Local Crystallinity in Twisted Cellulose Nanofibers [PDF]
Cellulose is crystallized by plants and other organisms into fibrous nanocrystals. The mechanical properties of these nanofibers and the formation of helical superstructures with energy dissipating and adaptive optical properties depend on the ordering of polysaccharide chains within these nanocrystals, which is typically measured in bulk average ...

Effects of Acid-Anhydride-Modified Cellulose Nanofiber on Poly(Lactic Acid) Composite Films
In this study, we investigated the effect of the addition of cellulose nanofiber (CNF) fillers on the performance of poly(lactic acid) (PLA). Modification of the hydroxyl group of cellulose to the acyl group by acid anhydrides changed the compatibility ...

Cellulose nanofiber thin-films as transparent and durable flexible substrates for electronic devices
This work reports for the first time an exceptionally high thermal stability of cellulosic nanofibers films at 190 °C after a 5 h exposure, a threshold required for their design and manufacturing in flexible electronic devices.

Cellulose Nanocomposites of Cellulose Nanofibers and Molecular Coils [PDF]
All-cellulose nanocomposites have been produced from cellulose nanofiber (CNF) suspensions and molecular coil solutions. Morphology and small-angle neutron scattering studies show the exfoliation and dispersion of CNFs in aqueous suspensions. Cellulose solutions in mixtures of ionic liquid and organic solvents were homogeneously mixed with CNF ...

Evaluation of the genotoxicity of cellulose nanofibers
Agricultural products and by products provide the primary materials for a variety of technological applications in diverse industrial sectors. Agro-industrial wastes, such as cotton and curaua fibers, are used to prepare nanofibers for use in thermoplastic films, where they are combined with polymeric matrices, and in biomedical applications such as ...
