Expanded polypropylene (EPP), widely used in various industrial sectors, is generated in considerable quantities as waste.

The composites were characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, and TG-DSC analyses, and their adsorption and UV/H₂O₂-assisted dye removal performances were evaluated using methyl orange (MO) as a model pollutant. Adsorption efficiencies remained limited, reaching 10.5% for Ag-GO-EP and 9.6% for GO-EP. Under the final UV/H₂O₂ conditions, MO removal reached 32.2% for Ag-GO-EP and 30.8% for Ag-EP, with corresponding TOC mineralization values of 24.3% and 22.5%, respectively. Disk diffusion tests showed only limited antimicrobial response against E. coli O157:H7 and S. aureus. Ag-GO-EP maintained its dye removal performance over four consecutive cycles, with a decrease of < 1% between cycles.

In this study, a microfiltration (MF) membrane substrate was coated with an interlayer to fabricate a highly efficient thin-film composite (TFC) membrane. The interlayer was formed by in situ crosslinking of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and glutaraldehyde on the surface of the MF substrate via a layer-by-layer strategy. By controlling the number of coating layers, the support’s surface characteristics, such as hydrophilicity, porosity, and pore size, were fine-tuned. This tailored support layer served as the substrate for interfacial polymerization, which was used to deposit the polyamide (PA) layer. A detailed analysis was conducted to establish a correlation between the support layer’s surface properties and the morphology of the PA layer. Results show that reducing surface pores limits amine monomer diffusion, but nanobubble confinement forms a rough surface. The water flux in the FO process improved significantly, rising from 8.1 LMH in the control TFC membrane to 18.1 LMH in the TFC-PG0.25-3 membrane. This enhancement is attributed to improved PA-layer characteristics, including reduced thickness, increased hydrophilicity, and higher roughness, all of which were facilitated by the interlayer.

One approach is the use of materials with a lower carbon footprint. With that in mind, a bio-based polyamide (PA) compound for use in aircraft cabin components is developed. Apart from requirements in high mechanical performance and flame retardancy, the developed material should be appropriate for robot-assisted additive manufacturing (RAM). This manufacturing method allows for a reduction in component weight and, consequently, CO₂ emissions. Since aircraft cabin components are produced in small quantities that require a lot of manual effort during production, RAM is an ideal automated manufacturing method. This study fills a gap in literature, as systematic studies combining bio-based matrices, halogen-free flame retardants (FR), and glass fiber reinforcement are rare. Different FR and their combinations are evaluated in bio-based PA matrices. Additionally, glass fiber reinforcement is used to achieve the desired mechanical properties. The tested PA610 and PA11 have low flammability but poor mechanical properties.
