Cellulose acetate is one of the most important cellulose derivatives. Herein we present a method to access cellulose acetate with a low degree of substitution through a homogeneous reaction in the ionic liquid 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-enium acetate ([DBNH][OAc]). This ionic liquid has also been identified as an excellent cellulose solvent for dry-jet wet fiber spinning. Cellulose was dissolved in [DBNH][OAc] and esterified in situ to be immediately spun into modified cellulose filaments with a degree of substitution (DS) value of 0.05–0.75. The structural properties of the resulting fibers, which are characterized by particularly high tensile strength values (525–750 MPa conditioned and 315–615 MPa wet) and elastic moduli between 10–26 GPa, were investigated by birefringence measurements, wide-angle X-ray scattering, and molar mass distribution techniques while their unique interactions with water have been studied through dynamic vapor sorption. Thus, an understanding of the novel process is gained, and the advantages are demonstrated for producing high-value products such as textiles, biocomposites, filters, and membranes.

“…The field of research on sustainability in retail had a time lag of about ten years in comparison to other sustainability-connected research, while it seems to have received more attention in retail management practice (Wiese et al 2012). Over the years and different sectors, topics and geographical scopes of retail (i.e., large U.K. listed retailers like Kingfisher, Marks and Spencer and Next (Keay and Iqbal 2018)) have been covered by researchers, including sustainability of customer preferences and attitudes (Strähle and Müller 2016;Naidoo and Gasparatos 2018;Dabija and Băbuţ 2019), the impact of retail marketing instruments on store choice, store image and/or store patronage in various retail sectors Băbuţ 2014, 2019), applying the generational perspective in retail (Dabija et al 2018(Dabija et al , 2020 but also analyzing stakeholder relationships in retail (Hultman and Elg 2018;Ruiz-Real et al 2018;Naidoo and Gasparatos 2018).…”

Current research about crowdsourcing covers industries like food systems or logistics, leaving out the possible impact of crowdsourcing on sustainable retail. The debate about the sustainable impact of different industries is ongoing, especially discussing the adaption to the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations critically. This paper examines the influence of crowdsourcing on the sustainable aspects of retailing by applying a theoretical derivation as well as an empirical observation. After theoretically discussing the linkage between crowdfunding as a crowdsourcing category and sustainable retail utilizing a literature review, a theoretical framework employing the grounded theory approach is constructed. A total of 24 crowdfunding campaigns aiming at the market introduction of new products or services, each worth over 5 million USD funding volume and run on international crowdfunding platforms, have been taken into consideration. The outcome of the analysis is a theoretical framework presenting three different categories, in which successful crowdfunding campaigns impacting sustainable retail excel: sustainable economic behavior, sustainable community management and sustainable market adaptation. The derived model contributes to the theoretical discussion about the impact of crowdfunding and assists practitioners in reflecting about their approach and goal setting prior to and while crowdfunding.

“…Actually, the eco-movement idea got maximum popularity at the end of the 1970s because of consumer interest in eco-friendly products. That movement has influenced the thoughts of today's society [9] [10]. However, eco-friendly or green apparel is made from sustainable resources.…”

Considering environmental sustainability in the apparel supply chain, the aim of this manuscript is to describe the current trends, such as efficient energy consumption, reuse and recycling, green design and life cycle design, life cycle assessment, reverse logistics, green supplier, green branding, and green marketing considering clean manufacturing and green supply chain management (GSCM) practices for the green apparel supply chain. The primary focus is on the description of clean manufacturing and GSCM practices. Finally, challenges and future research directions are revealed. So, the contribution of this paper may provide equal benefits for both researchers and practitioners.
