Hassanein Shaban

New Environmentally-Friendly Materials · 52-71 · 10.55121/nefm.v5i1.1281

Liquid-crystalline (LC) materials—traditionally known for displays—are now emerging as sustainable functional materials. In particular, plant-derived LCs (cellulose nanocrystals, hydroxypropyl cellulose, etc.) and bio-based polymer networks can form biodegradable, stimuli-responsive coatings and eco-friendly composites. Recent a
