Advancements in Sustainable Bioplastics: The Role of Polylactic Acid (PLA) in Environmental Conservation

Introduction Polymers consist of repetitive monomeric units or building blocks interconnected in polymeric chains. These large molecules are typically produced through polymerisation, polycondensation, or polyaddition reactions, traditionally sourced from fossil-based materials. Examples of fossil-based...

Revolutionising Hydrogen Production: The Promise of Natural Gas Pyrolysis

Pyrolysis is a thermochemical process involving the decomposition of organic materials at elevated temperatures without oxygen. In the context of hydrogen production, natural gas pyrolysis refers to the thermal decomposition of methane (the primary...

Curbing Plastic Pollution

Plastics are synthetic polymers made from long-chain molecules and are highly versatile, flexible, lightweight, durable, safe, energy-efficient and cost-effective products used for various applications in every field, such as packaging materials, consumer goods, electronics,...

Self-Healing Concrete – A Potential Sustainable Solution for Durable Concrete Structures

Concrete is a popular construction material due to its large-scale usage in infrastructure and industrial structures. In modern construction technology, continuous efforts are being made to enhance the durability of concrete with reduced maintenance....
