Bio-inspired Cellulose Nanocomposites
… composites from isolated wood polymers namely cellulose and lignin, with a lamellar architecture. In the first phase of the study, adsorption of alkali lignin onto cationic surfaces was investigated using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D). Complete coverage of …

Mechanics and manufacturing of crosslinked cellulose nanocomposites
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are naturally derived and renewable nanostructures with exceptional mechanical and chemical properties. Consequently, CNCs provide a compelling platform to study the mechanical properties and manufacturing processes of nanocomposites, toward sustainable, …

Synthesis and characterisation of biobased polyamides and their cellulose nanocomposites
… of wholly biobased polyamides and their nanocomposites and the investigation of various factors that influence the properties. <br/><br/>A novel wholly biobased, self-healing, polyamide-based thermoplastic elastomer (PA36,36) was synthesised using a fatty dimer acid and a fatty dimer …

Analytical and Experimental Investigation of Interphase and Dispersion Effects on the Mechanical Stiffness of Cellulose Nanocomposites
… interphase properties on the elastic behavior of cellulose nanocomposites was investigated using a number of composite models, experimental data and a thorough literature review. Cellulose nanocomposites consisting of soy protein isolate (SPI) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) or polydopamine …

Design, Processing, and Characterization of Nanocomposites
… of polymers reinforced with bio-based cellulose nanoparticles at an industrial scale. The successful incorporation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) in polyamides, specifically polyamide 11 (PA 11) and polyamide 6 (PA 6), can result in a more sustainable material. However, unless …
