Abstract
The presence of heavy metals in wastewater is an environmental concern and the current treatment procedures are very expensive so it is necessary to find effective and inexpensive biosorbents. In this study, Fucus vesiculosus was used as a biosorbent for the biosorption of Cr(III) ions from the aqueous solutions. Biosorption parameters, such as pH, adsorbent dose, contact time, and initial concentrations of Cr(III) had the most impact on the sorption process. The required pH value for sorption was 5, the biosorbent dose was 4.0 g/L, the contact time was seen to occur after 90 min, and the Cr(III) removal decreased from 98.9 to 92%. The maximum biosorption capacity of chromium was 14.12 mg/g. FTIR analysis of Fucus vesiculosus biomass before the sorption process contains carboxyl, amino, hydroxyl, alkyne, and carbonyl groups, and according to the analysis after the sorption process, it was found that Cr(III) metal ions were incorporated within the sorbent during the interaction with (=C-H) active functional groups. The biosorption data were found to be perfectly suited by Langmuir equilibrium isotherm model. According to the results of this study, Fucus vesiculosus is an effective biosorbent for the removal of Cr(III) from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Paint smears represent a type of automotive paint sample found at a crime scene that is problematic for forensic automotive paint examiners to analyze as there are no reference materials present in automotive paint databases to generate hit-lists of potential suspect vehicles. Realistic paint smears are difficult to create in a laboratory and have also proven challenging to analyze because of the mixing of the various automotive paint layers. A procedure based on an impact tester has been developed to create smears to simulate paint transfer between vehicles during a collision. Data collected from 24 original equipment manufacturer (OEM) paints in simulated collisions using an impact tester with a steel (inert) substrate to simulate vehicle to vehicle collisions shows that attenuated total reflection infrared microscopy can isolate individual paint layers. For each OEM paint sample, the corresponding smear obtained was dependent upon the conditions used. By varying these conditions, the number of distinct layers obtained could be tuned for each of the OEM paints investigated. Furthermore, the IR spectrum of each layer extracted from the paint smear using alternating least squares was found to compare favorably to an in-house OEM paint infrared spectral library for each layer as the correct match (make and model of the vehicle from which the smear originated) was always found as a top five hit in the hit-list. The results of this study indicate that paint smears developed using an impactor can serve as the basis of realistic proficiency tests for forensic laboratories.

Abstract
A flexible, hydrophobic, and multilayered poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) film evolved to replace a commercially available nonbiodegradable easy seal-paper (ES-PAPER) sealing film. First, environmentally friendly fillers, such as cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) or cellulose nanofibers (CNFs), were added to produce PVA + CNC/CNF composites via blade coating and solution casting to strengthen the mechanical properties of PVA. Subsequently, biodegradable and hydrophobic materials, such as poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(lactic acid) (PEG-PLA) and neat PLA, were added to prepare multilayered PEG-PLA and PLA hydrophobic composites using double-sided solution casting. The hydrophobicity of PVA was enhanced through heat treatment. Finally, the mechanical properties of the as-prepared PVA film were compared with those of a commercially available ES-PAPER sealing film. PVA + CNC/CNF composites exhibit excellent transparency and mechanical properties, whereas PVA + CNCs 3.0 wt% have the highest Young's modulus and tensile strength, which are, respectively, 3% and 96% higher than the Young's modulus and tensile strength of an ES-PAPER sealing film. With regard to strain at break, the prepared PVA film also exhibited a value many times larger than that of the ES-PAPER sealing film because of good filler dispersibility, which significantly enhanced the durability of the sealing film.

Abstract
A simple method to prepare phosphate/carbonate composites for use as porous sponge-like phosphate fertilizers (ps-PO4Fs) is presented. The composites ps-PO4Fs were prepared by ion-exchange implantation of phosphate onto the surface of vaterite-phase calcium carbonate (CaCO3) microparticles. The ps-PO4Fs obtained under the optimized conditions were found to contain a nanoscale porous network of calcium phosphate covering the CaCO3 support. In addition, ps-PO4Fs exhibited two distinct phosphate release modes having different kinetics: a fast-release step over the initial 24 h period following a parabolic diffusion model, indicating controlled diffusion from external surfaces/edges, and a second slow-release step over the course of a month following the Ritger-Peppas model, indicating the release and diffusion of phosphate adsorbed at specific sites. The ps-PO4Fs also adsorbed glyphosate well because of their porous structure and large surface area. However, glyphosate adsorption prevented phosphate release at concentrations greater than 10 mg L-1. The ps-PO4Fs were tested for their effects on plant growth and showed effects similar to commercial fertilizers. In summary, these smart, eco-friendly, and multifunctional fertilizers having two-stage phosphate release could enable the application of lower amounts of fertilizer and remove excess glyphosate from the environment.

