Application


  • A kaolin/calcium incorporated shape memory and antimicrobial chitosan-dextran based cryogel as an efficient haemostatic dressing for uncontrolled hemorrhagic wounds: Explores the use of kaolin in creating an innovative cryogel that offers improved haemostatic performance, crucial for managing severe bleeding in clinical settings (Andrabi and Kumar, 2023).

  • Properties of hydric and biodegradability of cassava starch-based bioplastics reinforced with thermally modified kaolin: Examines the enhancement of bioplastic properties through the incorporation of kaolin, aiming to improve water resistance and biodegradability, which is significant for environmental sustainability (Meite et al., 2021).
