Alkali Hydrolysis of Sulfated Cellulose Nanocrystals: Optimization of Reaction Conditions and Tailored Surface Charge

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are a biorenewable resource, which may be chemically modified to impart specific properties. Modified CNCs have found use in imaging applications, as rheology modifiers, polymer reinforcements, barrier and/or optical films, and nanocomposites. Nanoparticle dimensions of...
