Deformation mechanisms in ionic liquid spun cellulose fibers

The molecular deformation and crystal orientation of a range of next generation regenerated cellulose fibers, produced from an ionic liquid solvent spinning system, are correlated with macroscopic fiber properties. Fibers are drawn at the spinning stage to increase both molecular and crystal orientation in order to achieve a high tensile strength and Young’s modulus for potential use in enginee...

Thermal analysis of cellulose esters prepared from different molecular weight fractions of high α-cellulose pulp

High α-cellulose has been dissolved in two non-degrading solvent systems like dimethyl sulfoxide/paraformaldehyde (DMSO/PF) and N,N-dimethyl acetamide/lithium chloride (DMAc/LiCl) and then fractionated to different molecular weight fractions by regeneration technique. Esters of the different molecular weight fractions of cellulose have been prepared having substitution chain length of C2-C5 usi...

Properties of Lignocellulosic Composites Containing Regenerated Cellulose Fibers

The aim of the paper was to examine the application of regenerated cellulose fibers as a reinforcement material in particleboard production. Single-layer, 10 mm thick panels, with the density of 800 kg/m3 were produced with addition of regenerated cellulose fibers in the range of 0 do 15% by mass during panels’ production. The mechanical and physical parameters of the produced panels were teste...

High Efficiency Conversion of Regenerated Cellulose Hydrogel Directly to Functionalized Cellulose Nanoparticles.

This article provides a novel and efficient method of "self-assembly/modification/dispersion" for the preparation of functionalized cellulose nanoparticles (CNPs) based on regenerated cellulose hydrogel (RCH). The process of the preparation of CNPs is simplified greatly, which contributes to broadening the utilization of CNPs. Under the given conditions, cellulose chains self-assemble into nano...
