1. BIODEGRADABLE SODIUM CARBOXYMETHYL CELLULOSE MEMBRANES CONTAINING MELALEUCA ESSENTIAL OILS FOR WOUND CARE MATERIAL
NaCMC is a biocompatible polymer that can be crosslinked with citric acid to form a gel matrix. Melaleuca oils have antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties with potential for wound healing. The goal of this work was to investigate the characteristics of NaCMC-Melaleuca oils gels. The gels were characterized by FTIR, TGA, mechanical analysis, and in vi

2. Developing a Mathematical Model for the Controlled Release Over Time of Sulfentrazone Herbicide from Biodegradable Polymer
In our research group, controlled release systems for the sulfentrazone herbicide has been accomplished by encapsulating this bioactive compound into calcium alginate (Ca-ALG) biodegradable polymer fashion and the release mechanisms were verified by using Korsmeyer-Peppas model (KP). However, the KP model does not allow to evaluate all the phenomena involved

3. Microbial Synthesis and Characterization of Biodegradable Polyester Copolymers from Burkholderia Cepacia and Cupriavidus Necator Strains Using Crude Glycerol as Substrate
Abstract Polymers are materials of pronounced importance in the modern world, since they are massively present in everyday life, especially in the form of packaging. However, most of these materials are derived from non-renewable sources and their disposal generates large volumes of waste, which is extremely damaging to natural environments. In this context,

4. Modification of Chitosan by Zincke Reaction: Synthesis of a Novel Polycationic Chitosan-Pyridinium Derivative
Chitosan is a biodegradable aminopolysaccharide produced by deacetylation of acetamide groups of chitin, one of the most abundant organic materials in nature. Many different types of organic reactions have been described to modify the functional groups of chitosan and produce materials with applications in a large number of areas. However, the Zincke reactio

5. Gold Nanoparticles and [PEDOT-Poly(D,L-Lactic Acid)] Composite: Synthesis, Characterization and Application to H2O2 Sensing
Biocompatible electrochemical devices are challenging to develop due to the toxicity of many advanced electrode materials and the difficulty to degrade the discarded material. Few recent advances were made in the synthesis of conducting biodegradable composites of polymers for electrode materials. In this article we describe the synthesis of two new inorgani

6. Fotodegradação de hidrogel de poliacrilamida na presença de substâncias químicas para o uso na agricultura
RESUMO Utilizado na agricultura como condicionante do solo, a poliacrilamida, constituinte básico do hidrogel, tem a característica de absorver, por processo físico, água e a estocar para as plantas conforme sua necessidade hídrica. Entretanto, a poliacrilamida sofre degradação de sua cadeia, devido à ação da radiação ultravioleta e de sais prese

8. ASSESSMENT OF POLYHYDROXYALKANOATE SYNTHESIS IN SUBMERGED CULTIVATION OF Cupriavidus necator AND Burkholderia cepacia STRAINS USING SOYBEAN AS SUBSTRATE
ABSTRACT Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are biocompatible and biodegradable polyesters produced by prokaryotic microbes for energy storage and carbon reserve. These polymers are an option to diminish the massive impact caused by inadequate disposal of synthetic plastics. In this study, evaluation and characterization of PHA produced by Cupriavidus necator (IPT

10. Biodegradable oil-based polymeric coatings on urea fertilizer: N release kinetic transformations of urea in soil
ABSTRACT: Polymer coatings are used to control the rate of release of plant available nutrients from fertilizers as well as to reduce nutrient losses such as ammonia (NH3) volatilization. Although the literature presents several examples of materials used to coat urea, little is known about nitrogen (N) release properties such as the mechanism involved and p

12. THE MULTIROLE OF MODIFIED NATURAL GUMS FOR MULTICOMPONENT POLYMERS: AS COUPLING AGENTS FOR POLYMERS REINFORCED WITH CELLULOSIC FIBERS OR COMPATIBILIZERS FOR BIODEGRADABLE POLYMER BLENDS
In this work, the capability to use pine rosin as a biodegradable coupling agent/compatibilizer is studied. To formulate composites, post-consumer polypropylene and discarded agave fibers (as reinforcing agent) are coupled with pine rosin (in pure or maleated form). Besides, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) with poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) are comp
