Piezoelectric Effect of Cellulose Nanocrystals Thin Films

TL;DR: In this article, ultrathin films of aligned cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were assembled on mica supports by using electric field-assisted shear, and the relationship between polarization gradients and strain mechanics of the obtained films was examined by monitoring their deflection with an atomic force microscope operated in contact mode.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellulose Nanofibrils: From Strong Materials to Bioactive Surfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the opportunities for cellulose nanofi brils (CNF) in the development of aerogels, composites, bioactive materials and inorganic/organic hybrid materials is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrathin film coatings of aligned cellulose nanocrystals from a convective-shear assembly system and their surface mechanical properties

TL;DR: In this article, a simple and inexpensive process of alignment of aligned cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) on solid supports was proposed, and the effect of concentration of CNC in aqueous suspensions, type of solid support, relative humidity and rates of withdrawal of the deposition plate were determined by using atomic force microscopy and ellipsometry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical deconstruction of lignocellulose cell walls and their enzymatic saccharification

TL;DR: In this paper, the extent of fibril-lation was evaluated by SEM imaging, water retention value (WRV) and cellulase adsorption, showing that fibrillation has only limited effect on cell wall breakdown.
