A study on optical and thermal properties of natural polymer-based hemicellulose compounds

Films of husks of Plantango ovate, Cydonia oblonga, Mimosa pudica, Cochlospermum religiosum were prepared, delignified without protein and cellulose content, and their optical properties were evaluated. UV-Vis, FTIR TGA analysis revealed that these natural materials have strong potential in fiber optics, contact lenses and human transplantation infrastructure applications, where there is need of efficient transparency, high thermal stability and...
