PVA/PVP K90 Nanofibers Containing Punica granatum Peel Extract for Cosmeceutical Purposes

Sustainable Applications of Nanofibers in Agriculture and Water Treatment: A Review

“…Polyvinyl alcohol/starch nanocomposite film reinforced with cellulose nanofiber of sugarcane bagasse was produced using alkaline acid treatment under ultrasonication Nanocomposite film reinforced with cellulose nanofiber [46] Using wastes of bamboo (Phyllostachys pubescens) as lignocellulosic biomass using microwave-assisted ethanol solvent treatment to produce cellulose nanofiber Cellulose nanofibers [52] Lignocellulosic nanofiber can be produced by washing the Eucalyptus sawdust with an aqueous surfactant solution Bio-nanocomposite films [47] Wastes obtained from orange juice processing can be used to obtain biodegradable film of reinforced cellulose nanofiber Nano-biocomposite films [48] Using pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) peel extract beside polyvinylpyrrolidone and polyvinyl alcohol Nanofibers for cosmeceutical purposes [53] Quinoa wastes incorporated with multi-walled C-nano tubes-ZnO can be used to obtain natural cellulose fibers Bio-nanocomposite [49] Producing cellulose nanofibers obtained from the discarded wooden bark of Kozo plant by acidified sodium chlorite and acetic acid Cellulose nanofibers [50] In vitro assay of nanofibers obtained from ethanolic extract of pomegranate peel used electrospinning method Gelatin nanofiber [51] Peach branches used under high-pressure homogeneous to produce peach branches-cellulose nanofiber Nanofiber reinforcer of gelatin hydrogel [41] Crystalline nanocellulose was generated using coconut husk, and rice husk by hydrolysis disintegration Mechanically reinforced polymer composites [43] Nanocellulose incorporated in poly-lactic acid matrix obtained from cotton wastes by acid hydrolysis Production of nanocellulose [54] Producing cellulose nanofiber from pineapple leaf wastes, which reinforced into a polystyrene substrate…”

“…The synthetic material-based composites should be replaced by natural ones in several manufacturing industries, such as the field of textiles, which flax was used in ancient Egypt nearly 7000 years ago [3]. The cellulose is the most important component of the lignocellulosic natural fibers, which many plants could order their content of cellulose (%) as follows straw of rice (41)(42)(43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48)(49)(50)(51)(52)(53)(54)(55)(56)(57), leaf of date palm (46), leaf of abaca (56)(57)(58)(59)(60)(61)(62)(63), bast of jute (61)(62)(63)(64)(65)(66)(67)(68)(69)(70)(71), leaf of banana , leaf of sisal (65), bast of hemp (68), bast of ramie (68.6-76.2), bast of flax (71), bast of kenaf (72), leaf of curaua (73.6), leaf of pineapple (81), bast of nettle (81)…”

“…In a similar strategy, Laosirisathian et al (2021) developed Punica granatum peel extract-loaded PVA/PVP fibrous materials. The antioxidant activities of NFs were determined by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS) assay.…”