Abstract
The purpose of the work was to obtain composites based on bionanocellulose (BNC) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) for specific biomedical and cosmetic applications and to determine how the method and conditions of their preparation affect their utility properties. Three different ways of manufacturing these composites (in-situ method and ex-situ methods combined with sterilization or impregnation) were presented. The structure and morphology of BNC/PVA composites were studied by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy and scanning microscopy (SEM, AFM). Surface properties were tested by contact angle measurements. The degree of crystallinity of the BNC fibrils was determined by means of the XRD method. The mechanical properties of the BNC/PVA films were examined using tensile tests and via the determination of their bursting strength. The water uptake of the obtained materials was determined through the gravimetric method. The results showed that PVA added to the nutrient medium caused an increase in biosynthesis yield. Moreover, an increase in base weight was observed in composites of all types due to the presence of PVA. The ex-situ composites revealed excellent water absorption capacity. The in-situ composites appeared to be the most durable and elastic materials.

Abstract
The present work reports the preparation of polyvinyl formal (PVF)/Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanocomposite films using a solution casting method followed by the characterization of the synthesized PVF/TiO2 nanocomposite films using various analytical techniques namely FTIR, XRD, UV-vis, SEM and TGA analysis. The results obtained from different analyses confirmed that the TiO2 NPs was fine dispersed within the PVF matrix and there exists well compatibility among the polymer matrix and the nanofiller. The pristine TiO2 NPs based fabricated chemiresistive sensor exhibits the maximum sensitivity of 50.25% at 370 °C where as PVF/TiO2 nanocomposite sensor showed the enhanced sensitivity of 83.75% at a relatively low operating temperature of 150 °C towards 600 ppm sulfur dioxide (SO2) gas. The 25 wt% PVF/TiO2 nanocomposite film sensor exhibited good sensitivity (∼83.75%), selectivity, rapid response time (66 s)/recovery time (107 s), and long-term stability of 60 days for SO2 gas detection. The fabricated PVF/TiO2 nanocomposite film sensors in our work possesses the advantages of low power consumption, cost-effective, and distinguished sensing abilities for SO2 detection makes it possible for potential applications. Thus, the fabricated chemiresistive sensors based on TiO2 NPs reinforced PVF nanocomposites films are evaluated and experimental results to show an excellent behavior towards SO2 gas detection for industrial processes control and environmental monitoring applications.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop a highly efficient nanofilter for capturing fine particles using electrostatic forces. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), a water-soluble synthetic polymer, was selected as the main component of the filter because it can be easily fabricated by electrospinning. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanopowder with an anatase structure was applied to the nanofilters as it has the highest photocatalytic activity among the existing photocatalysts. PVA nanofilters fabricated by electrospinning could still be dissolved in water by hydrolysis. Therefore, heat treatment was performed to make the nanofilters stable, thereby forming C=O bonds by keto-enol tautomerization. Structural changes in the PVA nanofilter before and after heat treatment were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) analysis. As the TiO2 concentration increased, the fiber diameter of the PVA nanofilter decreased and a homogeneous fiber was obtained. The filtration efficiency and pressure drop also improved significantly, compared to those of the PVA-only nanofilter. Moreover, we observed eco-friendly decomposition of the PVA/TiO2 nanofilter into water and carbon dioxide by a photocatalytic reaction under UV irradiation.

Abstract
In the present study, we have synthesized conducting polymer nanocomposites consist of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), graphene, and polyvinyl acetate (PVAc) emulsion. The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by UV/Vis, FT-IR, XRD, TGA, and SEM techniques. SEM images showed that AgNPs and graphene sheets are well dispersed in the PVAc matrix. The electrical conductivities of the nanocomposites were examined using the impedance analyzer instrument. It was ascertained that polymer composite containing silver nanoparticles and graphene exhibit higher conductivities. The PVAc-AgNPs/Graphene nanocomposite was also used as potential conducting materials for humidity measurement.
