Synthesis of New Hydrogels Based on Xanthan and Cellulose Allomorphs
The large availability of cellulose in nature and the low cost of cellulose derivatives make the cellulosebased hydrogels particularly attractive. New hydrogels were obtained by chemical cross-linking of different cellulose allomorphs (cellulose I, cellulose II and cellulose III) and xanthan with epichlorohydrin. The preparation conditions of the transparent cellulose hydrogels were established...
متن کاملHigh performance cellulose nanocomposites: comparing the reinforcing ability of bacterial cellulose and nanofibrillated cellulose.
This work investigates the surface and bulk properties of nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and bacterial cellulose (BC), as well as their reinforcing ability in polymer nanocomposites. BC possesses higher critical surface tension of 57 mN m(-1) compared to NFC (41 mN m(-1)). The thermal degradation temperature in both nitrogen and air atmosphere of BC was also found to be higher than that of NFC...
متن کاملDifferential fermentation of cellulose allomorphs by ruminal cellulolytic bacteria.
In addition to its usual native crystalline form (cellulose I), cellulose can exist in a variety of alternative crystalline forms (allomorphs) which differ in their unit cell dimensions, chain packing schemes, and hydrogen bonding relationships. We prepared, by various chemical treatments, four different alternative allomorphs, along with an amorphous (noncrystalline) cellulose which retained i...
متن کاملDeformation of cellulose allomorphs studied by molecular dynamics
Cellulose-based materials draw their good mechanical properties from the cellulose crystal. Improved understanding of crystal properties could lead to a wider range of applications for cellulose-based materials, Cellulose crystals show high axial Youngs modulus. Cellulose can attain several allomorphic forms which show unique structural arrangements in terms of both intra-molecular and intermol...
متن کاملAll-Cellulose Composite Fibers Obtained by Electrospinning Dispersions of Cellulose Acetate and Cellulose Nanocrystals
All-cellulose composite fibers were produced by electrospinning dispersions containing cellulose acetate (CA) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). Precursor polymer matrices were obtained after dispersion of CA with different degrees of substitution in a binary mixture of organic solvents. The obtained fibers of CA loaded with CNCs had typical widths in the nanoand micro-scale and presented a gla...
