The valorisation of these waste materials is vital to ensure recovery and reuse of the inorganic species, in line with an elemental sustainability and biorefinery vision, and to add economic value in the form of biobased adhesives and coatings.

The advantages of using adhesives include less tissue damage, no incorporated materials that require removal, and a better biocompatibility. In this context, adhesives in the broader sense also perform functions that conventional methods cannot, for example as sealants or blood hemostats. In addition to fully synthetic and semi-synthetic adhesives, an increasing number of formulations are finding their way into research as well as clinical trials or clinical applications that are based on concepts taken from nature (biomimetic) or are a combination of biological and chemical components or are of completely biological origin. The importance of medical adhesives is evident not only in the almost double-digit annual growth rates, but also in the number of publications in this field. The constantly increasing requirements for the approval (CE marking in the EU, 510k or PMA in the USA) of new adhesives (fully synthetic, semi-synthetic, or biological) and the development of such systems in accordance with these requirements and those of the user (medical practitioners) still represent major challenges.

Therefore, redesign of the adhesive system used could prevent 1000s of tonnes of waste and valuable resources ending in landfill or incineration. There has been increased interest in ‘Smart’ or ‘switchable’ adhesives that can change bonding properties under certain stimuli, such as temperature, pH, pressure etc. This has been put into good effect in the carpet tile industry with the development of a modified starch adhesive that can switch bonding properties with steam.","PeriodicalId":202204,"journal":{"name":"Green Chemistry Series","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126959756","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been a decade since major efforts were carried out in genetic engineering and bioprocessing aspects to improve the production titers and yield of 1,3-PDO. Subsequently, polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) was synthesized using 1,3-PDO, which has numerous polymer applications and became a competitor for commercialized polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) polyesters. This chapter envisages a panorama of investigations on genetic aspects for improving the production of 1,3-PDO. Strategies to improve the synthesis of polyurethane and polyester from 1,3-PDO are also discussed. A detailed description of the genetics of dha regulan consisting of genes for 1,3-PDO production, along with the recent developments in genetic engineering strategies to improve the tolerance and production titers of 1,3-propanediol in individual genera, is explained. In focus with the applications of 1,3-PDO, the synthesis of various polyesters and polyurethane materials using polycondensation reactions is also described. Thus, the synthesis and properties of polyesters explained within offer valuable insights into future biomedical, pharmaceutical, and organ transplant applications.","PeriodicalId":202204,"journal":{"name":"Green Chemistry Series","volume":"2 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113939664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After several initial trials of dry coating, electrostatic dry powder coating was developed and has attracted more attention due to its high coating efficiency and low overall cost. In this technology, coating powders containing coating polymers, pigments, and other excipients are directly sprayed onto the surface of the solid dosage forms without using any organic solvent or water. The deposited coating powders are cured to form a coating film. This dry powder coating technology has many advantages compared to organic solvent coating and aqueous coating. It eliminates the limitations caused by the organic solvent in solvent coating such as environmental issues and health problems. It also surpasses aqueous coating due to its shorter processing time and much greatly reduced energy consumption, leading to a lower overall cost. Specifically, electrostatic powder coating utilizes electrical attraction to promote the movement of coating powders towards the dosage forms, resulting in an enhanced coating powder adhesion, uniformity and coating efficiency, making it more promising compared to other dry coating technologies. This technology has already been developed and applied to various solid dosage forms successfully.","PeriodicalId":202204,"journal":{"name":"Green Chemistry Series","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122173888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is no other easier and cheaper way available to produce hydrophobic nanoparticles. The deposition of candle soot on any solid surface appears as a black layer with superhydrophobicity, however this layer is delicate and washed away with rolling water drops or by gentle finger touching. The sole use of hydrophobic candle soot nanoparticles could not achieve a durable as well as transparent coating. The candle soot is then used as a template as well as in combination with silica or polymers to achieve durable and transparent superhydrophobic coatings. Candle soot can prove to be an adequate precursor in the preparation of superhydrophobic coatings and oil–water separation sponges/meshes due to its easy availability for everyone. The researchers who are eager to jump into superhydrophobic surface research with a low level of funding can start with candle soot. Novel ideas and techniques should be adopted to fabricate candle soot based superhydrophobic surfaces.
