The extensibility of synthetic polymers is routinely modulated by the addition of lower molecular weight spacing molecules known as plasticizers, and there is some evidence that water may have similar effects on plant cell walls. Furthermore, it appears that changes in wall hydration could affect wall behavior to a degree that seems likely to have physiological consequences at water potentials that many plants would experience under field conditions. Osmotica large enough to be excluded from plant cell walls and bacterial cellulose composites with other cell wall polysaccharides were used to alter their water content and to demonstrate that the relationship between water potential and degree of hydration of these materials is affected by their composition. Additionally, it was found that expansins facilitate rehydration of bacterial cellulose and cellulose composites and cause swelling of plant cell wall fragments in suspension and that these responses are also affected by polysaccharide composition. Given these observations, it seems probable that plant environmental responses include measures to regulate cell wall water content or mitigate the consequences of changes in wall hydration and that it may be possible to exploit such mechanisms to improve crop resilience.

Abstract A brand-new environmental-friendly magnetic cellulosic adsorbent MnFe2O4@Cel-g-p(AA-DMC) was synthesized by natural cellulose and easy-recovered magnetic particles MnFe2O4. Magnetic cellulose composites were characterized by SEM, TEM, XPS, XRD, BET, VSM, TGA and FTIR. The MnFe2O4NPs could activate the peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to produce various reactive oxygen species (ROS). Accordingly, magnetic cellulose composites can synergistic adsorption degradation of dyes from organic wastewater. The Congo red (CR) removal efficiency by MnFe2O4@Cel-g-p(AA-DMC) via PMS activated by MnFe2O4 reached a maximum of 96.9% and only 9% reduction after four adsorption-desorption cycles, indicating the stability and recoverability of adsorbent. It is worth noting that adsorbents can be quickly recovered from aqueous solution by external magnet owing to superior saturation magnetization (35.44 emu·g-1). A possible degradation mechanism of CR on the MnFe2O4@Cel-g-p(AA-DMC) composite was proposed. The results suggest that adsorbent display strong potential for the removal of CR dyes from organic wastewater.

Polyaniline Composites

Conductive polymers are polymers that can conduct electric current because they have conjugated double bonds. Polyaniline is one example of conductive polymers with advantages such as high conductivity, excellent environmental stability, and easy to be synthesized. Nevertheless, polyaniline still has disadvantages such as rigid physical properties that can limit its usage application. Some studies state that stiffness can be overcome by forming composites. Cellulose has been used as a matrix in making polyaniline composites because of its flexible nature. In this study, the synthesis of PANI-cellulose composites was carried out with five different treatment variations, including swelling pretreatment and without swelling pretreatment, reaction through sonication, and without sonication. This treatment difference aims to examine the effect of swelling and sonication processes on composite properties analyzed through peaks appear in Fourier Transformation Infrared spectrometry, conductivity using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy, as well as differences in the diffractogram of X-Ray Diffraction. In addition to the variations in the initial treatment, variations in the mass of the aniline were also used. The aim is to determine the optimum amount of aniline used to obtain a composite with the highest conductivity value. Inserting aniline to cellulose to synthesis PANI-cellulose composites affected the absorption peaks at wave numbers that identify C-N bonds in PANI-cellulose composites. Also, there are typical peaks of C-N indicated the formation of hydrogen bonds in the composite between PANI and cellulose. Analysis with EIS shows that composite C with an aniline concentration of 2.0 g/L has the highest conductivity, which is 4.77 x 10-6 S/cm. The diffractograms show the formation of organic compounds on PANI-cellulose composites, marked by the peak intensity and widen diffraction patterns.
