Abstract

Anti-UV films and composites play a critical role in protecting materials from ultraviolet-induced degradation, which can weaken polymers, reduce product lifespan, and compromise performance in sectors such as food packaging, outdoor coatings, and biomedical devices. The growing emphasis on sustainability and the need for environmentally friendly protective materials have further accelerated research on UV-shielding technologies that incorporate biopolymers, multifunctional additives, and renewable resources. This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of global research on anti-UV films and composites over the period 2014–2024. Data were retrieved from the Scopus database and analyzed using Bibliometrix (R package) and VOSviewer were employed to analyze publication patterns, map keyword networks, and visualize thematic evolution, as these tools enable robust quantitative and structural mapping of large bibliographic datasets. Three dominant thematic clusters were identified: (i) nanoparticle-based UV shielding using inorganic fillers such as ZnO and TiO₂, (ii) multifunctional films integrating UV protection with antibacterial and antioxidant properties, and (iii) biopolymer-based matrices emphasizing mechanical durability and environmental sustainability. These clusters highlight the convergence of performance, sustainability, and multifunctionality as key drivers shaping current research directions. Despite significant progress, the analysis reveals limited attention to scalability, industrial compatibility, and long-term performance evaluation. The findings underscore the need for future research to incorporate pilot-scale processing, life-cycle assessments, and interdisciplinary collaboration to bridge the gap between laboratory formulations and commercial implementation. Overall, this bibliometric study provides a consolidated understanding of the evolution and research landscape of anti-UV films and composites.

Abstract

Natural fiber-reinforced polymer composites often experience mechanical performance limitations due to weak interfacial bonds between hydrophilic fibers and hydrophobic matrices. This study experimentally examined the effect of alkali treatment and modification using Uncaria gambir extract (UGE) on the mechanical properties and interface morphology of polyester composites reinforced with areca nut husk fiber (ANHF). Four composite configurations were prepared with a constant fiber weight fraction of 40 wt.% after alkali treatment using 6% NaOH for 24 hours, while the remaining 2 wt.% UGE was selectively applied as a fiber surface treatment, matrix additive, or a combination of both. Tensile and flexural properties were evaluated in accordance with ASTM standards, while interface morphology was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that alkali-treated composites without UGE addition had the highest tensile strength, which was attributed to increased fiber surface roughness and mechanical interlocking mechanisms. Conversely, fiber surface modification using UGE significantly increased flexural strength, indicating better stress distribution under flexural loading due to increased interface continuity. However, the addition of UGE to the matrix caused a decrease in tensile strength, which was thought to be related to a reduction in matrix stiffness. SEM observations confirm the presence of distinct interface morphology differences according to the treatment applied. These findings indicate that UGE serves primarily as a bio-based interfacial modifier, enhancing flexural performance, while its effectiveness is strongly governed by the mechanical loading mode.

Abstract

This paper presents the design, implementation, and experimental validation of a low-cost PID-based attitude control system for a single-tilt-rotor tricopter. The proposed platform employs a Y-shaped frame configuration with a servo-driven tail-tilt mechanism and is implemented using a low-cost ATmega328P microcontroller and GY-88A IMU sensor. A PID controller was used for inner-loop attitude stabilization of roll, pitch, and yaw motions due to its low computational complexity and suitability for resource-constrained embedded systems. The PID gains were obtained through manual tuning using a tricopter test-bed rig under disturbance-free conditions and experimentally evaluated under both static and dynamic wind disturbances. Under a static wind disturbance of 7.2 m/s, the roll and pitch mean absolute error (MAE) values reached 0.977° and 4.826°, respectively, while dynamic disturbance testing produced MAE values of 0.823° for roll and 2.094° for pitch. Outdoor flight tests resulted in MAE values of 1.133° for roll and 1.831° for pitch. The experimental results demonstrated that the proposed low-cost tricopter platform can maintain stable attitude control under the evaluated disturbance conditions and outdoor flight scenarios. The study highlights the feasibility of implementing reliable tricopter stabilization using computationally lightweight PID control on inexpensive embedded hardware.

Abstract

Understanding the trade-offs between thermal and mechanical properties is crucial for optimizing the performance of cellulose films from bacterial cellulose powders (BCP). This study leverages ultrasonication as an eco-friendly method to enhance these properties in BCP-based films while investigating the consequences of varying ultrasonication durations. BCP was sonicated at 250 W for 15 and 30 minutes. Results demonstrated that increasing ultrasonication duration significantly improves tensile strength, toughness, and transparency. The 30-minute sonication yielded the most robust and transparent films, with the highest mechanical strength and toughness. Conversely, while a shorter sonication of 15 minutes slightly improved the thermal stability of the films, increasing Tmax from 317°C for non-sonicated films to 351°C, a longer duration of 30 minutes reduced Tmax to 323°C. This illustrates a clear trade-off between enhancing mechanical properties and maintaining thermal stability. The findings provide insights into a simple yet effective approach for producing environmentally friendly, non-wood-based BC films, emphasizing the need to balance both thermal and mechanical enhancements through controlled ultrasonication.

Abstract

This study evaluates Palm Oil Methyl Ester (POME) as a potential base fluid for transformer insulation, enhanced with Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticles. The research aims to assess the dielectric strength and physicochemical properties of TiO₂-POME nanofluids at two concentrations (0.05 g/L and 0.10 g/L) and compare them with pure POME. The breakdown voltage (BDV) test was conducted before and after thermal ageing to determine how the nanofluid's dielectric strength changes over time. Results showed that both nanofluid samples had higher BDV values than pure POME, with the 0.05 g/L sample increasing from 19.27 kV to 25.85 kV and the 0.10 g/L sample showing the most significant improvement, with a BDV of 33.17 kV. Ageing caused a slight decrease in BDV, but the values remained higher than those of the base fluid (15.40 kV for aged pure POME), with the 0.05 g/L and 0.10 g/L samples maintaining averages of 20.68 kV and 24.44 kV, respectively, suggesting improved insulation performance. The kinematic viscosity of pure POME was 8.85 cSt, while the 0.05 g/L and 0.10 g/L TiO₂ nanofluids showed values of 9.09 cSt and 9.52 cSt, respectively, with all the samples falling within the acceptable range of 3-12 cSt specified by IEC 60296 for transformer insulating oils. The addition of TiO₂ slightly increased viscosity, more noticeably at 0.10 g/L. FTIR analysis indicated that the chemical structure of the fluid remained stable after ageing and nanoparticle addition.
