Article Abstract
Cellulose-based carbon (CBC) is widely known for its porous structure and high specific surface area and is liable to adsorb gas molecules and macromolecular pollutants. However, the application of CBC in gas sensing has been little studied. In this paper, a ZnO/CBC heterojunction was formed by means of simple co-precipitation and high-temperature carbonization. As a new ammonia sensor, the prepared ZnO/CBC sensor can detect ammonia that the previous pure ZnO ammonia sensor cannot at room temperature. It has a great gas sensing response, stability, and selectivity to an ammonia concentration of 200 ppm. This study provides a new idea for the design and synthesis of biomass carbon-metal oxide composites.

Fragrances are indispensable additives in consumer products including foods, cosmetics, and tobacco products. However, their inherent instability leads to rapid quality degradation and performance loss, driving the urgent need for controlled-release systems to stabilize fragrance performance. In this work, cellulose nanofibers (CNF) were used to prepare CNF aerogel-like gels (CA) and carbonized CNF aerogels (C-CA) through freeze-drying and high-temperature carbonization.

Aerogels are widely used in environmental remediation, but their application is hindered by brittleness, limited oil absorption and poor separation of viscous crude oil. In this study, a multifunctional superhydrophobic aerogel with electrothermal and photothermal effects was prepared from bacterial cellulose (BC), methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS), and hydroxylated carbon nanotubes (HCNT) by soft-hard synergistic and directed freezing. The prepared aerogel exhibited an oriented layered porous structure with excellent compressibility and oil retention capacity.

Sustainable active food packaging films have recently emerged as a critical focus in prolonging food's shelf life. Herein, the study focuses on the biopolymers ethyl cellulose (EC) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) for fabricating fibrous films through a simple electrospinning technique. The FE-SEM analysis showed the uniform morphology of the EC/PEO films with fiber diameters ranging from 0.

Industrial pollution caused by Cu(II) ions remains one of the most critical environmental challenges worldwide. A novel green-fluorescent aerogel has been successfully developed for simultaneous sensing and adsorption of Cu(II) through the cross-linking of carboxymethyl nanocellulose and carbon dots (C dots) using epichlorohydrin as a linker. The C dots were synthesized by heating glucose and aspartate mixed solutions at 150 °C.

Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose acetyl succinate (HPMC-AS) is the most widely used polymer in commercially available amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs), due to its ability to aid dissolution of poorly soluble drugs while impeding drug recrystallization. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a well-suited approach to provide structural information on amorphous solids and access intermolecular interactions in multicomponent materials such as ASDs. The C spectral assignments for HPMC-AS differ in the literature, largely due to the significant structural complexity of this polymer, but are critical to identify drug-polymer interactions in ASDs containing HPMC-AS.
