Deswelling of microfibril bundles in drying wood studied by small-angle neutron scattering and molecular dynamics

, 2021
: Structural changes of cellulose microfibrils and microfibril bundles in unmodified spruce cell wall due to drying in air were investigated using time-resolved small-angle neutron scattering (SANS).

Hydration effects on spacing of primary-wall cellulose microfibrils: a small angle X-ray scattering study

, 2007
Celery collenchyma cell walls are typicalof primary plant cell walls in their composition butcontain unusually well-oriented cellulose microfibrilsthat are packed with more regularity than normal,permitting small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS)experiments ...

Growth stresses and cellulose structural parameters in tension and normal wood from three tropical rainforest angiosperm species

BioResources, 2007
Few studies have been conducted about relation between cellulose para-meters and biomechanical properties of wood in tropical angiosperms species. For this purpose, on 13 trees from 3 species of French Guyana tropical rainforest in a clear active process

Enhanced rates of enzymatic saccharification and catalytic synthesis of biofuel substrates in gelatinized cellulose generated by trifluoroacetic acid

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
Background The crystallinity of cellulose is a principal factor limiting the efficient hydrolysis of biomass to fermentable sugars or direct catalytic conversion to biofuel components.

A Comprehensive Monte Carlo-Simulated Dataset of WAXD Patterns of Wood Cellulose Microfibrils

Data
Wide-angle X-ray diffraction analysis is a powerful tool for investigating the structure and orientation of cellulose microfibrils in plant cell walls, but the complex relationship between diffraction patterns and underlying structural parameters remains

Clustering of spatially-resolved scattering and spectroscopy data for characterizing local variations in spruce wood

Next Materials
Wood is a hierarchical material composed of structural elements organized across multiple length scales, from the molecular arrangement of cellulose chains to the tissue-level organization of growth rings. However, the extent and type of local variations

Functional specialization of cellulose synthase isoforms in a moss shows parallels with seed plants

, 2017
The secondary cell walls of tracheary elements and fibers are rich in cellulose microfibrils that are helically oriented and laterally aggregated. Support cells within the leaf midribs of mosses deposit cellulose-rich secondary cell walls, but their ...
