Nanotechnology has transformed the world with its diverse applications, ranging from industrial developments to impacting our daily lives. It has multiple applications throughout financial sectors and enables the development of facilitating scientific endeavors with extensive commercial potentials. Nanomaterials, especially the ones which have shown biomedical and other health‐related properties, have added new dimensions to the field of nanotechnology. Recently, the use of bioresources in nanotechnology has gained significant attention from the scientific community due to its 100 % eco‐friendly features, availability, and low costs. In this context, jute offers a considerable potential. Globally, its plant produces the second most common natural cellulose fibers and a large amount of jute sticks as a byproduct. The main chemical compositions of jute fibers and sticks, which have a trace amount of ash content, are cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. This makes jute as an ideal source of pure nanocellulose, nano‐lignin, and nanocarbon preparation. It has also been used as a source in the evolution of nanomaterials used in various applications. In addition, hemicellulose and lignin, which are extractable from jute fibers and sticks, could be utilized as a reductant/stabilizer for preparing other nanomaterials. This review highlights the status and prospects of jute in nanotechnology. Different research areas in which jute can be applied, such as in nanocellulose preparation, as scaffolds for other nanomaterials, catalysis, carbon preparation, life sciences, coatings, polymers, energy storage, drug delivery, fertilizer delivery, electrochemistry, reductant, and stabilizer for synthesizing other nanomaterials, petroleum industry, paper industry, polymeric nanocomposites, sensors, coatings, and electronics, have been summarized in detail. We hope that these prospects will serve as a precursor of jute‐based nanotechnology research in the future.

“…Qin et al [ 256 ] developed SPE by incorporating polyethylene oxide (PEO) with nanofibrillated aerogel and bis(trifluoromethanesulphonyl)imide lithium salt (LiTFSI). The results showed that the ionic conductivity properties of SPE were significantly enhanced due to the negatively charged nanofibrillated cellulose.…”

Wood-based industry is one of the main drivers of economic growth in Malaysia. Forest being the source of various lignocellulosic materials has many untapped potentials that could be exploited to produce sustainable and biodegradable nanosized material that possesses very interesting features for use in wood-based industry itself or across many different application fields. Wood-based products sector could also utilise various readily available nanomaterials to enhance the performance of existing products or to create new value added products from the forest. This review highlights recent developments in nanotechnology application in the wood-based products industry.

“…To accelerate the industrial application of LMBs, numerous efforts have been made to regulate the Li deposition behaviors and enhance the stability of SEI and thus inhibit the dendritic Li growth, such as using solid and gel electrolytes, [14][15][16] building stable artificial SEI layer, [17,18] designing new current collector and composite anode [19][20][21] and adding electrolyte additives, [22] etc. In addition to these works, modifying the commercial separators by physical or chemical means [23,24] and fabricating advanced separators [25][26][27][28] have also been studied as effective methods to realize stable Li metal anodes.…”

As a promising candidate for the high energy density cells, the practical application of lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) is still extremely hindered by the uncontrolled growth of lithium (Li) dendrites. Herein, a facile strategy is developed that enables dendrite-free Li deposition by coating highlylithiophilic amorphous SiO microparticles combined with high-binding polyacrylate acid (SiO@PAA) on polyethylene separators. A lithiated SiO and PAA (lithiated-SiO/PAA) protective layer with synergistic flexible and robust features is formed on the Li metal anode via the in situ reaction to offer outstanding interfacial stability during long-term cycles. By suppressing the formation of dead Li and random Li deposition, reducing the side reaction, and buffering the volume changes during the lithium deposition and dissolution, such a protective layer realizes a dendrite-free morphology of Li metal anode. Furthermore, sufficient ionic conductivity, uniform lithiumion flux, and interface adaptability is guaranteed by the lithiated-SiO and Li polyacrylate acid. As a result, Li metal anodes display significantly enhanced cycling stability and coulombic efficiency in Li||Li and Cu||Li cells. When the composite separator is applied in a full cell with a carbonate-based electrolyte and LiNi 0.8 Mn 0.1 Co 0.1 O 2 cathode, it exhibits three times longer lifespan than control cell at current density of 5 C. dominate the major energy-storage markets over the past decades. Unfortunately, the highest energy density that the conventional LIBs can output is far from the demands of emerging high-energy applications, such as long-range electric vehicles and autonomous aircrafts. [1-4] Accordingly, lithium metal batteries (LMBs) are deemed to be a promising candidate for the nextgeneration batteries on account of the excellent advantages of Lithium (Li) metal anode accompanied with the highest theoretical specific capacity (3860 mAh g −1) and the lowest redox potential (−3.04 V versus the standard hydrogen electrode). [5,6] However, the practical application of Li metal anodes has been greatly limited, mainly because of the uncontrolled growth of Li dendrites in the charge/discharge process, bring about capacity fade and even serious security issues. [7,8] During cell operation, the objective micro-roughness of Li electrode surfaces causes an inhomogeneous distribution of Li ions flux and followed by the formation of Li dendrite. The resulting Li dendrite gradually growth during plating/stripping processes, tends to impale the separator leading to an internal short-circuit sometimes with fire or explosion. [9] The dendritic Li easily snaps off and generates the inactive Li so-called "dead Li", also leads to capacity attenuation of the batteries. [10] Moreover, Li metal can react spontaneously with any liquid electrolyte, which results in a heterogeneous and fragile solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer instantly forming on the surface of Li metal anode. [11] Unfortunately, during Li plating, the brittle SEI is easily destroyed by stress...
