Review of Hydrogels and Aerogels Containing Nanocellulose
Abstract
Naturally derived cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) are emerging nanomaterials that display high strength, high surface area, and tunable surface chemistry, allowing for controlled interactions with polymers, nanoparticles, small molecules, and biological materials. Industrial production of nanocelluloses is increasing rapidly with several companies already producing on the tons-per-day scale, intensifying the quest …
