In this work the feasibility of extracting cellulose from cotton, sisal and flax fibers, corn stover and rice husk by means of usual chemical procedures such as acid hydrolysis, chlorination, alkaline extraction, and ...

Cellulose nanowhiskers were prepared by sulfuric acid hydrolysis from coconut husk fibers which had previously been submitted to a delignification process. The effects of preparation conditions on the thermal and morphological ...

In the present work, the electrical properties of a natural rubber-based nanocomposite (NR) filled with cellulose nanowhiskers (CNW) coated with polyaniline (PANI) were studied. We developed a statistic model that simulates ...

In this study, the authors evaluate the potential of the reinforcement of cellulose nanowhiskers coated with polyaniline-DBSA (CNW-PANiDB) in a natural rubber latex nanocomposite. For this purpose, cellulose nanowhiskers ...

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/cellulose nanowhisker (CNW) nanocomposite hydrogels to be used for wound dressing were obtained by freezing–thawing technique and characterized by means of morphological, physical, thermal, mechanical, ...

This study aimed to characterize cellulose nanowhiskers extracted from discarded cotton fibers. The nanocellulose was characterized by dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy ...
