Bionanocomposites based on pea starch and cellulose nanowhiskers hydrolyzed from pea hull fibre: Effect of hydrolysis time
401
TL;DR: In this article, a series of pea hull fiber-derived nanowhisker (PHFNW-t) dispersions was prepared by hydrolyzing PEA hull fibres for different times (t) with sulfuric acid, and then blended with pea starch (PS) to fabricate bionanocomposite films.

Roswanira Abdul Wahab,Jacob Adikwu Gowon,Nursyafiqah Elias +2 more
- 31 Aug 2019
TL;DR: In this paper, an extensive literature survey related to areas of renewable sources of biopolymer in both the agricultural and industrial sectors were performed, where information on their industrial value and uses, the fundamentals of their extraction alongside the benefits and major drawbacks of their utilization, are also highlighted.
Innovating Environmentally Sustainable Materials Platforms by Harnessing Coastal Marine Tunicates
Shiyao Hong,Astrid Schnetzer,Nathalie Lavoine,Lucian A. Lucia,David B. Eggleston +4 more
TL;DR: Researchers explore the potential of coastal marine tunicates as a sustainable source of cellulose nanocrystals, a valuable bio-based material, while mitigating the ecological impact of invasive tunicates on coastal ecosystems and aquaculture.
Extraction of Cellulose Nanowhiskers from Flax Fibres and Their Reinforcing Effect on Poly(Furfuryl) Alcohol
Asanda Mtibe,Yanga Mandlevu,Linda Z. Linganiso,Rajesh D. Anandjiwala +3 more
TL;DR: This study extracts cellulose nanowhiskers from flax fibres using mechanical and chemical treatments, and investigates their reinforcing effect on poly(furfuryl) alcohol composites, demonstrating improved mechanical and thermomechanical properties with enhanced interaction between CNWs and PFA.
The Application Status of Nanoscale Cellulose-Based Hydrogels in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Biomedicine
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper provided an overview of the synthesis of different types of nanocellulose, including cellulose nanocrystals, cellulose nano-fibers, and bacterial nano-celluloses, and described their unique features.

Review of Recent Research into Cellulosic Whiskers, Their Properties and Their Application in Nanocomposite Field
TL;DR: There are numerous examples where animals or plants synthesize extracellular high-performance skeletal biocomposites consisting of a matrix reinforced by fibrous biopolymers, which occur as whisker-like microfibrils that are biosynthesized and deposited in a continuous fashion.

TL;DR: Mild enzymatic hydrolysis has been introduced and combined with mechanical shearing and a high-pressure homogenization, leading to a controlled fibrillation down to nanoscale and a network of long and highly entangled cellulose I elements.

Isolation and characterization of nanofibers from agricultural residues: wheat straw and soy hulls.
Ayse Alemdar,Mohini Sain +1 more
TL;DR: After mechanical treatments of cryocrushing, disintegration and defibrillation, the thermal properties of the nanofibers were studied by the TGA technique and found to increase dramatically and is reasonably promising for the use of these nanofiber types in reinforced-polymer manufacturing.

Effect of reaction conditions on the properties and behavior of wood cellulose nanocrystal suspensions.
TL;DR: Increased acid-to-pulp ratio reduced the dimensions of the nanocrystals thus produced and the critical concentration was increased and the biphasic range became narrower; a suspension made from a bleached kraft eucalyptus pulp gave very similar properties to the softwood nanocrystal suspension when prepared under similar hydrolysis conditions.

Optimization of the isolation of nanocrystals from microcrystalline cellulose by acid hydrolysis
TL;DR: In this article, a rapid, high-yield process was proposed to obtain an aqueous stable colloid suspension of cellulose nanocrystals/whiskers. But the results of the process were limited by the concentration of MCC and sulfuric acid, the hydrolysis time and temperature, and ultrasonic treatment time.
