Because of their wide abundance, their renewable and environmentally benign nature, and
their outstanding mechanical properties, a great deal of attention has been paid recently to …

Many current and potential uses of cellulosic materials depend critically on the character of
their surfaces. This review of the scientific literature considers both well-established and …

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNs) were fabricated from sulfuric acid hydrolysis of cottonseed
linter. The crystals were then utilized to prepare nitrile rubber (NBR)/CNs nanocomposites …

Cellulose microfibrils (CMFs) and cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were isolated from hardwood
pulp by 2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (TEMPO)-mediated oxidation, which …

Nanocomposite fibrous membranes have been fabricated by electrospinning cellulose
nanocrystal (CNC)-loaded poly (acrylic acid)(PAA) ethanol mixtures. Incorporating CNC in …

Cellulose is world's most abundant, renewable and recyclable polysaccharide on earth.
Cellulose is composed of both amorphous and crystalline regions. Cellulose nanocrystals …

Research on foamed nitrile rubber (NBR)/cellulose nanocrystals (CNs) nanocomposites is
rarely found in the literatures. In this paper, CNs suspension and NBR latex was mixed to …

The layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly process of creating highly structured thin films derived
from layers of polyelectrolytes and nanoparticles was adopted in this study to modify the …

We report the fabrication and characterization of a pHresponsive hydrogel with improved
mechanical and dielectric properties from cellulose nanocrystals. X-ray diffraction and SEM …
