Comparative effect of mechanical beating and nanofibrillation of cellulose on paper properties made from bagasse and softwood pulps.
TL;DR: Mechanical beating and nanofibrillation were both found to be promising fiber structural modifications and had significant effects on paper density, tear strength, tensile strength and water drainage time.

Rheological characterization of high concentrated MFC gel from kenaf unbleached pulp
TL;DR: In this paper, microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) was isolated from unbleached kraft pulp derived from kenaf bast fiber and homogenized by passing through a microfluidizer.

Production of microfibrillated cellulose from unbleached kraft pulp of Kenaf and Scotch Pine and its effect on the properties of hardwood kraft: microfibrillated cellulose paper
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of using Kenaf bast fibre kraft pulps compared to Scotch Pine pulps for producing microfibrillated cellulose and its employment for improving mechanical and physical properties of handsheets made from unbleached kraft hardwood pulp.

Cellulose nanofibils as coating material and its effects on paper properties
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of cellulose nanofibril (CNF) coating on the physical, mechanical and barrier properties of paper were investigated, and the results revealed that the air resistance, surface strength, stiffness and tensile strength were also higher when a higher CNF concentration or greater number of layers was applied, while the Cobb index and roughness were lower.
