“…Steam explosion was one of the most effective methods to disrupt lignocellulosic structure in an environmentally friendly way. Researches have also shown that steam explosion could generate cavities or micropores inside the fiber matrix, loosen the cell wall microstructure, and improve cholesterol and ion adsorption capacities ( Ouyang et al, 2023a ; Vitrone et al, 2022 ; Wang et al, 2021 ). Therefore, in this research, steam explosion technology will be introduced to modify RBIDF and improve functional properties.…”
