Cellulose nanocrystals: mind the microgap in iridescent Cellulose Nanocrystal Films
2017Solid films prepared from cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) present remarkable optical properties: iridescence,[1] selective reflection of left circularly polarized (LCP) light, and transmission of right circularly polarized (RCP) light.[2] The same phenomenon has been observed in certain insect cuticles, for example in the Plusiotis batesi as well as in ...

Functionalization of cellulose nanocrystals for advanced applications
Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 2017Replacing the widespread use of petroleum-derived non-biodegradable materials with green and sustainable materials is a pressing challenge that is gaining increasing attention by the scientific community. One such system is cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) derived from acid hydrolysis of cellulosic materials, such as plants, tunicates and agriculture ...

Freeze–Thaw Gelation of Cellulose Nanocrystals
ACS Macro Letters, 2019Gels are attractive for applications in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and 3D printing. Here, physical colloidal gels were prepared by freeze-thaw (FT) cycling of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions. The aggregation of CNCs was driven by the physical confinement of CNCs between growing ice crystal domains. FT cycling was employed to form larger

Rheology of cellulose nanocrystal and nanofibril suspensions
Carbohydrate PolymersNanocellulose is a sustainable nanomaterial and a versatile green platform that has attracted increasing attention. Although the wide applications of its aqueous suspensions are closely related to rheology, comprehensive studies of their rheological behavior, especially the yielding behavior, are still limited.
