Journal ArticleDOI

Cellulose nanocrystals: chemistry, self-assembly, and applications.

TL;DR: Dr. Youssef Habibi’s research interests include the sustainable production of materials from biomass, development of high performance nanocomposites from lignocellulosic materials, biomass conversion technologies, and the application of novel analytical tools in biomass research.
Journal Article

Cellulosic nanocomposites: a review

TL;DR: A review of recent work shows that considerable progress has been achieved in addressing these issues and that there is potential to use cellulosic nano-components in a wide range of high-tech applications as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Developing fibrillated cellulose as a sustainable technological material.

TL;DR: This work explores the use of fibrillated cellulose in the fabrication of materials ranging from composites and macrofibres, to thin films, porous membranes and gels, and discusses research directions for the practical exploitation of these structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanocellulose properties and applications in colloids and interfaces

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce recent advances in the development of cellulose nanomaterials and the construction of high order structures by applying some principles of colloid and interface science.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanofiber composites of polyvinyl alcohol and cellulose nanocrystals: manufacture and characterization.

TL;DR: The elastic modulus of the nanocomposite mats increased significantly as a consequence of the reinforcing effect of CNs via the percolation network held by hydrogen bonds, but this organization-driven crystallization was limited as observed by the reduction in the degree of crystallinity of the CN-loaded composite fibers.
