Extraction of cellulose nanocrystals from plant sources for application as reinforcing agent in polymers

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed overview of current knowledge on the surface modification of nanocellulose has been provided also to encourage the emergence of preparation of cellulose derivative nanocrystals with controlled morphology, structure and properties, so that enable positive development of biocompatible, renewable and sustainable reinforcing materials for polymer composites field.
Journal ArticleDOI

Review of Nanocellulose Polymer Composite Characteristics and Challenges

TL;DR: In this article, the potential factors deteriorating the aspect ratio and crystallinity of nanocellulose have been systematically reviewed, and some relevant suggestions/solutions were also widely exploited toward tailoring the generating problems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effectiveness of trimethylopropane trimethacrylate for the electron-beam-irradiation-induced cross-linking of polylactic acid

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of various loading levels of trimethylopropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA) on the properties of polylactic acid (PLA) cross-linked via electron-beam irradiation were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction Effect of Scomberomorus Guttatus -Derived Hydroxyapatite and Montmorillonite on the Characteristics of Polylactic Acid Blends for Biomedical Application

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of Mackerel-derived hydroxyapatite (MHAp) and native montmorillonite (MMT) on the mechanical-physico properties of the polylactic acid (PLA) blends was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of Microwave Activity on Starch-Based Nanocomposites Reinforced at Different Loading Fraction Organic-to-Inorganic Nanofillers

TL;DR: In this paper, the microwave-induced improvement in properties was more significant for sample containing higher loading fraction of cellulose nanofiller, which is due to cellulose has greater reactivity to microwave energy through activation of dipole-dipole interaction at the polar interface.
