  1. 1. Cellulose Nanofibril Networks and Composites : Preparation, Structure and Properties

    Author : Marielle Henriksson; Lars Berglund; Alain Dufresne; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose nanocomposites; microfibrillated cellulose; nanofibrils; biofibers; mechanical properties; deformation mechanisms; molar mass; endoglucanase; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Träbaserade cellulosananofibriller är intressanta som förstärkande fas i polymera nanokompositer; detta främst på grund av den kristallina cellulosans höga styvhet och på grund av nanofibrillernas förmåga att bilda nätverk. Cellulosananofibriller kan användas i form av mikrokristallin cellulosa, MCC, som har lågt längd/diameter förhållande, eller i form av mikrofibrillerad cellulosa, MFC, med högt längd/diameter förhållande.

  3. 3. Chemical modification of cellulose-new possibilities of some classical routes

    Author : Merima Hasani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cellulose esters; Cellulose characterization; Cellulose ethers; Cationization; Cellulose nanocrystals; Crosslinking of cellulose;

    Abstract : Owning to its unique structure, along with the inexhaustible renewability, cellulose has been a subject of scientific and commercial interest for over 150 years. However, given attractive structural properties, such as stiffness, hydrophilicity, stereoregularity, potential for chemical modifications and ability to form superstructures, utilization of this biopolymer is far below its potential.

  4. 4. Nanostructured Cellulose Biocomposites : Effects from dispersion, network and interface

    Author : Mohd Farhan Ansari; Lars Berglund; Jean-Francois Gerard; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wood; cellulose nanofibrils; hygromechanical properties; network structure; thermoset; polymer matrix composites; natural fiber composites; pulp fiber; strain hardening; humidity; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : The major load bearing component in native wood, cellulose nanofibrils, are potential candidates for use as reinforcement in polymer matrices. This study is based on nanocellulose composites and attempts to prepare and characterize biocomposites with high nanocellulose content and investigate the influence of nanostructure on macroscopic properties.

  5. 5. Experimental study of alkalinisation of cellulose in industrial relevant conditions

    Author : Diana Carolina Reyes Forsberg; Ola Sundman; Bertil Eliasson; Ulf Germgård; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mercerisation; Alkalinisation; Cellulose I; Cellulose II; Alkali cellulose; Viscose; Cellulose ether; Carboxymethylcellulose; Sodium glycolate; Sodium diglycolate; Raman spectroscopy;

    Abstract : Mercerisation of cellulose pulp with a solution of NaOH is the first step of manufacturing cellulose-based value-added products, e.g. viscose fibres and cellulose ethers. During this process, cellulose transforms into a swollen crystalline structure, alkali cellulose (Na-Cell). READ MORE
