The influence of draw ratio on morphology and thermal properties of MFCs based on PP and PET [PDF]
The main goal of this study is to investigate the influence of draw ratio on morphology and properties in microfibrillar composites (MFCs). In situ MFCs based on polypropylene (PP) and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) have been prepared at the weight ...

Solid-state NMR investigations of cellulose structure and interactions with matrix polysaccharides in plant primary cell walls [PDF]
Until recently, the 3D architecture of plant cell walls was poorly understood due to the lack of high-resolution techniques for characterizing the molecular structure, dynamics, and intermolecular interactions of the wall polysaccharides in these ...

Resonant soft X-ray scattering reveals cellulose microfibril spacing in plant primary cell walls
Cellulose microfibrils are crucial for many of the remarkable mechanical properties of primary cell walls. Nevertheless, many structural features of cellulose microfibril organization in cell walls are not yet fully described.

Microfibril orientation dominates the microelastic properties of human bone tissue at the lamellar length scale. [PDF]
The elastic properties of bone tissue determine the biomechanical behavior of bone at the organ level. It is now widely accepted that the nanoscale structure of bone plays an important role to determine the elastic properties at the tissue level.

Diffraction evidence for the structure of cellulose microfibrils in bamboo, a model for grass and cereal celluloses [PDF]
Background: Cellulose from grasses and cereals makes up much of the potential raw material for biofuel production. It is not clear if cellulose microfibrils from grasses and cereals differ in structure from those of other plants.
