National Textile University team develops sap, hemp, and chitosan flame retardant
In Pakistan, a team of researchers at National Textile University has pioneered the creation of flame-retardant biobased hydrogel composites utilizing hemp and wool nonwoven fabrics, enhanced with chitosan and banana sap. The work, published recently in Scientific Reports, addresses the environmental concerns associated with traditional flame retardants, which often contain toxic chemicals. The researchers explored […]
