Abstract
The degree of substitution (DS) of cellulose derivative is significantly associated with its properties. In this paper, a series of quaternary cellulose (QC) samples with different DS (ranging from 0.16 to 0.51) were synthesized with assistance of microwave and their relationship with strength improvement of fiber networks was investigated systematically. QCs were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR, and TGA, etc. The results showed that the cationic quaternary ammonium salt group was successfully grafted onto the backbones of cellulose chains and the thermal stability was associated inversely with the DS of QCs. However, the results of strength test for the fiber networks from secondary fiber of old corrugated containers showed that the tensile and burst strength was enhanced by addition of QCs, and their performance was positively correlated their DS. The best result achieved in this investigation was in the case of QC with DS of 0.51, with increments of tensile and burst strength 6.17% and 11.68%, respectively, at a dosage of 1.0 wt% based on oven-dry pulp. This investigation highlights the importance of DS of QC to its application in strength improvement for fiber networks.

Abstract
Natural dispersants and flocculants, often referred to as dispersion stabilizers and liquid-solid separators, respectively, have secured a promising role in the bioprocessing community. They have various applications, including in biomedicine and in environmental remediation. A large fraction of existing dispersants and flocculants are synthesized from non-safe chemical compounds such as polyacrylamide and surfactants. Despite numerous advantages of synthetic dispersants and flocculants, issues such as renewability, sustainability, biocompatibility, and cost efficiency have shifted attention towards natural homologues, in particular, cellulose-based ones. Within the past decade, cellulose derivatives, obtained via chemical and mechanical treatments of cellulose fibrils, have successfully been used for these purposes. In this review article, by dividing the functional cellulosic compounds into "polymeric" and "nanoscale" categories, we provide insight into the engineering pathways, the structural frameworks, and surface chemistry of these "green" types of dispersants and flocculants. A summary of their efficiency and the controlling parameters is also accompanied by recent advances in their applications in each section. We are confident that the emergence of cellulose-based dispersing and flocculating agents will extend the boundaries of sustainable green technology.

Abstract
Polysaccharide biopolymers are biomacromolecules derived from renewable resources with versatile functions including thickening, crosslinking, adsorption, etc. Possessing high efficiency and low cost, they have brought wide applications in all phases of petroleum recovery, from well drilling to wastewater treatment. The biopolymers are generally utilized as additives of fluids or plugging agents, to correct the fluid properties that affect the performance and cost of petroleum recovery. This review focuses on both the characteristics of biopolymers and their utilization in the petroleum recovery process. Research on the synthesis and characterization of polymers, as well as controlling their structures through modification, aims to develop novel recipes of biopolymer treatment with new application realms. The influences of biopolymer in many petroleum recovery cases were also evaluated to permit establishing the correlations between their physicochemical properties and performances. As their performance is heavily affected by the local environment, screening and testing polymers under controlled conditions is the necessary step to guarantee the efficiency and safety of biopolymer treatments.

Abstract
A series of polyampholytes based on different molar ratios on N, N-dimethylaminopropyl methacrylamide (DMAPMA), acrylic acid (AA), and optionally, N- tert-butylacrylamide ( t-BuAAm), were prepared by free radical copolymerization, and tested as DMSO-free cryoprotective agents for 3T3 fibroblast cells by using a standard freeze-rethaw protocol. Polybetaines prepared by reaction of DMAPMA homo and copolymers with 1,3-propane sultone were used as additional controls. Results showed strong effects of copolymer composition, molecular weight, polymer and NaCl concentrations, on post-thaw cell viability. Binary (DMAPMA/AA) copolymers showed best post-thaw cell viability of 70% at a 30/70 mol % ratio of DMAPMA/AA, which increased to 90% upon introduction of 9 mol % t-BuAAm while maintaining the 30/70 mol % cation/anion ratio. The use of acrylamide linkages in DMAPMA ensures absence of hydrolytic loss of cationic side chains. These polyampholytes were found to decrease ice crystal size and to form a polymer-rich, ice-free layer around cells, reducing damage from intercellular ice crystals during both freezing and thawing steps. These polyampholytes also dehydrate cells during freezing, which helps protect cells from intracellular ice damage. While cell viability immediately after thawing was high, subsequent culturing revealed poor attachment and long-term viability, which is attributed to residual cell damage from intracellular ice formation. Addition of 2 wt % DMSO or 1% BSA to the polymer-based freeze medium was found to mitigate this damage and result in post-thaw viabilities matching those achieved with 10 wt % DMSO.

Abstract
Ancient papers, facing the threat of acidification, aging and microbial corrosion, need to be repaired due to their significance of history, art and culture research. In this work, a new and highly efficient approach was proposed to deacidify and strengthen aging paper by in-situ quaternization for the conservation, in which MgO nanoparticles dispersed in hexamethyldisiloxane was coated on the paper surface and the aqueous alkaline solution and the 2, 3-epoxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride/isopropyl alcohol/water mixture were sprayed in a closed reactor. Results showed that properties of ageing papers were improved after MSCE-8/2 treatment. The pH value was in the range of 7.5-9.0 and the maximum amount of alkali storage was 220 mmol/Kg. The tensile strength and folding endurance were increased by 28.05% and 80%, respectively. The fluctuation range of brightness and chromatic aberration was 0.14 and 1.27. Moreover, treated paper also had the great anti-bacteria and anti-aging effects.
