Cellulose nanocrystals: synthesis, functional properties, and applications
Cellulose nanocrystals are unique nanomaterials derived from the most abundant and almost inexhaustible natural polymer, cellulose. These nanomaterials have received significant interest due to their mechanical, optical, chemical, and rheological properties. Cellulose nanocrystals primarily obtained from naturally occurring cellulose fibers are biodegradable and renewable in nature and hence th...
متن کاملCellulose nanocrystals: chemistry, self-assembly, and applications.
Cellulose constitutes the most abundant renewable polymer resource available today. As a chemical raw material, it is generally well-known that it has been used in the form of fibers or derivatives for nearly 150 years for a wide spectrum of products and materials in daily life. What has not been known until relatively recently is that when cellulose fibers are subjected to acid hydrolysis, the...
متن کاملProduction of cellulose nanocrystals using hydrobromic acid and click reactions on their surface
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were prepared by acidic hydrolysis of cotton fibers (Whatman #1 filter paper). In our efforts to select conditions in which the hydrolysis media does not install labile protons on the cellulose crystals, a mineral acid other than sulfuric acid (H2SO4) was used. Furthermore, in our attempts to increase the yields of nanocrystals ultrasonic energy was applied during ...
متن کاملStructural Characterization and Modifications of Surface-oxidized Cellulose Nanofiber
Plant cellulose has a hierarchical structure with hemicelluloses and lignin in cell walls, forming natural composites at the nanometer/micrometer levels. The smallest elements next to cellulose molecules are cellulose microfibrils ~3 nm and several microns in width and length, respectively (Fig. 1). Each cellulose microfibril consists of 30-40 fully extended cellulose chains, and forms crystall...
متن کاملCellulose nanocrystals with tunable surface charge for nanomedicine.
Crystalline nanoparticles of cellulose exhibit attractive properties as nanoscale carriers for bioactive molecules in nanobiotechnology and nanomedicine. For applications in imaging and drug delivery, surface charge is one of the most important factors affecting the performance of nanocarriers. However, current methods of preparation offer little flexibility for controlling the surface charge o...
