Gluconic Acid: Properties, Microbial Production and Applications in Food and Agriculture: Critical Review
Abstract: Gluconic acid is one of the most essential natural acids and is moderately obtained from glucose by unpretentious oxidation response process. The response is simplified through glucose dehydrogenase bacteria such as (Gluconobacter) and enzyme glucose oxidase (fungi). The production of gluconic acid by microbes is the desired procedure. The typical broadly applied fermentation technique is summarized by using fungi (Aspergillus niger). Derivatives for gluconic acid; the main ones like sodium …

pH-Responsive Smart Polymer Nanocomposites for Anti-Corrosive Coatings
Abstract: Metallic corrosion under adverse marine and industrial conditions imposes gigantic financial burdens and risks worldwide. Conventional waterproofing waterborne epoxy has passive barrier protection, but is also inherently microporous, lacking intrinsic repair ability against mechanical damage and thus rapidly decays. This is a critical gap that this work tries to bridge by designing a new pH-responsive hybrid polymer nanocomposite by using polyethyleneimine-tannic acid-cerium functionalized boron nitrate nanosheets with chitosan-capped mesoporous silica …
