Solvation of a Cellulose Microfibril in Imidazolium Acetate Ionic Liquids: Effect of a Cosolvent

, 2016
The solvation and the onset of dissolution of a cellulose Iβ microcrystal in ionic liquid media are studied by molecular simulation. Ionic liquids can dissolve large amounts of cellulose, which can later be regenerated from solution, but their high ...

Evolution of the Cellulose Microfibril through Gamma-Valerolactone-Assisted Co-Solvent and Enzymatic Hydrolysis

Biomass recalcitrance during deconstruction remains a key bottleneck to affordable biomass processing technologies. A clear connection between the cell wall structure and biomass deconstruction is necessary to understand how lignocellulosic material is ...

Relationships between microfibril angle, modulus of elasticity and compressive strength in Eucalyptus wood

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2012
Many traits are known to be important in determining the value of Eucalyptus wood as sawn timber. The commercial importance of the microfibril angle (MFA) for wood quality is well established for a range of softwoods, but is less clear for hardwood ...

Effect of microfibril twisting on theoretical powder diffraction patterns of cellulose iβ

, 2018
Previous studies of calculated diffraction patterns for cellulose crystallites suggest that distortions that arise once models have been subjected to molecular dynamics (MD) simulation are the result of both microfibril twisting and changes in unit cell ...

STRUCTURAL ORGANISATION OF THE WOOD POLYMERS IN THE WOOD FIBRE STRUCTURE

BioResources, 2011
The organization of the major polymers in the wood fiber has a large impact on the properties of the structure. Numerous studies have been devoted to the cellulose microfibril arrangement, providing the longitudinal strength of the fiber, while less is ...

COBRA, an Arabidopsis Extracellular Glycosyl-Phosphatidyl Inositol-Anchored Protein, Specifically Controls Highly Anisotropic Expansion through its Involvement in Cellulose Microfibril Orientation

, 2015
The orientation of cell expansion is a process at the heart of plant morphogenesis. Cellulose microfibrils are the primary anisotropic material in the cell wall and thus are likely to be the main determinant of the orientation of cell expansion.

Structure, function and assembly of soybean primary cell wall cellulose synthases

eLife
Plant cell walls contain a meshwork of cellulose fibers embedded into a matrix of other carbohydrate and non-carbohydrate-based biopolymers. This composite material exhibits extraordinary properties, from stretchable and pliable cell boundaries to solid ...
