“…The polyolefin typically is composed of either low‐density poly(ethylene) (LDPE) or poly(propylene) (PP) 5,15 which represents a great opportunity to valorize the 500 billion of SUP cups produced annually 16 into new materials. For example, if cellulose based‐fiber from cups is recycled, it has extensive applications in renewable and sustainable nanomaterials 17 used in environmental remediation, 18 biomedicine, 19 nanomaterials streams, 20 energy storage, 21 textile industry 22 and oil fields 23 . However, recovered cellulose fibers need to meet some property requirements.…”

BACKGROUND: The difficulty of separating fiber from polyolefin coatings of single-use plastic (SUP) cups for cold (carbonated) or hot (coffee) drinks, has led us to investigate a recycling method to obtain new high-performance materials. The present work relates to valorization of ICEE S.A. de C.V. cups into crystalline nanocellulose (CNC), while studying the effects on the structural, thermal, morphological and particle size properties in dependence of the acid hydrolysis concentration (40 and 64% v/v) employing sulfuric acid to remove amorphous cellulose.RESULTS: On the basis of results, optimal CNC was found at 64% v/v concentration obtaining ribbon-like morphologies rich in cellulose types I⊍ (27%) and II (45.1%) of triclinic and monoclinic structures, respectively, high crystallinity percentage (91%) and nanosize scale (26.70 nm). CNC was successfully grafted through the C 2 in cellulose onto the methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer to obtain PMMA-g-CNC, considering different concentrations (5, 10, 20 and 30 wt%) of CNC. A reduction of crystallinity % was found when CNC is grafted onto MMA owing to the amorphous nature of the poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). However, this is not a limitation.CONCLUSIONS: PMMA-g-CNC samples displayed high thermal stability (345 °C) and nanometric scale (165-260 nm), which have potential to be studied as reinforcement agents for incompatible polymers such as PMMA and poly(urethane) (PU) through Interpenetrating Polymer Networks. Preliminary mechanical studies indicated that PMMA-g-CNC systems are able to reinforce the tensile properties becoming the PMMA/PU into ductile materials. Specially, the MMA 90 CNC 10 system improved the strain four-fold compared to the pure PMMA/PU IPN.

“…1−5 Nowadays, the textile industry is actively using nanotechnology in the production of advanced textile materials, and many of them are already on the market. 6 Textile fabrics, especially those made from cellulose fibers, are most vulnerable to microorganisms, which significantly shortens their service life, 7−11 so most companies producing textile materials focus on antibacterial fabrics. Bactericidal properties can be obtained both in the production of fabrics due to the nanosize of the fibers that make up the fabric (eSpin Technologies, FTEnE, Colmar) or the inclusion of Ag-coated threads (X-static) and due to the post-processing of fabrics with decorating nanoparticles (NPs)(Ag�SmartSilver, Shanghai Huzheng Nanotechnology; ZnO�Nano Textile, etc.).…”

“…According to the 2021 report (Nanotechnology Clothing Global Market Report 2021: COVID-19 Growth and Change to 2030), the global textile market is expected to grow from $ 4.24 billion in 2020 to $ 6.3 billion in 2021 with an average annual growth rate of 48.6%. The inclusion of nanomaterials in textiles can affect many fabric properties, including shrinkage, strength, electrical conductivity, flammability, self-cleaning, antibacterial activity, UV protection, hydrophobicity, etc. − Nowadays, the textile industry is actively using nanotechnology in the production of advanced textile materials, and many of them are already on the market …”

The use of nanoparticles (NPs) to modify the surface of cotton fabric is a promising approach to endowing the material with a set of desirable characteristics that can significantly expand the functionality, wear comfort, and service life of textile products. Herein, two approaches to modifying the surface of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) NPs with a hollow core and a smooth surface by treatment with maleic anhydride (MA) and diethylene triamine (DETA) were studied. The DETA and MA absorption on the surface of h-BN and the interaction of surfacemodified h-NPs with cellulose as the main component of cotton were modeled using density functional theory with the extended Perdew−Burke−Ernzerhof functional. Theoretical modeling showed that the use of DETA as a binder agent can increase the adhesion strength of BN NPs to textile fabric due to the simultaneous hydrogen bonds with cellulose and BN. Due to the difference in zeta potentials (−38.4 vs −25.8 eV), MA-modified h-BN NPs form a stable suspension, while DETA-modified BN NPs tend to agglomerate. Cotton fabric coated with surface-modified NPs exhibits an excellent wash resistance and high hydrophobicity with a water contact angle of 135°(BN−MA) and 146°(BN− DETA). Compared to the original textile material, treatment with MA-and DETA-modified h-BN NPs increases heat resistance by 10% (BN−MA fabric) and 15% (BN−DETA fabric). Cotton fabrics coated with DETA-and MA-modified BN NPs show enhanced antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli U20 and Staphylococcus aureus strains and completely prevent the formation of an E. coli biofilm. The obtained results are important for the further development of fabrics for sports and medical clothing as well as wound dressings.
