1. THE EFFECT OF CELLULOSE NANOCRYSTALS IN SUGARCANE BAGASSE PARTICLEBOARDS OF PITH AND FIBERS
ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to investigate sugarcane bagasse (SCB) particleboards, using two kinds of particles, from pith and fibers, reinforced with cellulose nanocrystals (NCC). The NCCs were dispersed in the adhesive urea formaldehyde (UF) using a sonificator in two proportions (0 and 1%). The NCCs and UF were applied in the SCB particles using

2. Cellulose Nanocrystals and Jute Fiber-reinforced Natural Rubber Composites: Cure Characteristics and Mechanical Properties
A comparative study was conducted for three natural rubber (NR) composites: one containing raw jute fibers, one containing bleached jute fibers, and one containing cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). The composites were prepared by adding each filler at 5 or 10 phr to the latex before chemical coagulation, and the composites were processed in a two-roll mixing mi

3. Study of Cellulose Nanocrystals and Zinc Nitrate Hexahydrate Addition in Chitosan Hydrogels
In this study, chitosan hydrogels were produced with 0, 2, 4 and 6 wt% of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) using hexahydrate zinc nitrate (Zn(NO3)2.6H2O) as a catalyst for chitosan crosslinking reaction. CNC´s size was estimated by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and surface charge by zeta potential. Hydrogels were characterized by rotational rheometer, swelling

4. Physiology and quality of 'Tahiti' acid lime coated with nanocellulose-based nanocomposites
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the physiological response and quality of the ‘Tahiti’ acid lime coated with carboxymethylcellulose (N-CMC), pectin (N-PEC) and starch (N-ST) nanocomposites based on cellulose nanocrystals (NC). Respiratory rate, ethylene production, loss of fresh weight, total chlorophyll and fruit firmness were evaluated

5. Nanocomposite Films Based on Flaxseed Gum and Cellulose Nanocrystals
Flaxseed gum (FG)-based films were developed with the addition of glycerol as a plasticizer and glutaraldehyde as a crosslinking agent. HCl was added to improve crosslinking and decrease the hydrophilicity of the matrix. Different cellulose nanocrystal (CN) amounts were used as reinforcements in the optimum FG formulation. The crosslinking process at pH 3.5

6. Cellulose nanomaterials: size and surface influence on the thermal and rheological behavior
Abstract Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and nanofibrils (CNF) were obtained by acid hydrolyzis and mechanical treatment, respectively, of cellulosic fibers from paper. Additionally, surface modification was performed for CNC by neutralization (NaOH) and oxidation (TEMPO). The thermal stability, surface properties and rheological behavior of these nanomaterial

7. Production of biodegradable starch nanocomposites using cellulose nanocrystals extracted from coconut fibers
Abstract Different polymeric matrices have been investigated for use in the development of biodegradable films. The incorporation of cellulose nanocrystals in such films has particularly attracted attention because of the potential for achieving improved properties of starch nanocomposites. In the present study, cellulose nanocrystals were extracted from coc

9. Nanocomposite of Poly(Lactic Acid)/Cellulose Nanocrystals: Effect of CNC Content on the Polymer Crystallization Kinetics
The barrier and mechanical properties of polymer matrices are affected by the polymer crystallization kinetics and the incorporation of nanoparticles can modify the nucleation density as well as the rate and mechanism of crystallization. In this study, a nanocomposite of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) containing cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) was prepared in order to

10. Cellulose Nanocrystals Assembled on the Fe3O4Surface as Precursor to Prepare Interfaced C/Fe3O4Composites for the Oxidation of Aqueous Sulfide
In this work, composites based on carbon (1, 10 and 20 wt.%) interfaced with Fe3O4 (magnetite) have been studied as catalysts for the oxidation of aqueous sulfide. The composites were prepared by assembling cellulose nanocrystals surrounding Fe3O4 followed by a controlled thermal decomposition at 400, 600 and 800 ºC. Mössbauer, X-ray diffractometry (XRD),

11. NANOCRISTAIS DE CELULOSE A PARTIR DE CELULOSE BACTERIANA
Bacterial cellulose produced from Gluconacetobacter xilinus was used to produce cellulose nanocrystals by sulfuric acid hydrolysis. Hydrolysis was performed with 64% sulfuric acid at 50 ºC with the hydrolysis time ranging between 5 and 90 min. The production of nanocrystals was observed to have size distributions that were dependent on hydrolysis times up t

12. HYDROLYTIC DEGRADATION BEHAVIOR OF PLLA NANOCOMPOSITES REINFORCED WITH MODIFIED CELLULOSE NANOCRYSTALS
Bionanocomposites derived from poly(L-Lactide) (PLLA) were reinforced with chemically modified cellulose nanocrystals (m-CNCs). The effects of these modified cellulose nanoparticles on the mechanical and hydrolytic degradation behavior of polylactide were studied. The m-CNCs were prepared by a method in which hydrolysis of cellulose chains is performed simul
