Fully upgrade lignocellulose to three nanomaterials by combinational pretreatment: Refining straw waste to pesticide nanocarrier

Lignocellulosic Biomass in Nanopesticides: A Path toward Sustainable Agriculture

“…Zhang et al., indicate that lignocellulosic materials can facilitated the adhesion of pesticides in the leaves surface due cationization of nanoparticles (ζ potential of 24.6–33.3 mV) and the interaction with negatively plant surface charged. Shen et al found similar results for the same pesticide with rice-straw biomass to produce different lignocellulosic nanofibers (ζ potential of 26–33 mV). Kacsó et al .…”

Deep eutectic solvents as an emerging green platform for the synthesis of functional materials

“…Green chemistry and sustainable development principles are not adhered to because of the underutilization of resources other than the intended materials. Three value-added products, namely, hemicellulose-derived activated carbon (ANC), lignin nanospheres (LNS), and lignin cellulose nanofibers (LCNF) containing pesticide nanocarriers, were obtained from the treatment of rice using a mixture of hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) and deep eutectic solvents (DESs) designed by Shen et al 56 (Fig. 5a).…”

Advances in the Design of Functional Cellulose Based Nanopesticide Delivery Systems

“…48 Cellulosic materials can be prepared as thin films for adsorbing or wrapping pesticides on their surfaces, thus prolonging residual time and improving effectiveness on plant surfaces. 49 Shen et al 50 utilized the hydrogen bond interaction between lignin fragments and cellulose fibers to effectively cross-link LNCF, resulting in the formation of highly entangled networks with distinctive lignin properties. The functionalized LCNF exhibited robust adhesion and exceptional antiultraviolet capability, thereby facilitating the deposition and retention of pesticides on crop surfaces (Figure 2B).…”
