Preparation of cellulose nanoparticle from cinnamon

Preparation and Properties of Electrospun Poly (Vinyl Pyrrolidone)/Cellulose Nanocrystal/Silver Nanoparticle Composite Fibers

Poly (vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP)/cellulose nanocrystal (CNC)/silver nanoparticle composite fibers were prepared via electrospinning using N,N'-dimethylformamide (DMF) as a solvent. Rheology, morphology, thermal properties, mechanical properties, and antimicrobial activity of nanocomposites were characterized as a function of material composition. The PVP/CNC/Ag electrospun suspensions exhibited h...

Preparation and Characterization of Cellulose Nanocrystals from Bamboo Pulp

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) can be obtained from bamboo pulp by hydrolysis with sulfuric acid. Firstly, the authors conducted a series of experiments under different conditions, and concluded that the optimal parameters were as follows: sulfuric acid concentration 60%, temperature 45 °C, the time is 90 minutes and the solid-liquid ratio is 1:8. Then, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fo...

Multifunctional bacterial cellulose and nanoparticle-embedded composites

Cellulose, a linear polymer of glucopyranose sugar molecules, is synthesized both by plants and bacteria. The plant-produced cellulose is present along with other compounds such as hemicelluloses and lignin, and has been used historically for a wide variety of applications ranging from paper-making to cosmetics. The cellulose produced by bacteria, on the other hand, is pure and difficult to mak...

Production of Activated Carbon from Cellulose Wastes

Cellulose wastes of a wood and paper factory were used to produce activated carbon. Several chemical agents under various conditions were used for production of activated carbon and hence their adsorption properties have been evaluated. In addition the effect of process parameters such as raw material, chemical agent concentration, impregnation ratio, carbonization temperature, carbonization ti...
