Cellulose nanocrystals: mind the microgap in iridescent Cellulose Nanocrystal Films

2017
Solid 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 ...

Polyhydroxybutyrate-Based Nanocomposites with Cellulose Nanocrystals and Bacterial Cellulose

Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2016
Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) films nanoreinforced with hydrolyzed cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and bacterial cellulose (BC) were prepared by solvent casting. The influence of different cellulose nanoparticles content (2, 4 and 6 wt% of CNC and 2 wt% of BC) on the PHB properties was studied. CNC nanocomposites presented good dispersion of the nanocrystals,
