Xyloglucan Is Not Essential for the Formation and Integrity of the Cellulose Network in the Primary Cell Wall Regenerated from Arabidopsis Protoplasts

Plants, 2020
The notion that xyloglucans (XG) play a pivotal role in tethering cellulose microfibrils in the primary cell wall of plants can be traced back to the first molecular model of the cell wall proposed in 1973, which was reinforced in the 1990s by the ...

Polyethylene–Cellulose Composites From Cellulose Xanthate Solutions

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
An approach for fabricating cellulose/LDPE composites through cellulose dissolution, LDPE dispersion, and subsequent hot‐pressing. ABSTRACT This study reports a processing route for fabricating cellulose/LDPE composites involving the dispersion of polyethylene powder in a cellulose solution, followed by regeneration to form a continuous cellulose ...

Determination of the Combined Effect of Chemical Modification and Compression of Agatis Wood on the Dimensional Stability, Termite Resistance, and Morphological Structure

BioResources, 2014
Agatis wood (Agathis lorantifolia Salisb.) was impregnated with a combination of styrene and methyl methacrylate and compressed to a strain of 50% to improve dimensional stability and termite resistance.

Multiscale structure of cellulose microfibrils in regenerated cellulose fibers

Carbohydrate Polymers
Cellulose in solution can be assembled into textile fibers by wet-spinning (Viscose etc.) or dry-jet wet spinning (Lyocell, Ioncell etc.), which leads to significant differences in the mechanical properties of fibers. We use scanning X-ray microdiffraction (SXM) to reveal regenerated fibers having a "skin-core" morphology.

Genetic parameters for lignin, extractives and decay in Eucalyptus globulus [PDF]

, 2006
Eucalyptus globulus is grown in temperate regions of the world for pulp production. The chemical composition of its wood including the proportion of cellulose, lignin and extractives, make it highly suited to this purpose.

Bioinspired Ultrastrong and Ion‐Selective Gel Electrolytes by Interfacial Coacervation for High‐Performance Lithium‐Metal Batteries

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
An ultrastrong, hierarchically nanoporous gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) was fabricated via poly(ionic liquid)‐induced interfacial coacervation of cellulose nanofibrils. Its cascade ion‐conduction network enables dual‐mode Li⁺ transport via nanoconfinement and interstitial hopping. The GPE enables stable cycling of high mass loading battery (LiFePO₄, 16

Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC): pullulan bionanocomposite films [PDF]

Cellulose, 2014
The aim of this work was to develop and characterize microfibrillated cellulose (MFC)/pullulan bionanocomposites. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy suggested that the affinity between the two polymers resulted in new hydrogen bonding of the nanocomposite materials compared to pristine pullulan.

Wood and fibre properties of fertilized Norway spruce [PDF]

, 2003
Very intensive forest management is relatively unexplored in Sweden, and while there is interest in pursuing e.g. the use of fertilizers on selected areas, there is concern about the quality of the wood when growth rate increases.

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...
