Liquid Crystalline Elastomers as Renewable Functional Materials: From Chemistry to Application
Liquid Crystalline Elastomers (LCEs) are thermosets that belong to the family of “smart plastics”. They combine the softness and elasticity of elastomers, with the orientational order properties of liquid crystals (LCs), resulting in the ability for these materials to undergo large reversible …

COLLAGEN AND ANTIOXIDANTS FROM SEA URCHINS: WASTE VALORIZATION CHALLENGES TOWARDS REGENERATIVE MEDICINE
… while the rest (more than 90-95% of their total mass) is discarded as waste. From the point of view of the circular economy, there is now a great interest in food waste, pointing to the valorization of biomasses to obtain products with added value. In fact, it's already been shown that sea …
