Nanocellulose: Beyond the ordinary [PDF]
Nanocellulose is a collective term for nanoassemblies of macromolecular cellulose in fibrous and crystalline forms, mainly originating from woody bioresources. Fascinating physicochemical properties of nanocellulose, such as high strength, light weight, transparency, and low thermal expansion, have allowed development of nanocellulose-based functional ...

Nanocellulosics in Transient Technology
Envisage a world where discarded electrical/electronic devices and single-use consumables can dematerialize and lapse into the environment after the end-of-useful life without constituting health and environmental burdens. As available resources are consumed and human activities build up wastes, there is an urgency for the consolidation of efforts and ...

Engineering Chiroptical Interactions through Integrating Plasmonic Arrays with Cholesteric Nanocellulose. [PDF]
In this study, we demonstrate how the combination of plant‐based cellulose and gold nanoparticle lines produces robust, tunable chiral light control in composite films. The resulting plasmonic cellulose composite exhibits a strong plasmonic CD at the surface lattice resonance, along with an inversion of chiroptical response upon reversing the ...
