Article Synopsis
- The study explores the economic and ecological potential of using lignocellulosic biomass by-products by creating innovative hydrogels from wheat straw and microcellulose through a specific oxidation process.
- Advanced analyses like FTIR, viscosity, and transmittance were conducted to characterize the new hydrogels, demonstrating their unique properties, particularly the superior printability of the wheat straw-based hydrogel.
- The research highlights a successful method to transform agricultural waste into affordable and sustainable polymers, indicating promising applications for these bioproducts in 3D printing technology.
