Kink formation in nanocellulose: Comparing TEMPO oxidation and carboxymethylation
Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and ApplicationsThis study investigated the kink formation mechanisms in nanocellulose induced by two typical carboxylation methods. TEMPO-mediated oxidation significantly made the nanocellulose chains more water-attracting and easier to dissolve, especially in the less
