Preparation, Characterization and Application of Nanocellulose
Novel spherical nano-scaled cellulose particles have been prepared by high-pressure homogenizing of four different types of pre-treated cellulose samples with MICROFLUIDIZER™ processor (MF) in aqueous media. One possibility of pre-treatment is a decrystallization step realized [...]
Binder applications of cellulose nanofibrils: new developments
Tajvidi M., Leng W., Hunt J.F., Diop C., Bousfield D., Gardner D., Amini E., Bilodeau M., Gramlich W., Laboratory of Renewable Nanomaterials, University of Maine, US
A key path towards the commercialization of cellulose nanomaterials is to target large-volume applications in commodity products where a successful market introduction could potentially mobilize orchestrated efforts to revitalize the forest products industry. At the [...]
Moisture Uptake Characterization in Nanocellulose Using Microwave Cavity
Emiroglu C.D., Natarajan B., Gillman J.W., Liddle J.A., Obrzut J., National Institute of Standards and Technology, US
Nanocellulose has been a continuously emerging area of interest over the recent years due to inexpensive, abundant, and renewable nature of the material source. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are regarded to be highly useful candidates as [...]
Evaluation of the genotoxic potential of different types of nanofibrillated celluloses
Catalán J., Lindberg H.K., Aimonen K.J., Wolff H., Wedin I., Nuopponen M., Savolainen K.M., Norppa H., Finnish Institute of Occupational Health, FI
Nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC) is among the most promising innovations in the forest industry. Due to its unique properties, NFC has a wide variety of possible applica-tions. As NFC consists of thin and long fibres with [...]
