Beeswax-modified biopolymer aerogel: A sustainable approach to hydrophobic oil absorbing materials

This study presents for the first time a sustainable approach to hydrophobic modification of nanocellulose/chitosan bioaerogels using beeswax emulsion. The incorporation of beeswax into the aerogel matrix resulted in increasing the density from 35.1 to 298 mg/cm3, while the porosity decreased from 9...
