Investigating Physical and Mechanical Properties of Bionanocomposite Film Based on Flaxseed Mucilage and Cellulose Nanocrystal [PDF]
Introduction Manufacturers are trying to replace plastic materials in the food packaging industry with biodegradable and edible films. Biodegradable edible films and coatings are mainly made from carbohydrates, lipids and proteins and their mixtures. In

Painting Taylor vortices with cellulose nanocrystals: supercritical spectral dynamics [PDF]
We study the flow stability and spatio-temporal spectral dynamics of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) suspensions in a custom Taylor-Couette flow cell using the intrinsic shear induced birefringence and liquid crystalline properties of CNC suspensions for flow visualizations for the first time.

Crystallization of triethyl-citrate-plasticized poly(lactic acid) induced by chitin nanocrystals [PDF]
The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of the crystallization behavior of triethyl-citrate-plasticized poly(lactic acid) (PLA–TEC) in the presence of chitin nanocrystals (ChNCs).

Nanocellulose-stabilized Pickering emulsions : fabrication, stabilization, and food applications [PDF]
Pickering emulsions have been widely studied due to their good stability and potential applications. Nanocellulose including cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs), and bacterial cellulose nanofibrils (BCNFs) has emerged as sustainable stabilizers/emulsifiers in food-related Pickering emulsions due to their favorable properties ...
