstract
The technology used in the manufacturing of televisions and monitors has been changing in recent years. Monitors with liquid crystal displays (LCD) emerged in the market with the aim of replacing cathode ray tube monitors. As a result, the disposal of this type of product, which is already very high, will increase. Thus, without accurate knowledge of the components and materials present in an LCD monitor, the recycling of materials, such as mercury, thermoplastic polymers, glasses, metals and precious metals amongst others, is not only performed, but allows contamination of soil, water and air with the liberation of toxic compounds present in this type of waste when disposed of improperly. Therefore, the objective of this study was to disassemble and characterize the materials in this type of waste, identify the composition, amount and form to enable, in further work, the development of recycling routes. After various tests and analyses, it was observed that an LCD display can be recycled, provided that precautions are taken. Levels of lead, fluoride and copper are above those permitted by the Brazilian law, characterizing this residue as having a high pollution potential. The materials present in printed circuit boards (base and precious metals)-thermoplastics, such as polyethylene terephthalate, acrylic, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and polycarbonate and metals, such as steel and aluminum, and a layer of indium (in the internal face of the glass)-are components that make a point in terms of their potential for recycling.

Abstract
Traditionally, a long reaction time was required in the synthesis of cellulose esters (CEs). In this work, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/aqueous NaOH or KOH was introduced as an efficient reaction system for rapidly synthesizing CEs by transesterification. Surprisingly, cellulose could react with vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, and vinyl butyrate and synthesized cellulose acetate, cellulose propionate, and cellulose butyrate with a high degree of substitution (2.14-2.34) in 5 min, which was in sharp contrast to hours of existing methods. The effects of solvents, catalysts, and esterifying agents on the synthesis of CEs were comparatively investigated to better understand this method. The structure and thermal properties of obtained CEs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and (1)H and (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopies and differential scanning calorimetry. Results from these spectra confirmed the successful synthesis of these CEs. Furthermore, these CEs showed similar thermal properties compared to products obtained from other methods.

Abstract
Aliphatic esters of cellulose have recently raised the interest on the field of biopolymers. The objective of this work is to develop a methodology for the enzymatic acylation of cellulose with long chain fatty groups in one step. Therefore we designed a system at which fibrous cellulose was enzymatically acylated with vinyl laurate in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) and as a result cellulose laurate was formed. The biocatalysts used for this reaction were immobilized lipase Candida antarctica, immobilized esterase from hog liver and the immobilized cutinase Fusarium solani. The ester content of the product varied on the specificity of the biocatalyst used, reaching a maximum of 4.1% after 9h of reaction. In our knowledge, it is the first time where fibrous cellulose is enzymatically acylated by a long chain aliphatic group in one step, without the necessity of any pretreatment.

Abstract
A lot of attention is currently being paid to the transition to a biobased economy. In this movement, most efforts concentrate on the development of bioenergy applications including bioethanol, biodiesel, thermochemical conversion of biomass, and others. However, in the energy sector other nonbiomass alternatives are known, whereas no valuable alternatives are available when thinking about chemical building blocks. Therefore, it is also essential to develop new routes for the synthesis of bio-based chemicals and materials derived thereof. Such intermediates can originate either from plants or from animals. Castor oil is a non-edible oil extracted from the seeds of the castor bean plant Ricinus communis (Euphorbiaceae), which grows in tropical and subtropical areas. Globally, around one million tons of castor seeds are produced every year, the leading producing areas being India, PR China, and Brazil.2 10-Undecenoic acid or undecylenic acid is a fatty acid derived from castor oil that, owing to its bifunctional nature, has many possibilities to develop sustainable applications.
