WIN Thematic Seminar Series: Sustainable Nanomaterials for Environmental Management Systems

Sustainable nanomaterials, such as cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are rod-like nanoparticles obtained by sulfuric acid hydrolysis of cellulose fibres. Several properties of CNCs, such as their availability, low cost, high mechanical strength, a large number of surface functional groups, high surface area per volume and aspect ratio have led to an increasing interest in using them for adsorption and controlled release applications. Pristine CNCs were incorporated into hydrogel beads in order to eliminate the need for centrifugation.

Abstract: As one of the most essential factors of learning environment, lighting in classroom has been found to have significant impact on student performance. Moreover, brightness level and correlated color temperature (CCT) are the two key luminous properties that have been examined in many relevant studies. And researchers were increasingly focusing on the diversity of luminous requirements under different learning context.
