TL;DR: In this article, the structure and physical properties of the modified ramie fibers and composite films were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, ultraviolet-visible spectroscope, thermogravimetry, biodegradation tests and tensile tests.

TL;DR: The viscoelastic behavior of the cellulose solution with the advanced rheological expanded system (ARES) is investigated carefully, and the loss tangent (tan delta) at the gel point is measured according to the Winter and Chambon theory, showing the independence of tan delta on the frequency for the cellulOSE solution.

TL;DR: The weight-average molecular weight and intrinsic viscosity of the alpha-(1-->3)-D-glucan (L-FV-II) from Lentinus edodes in 0.5 and 1.0 M NaOH aqueous solution containing urea, and degradation of the glucan was obvious after storage for 15 months.

TL;DR: Lentinan, β-(1 --> 3)-D-glucan with (1 --> 6) branching, was isolated from Lentinus edodes as discussed by the authors, and it was found to have an average molecular weight Mw radius of gyration (1/2) and intrinsic viscosity [eta] of Lentina.

TL;DR: In this article, a chemically-physically double cross-linked and stretching orientation strategies were combined to construct a highly ordered cellulose nanofiber network and edge-hydroxylated boron nitride nanosheets (BNNS-OH) structure for fabricating robust cellulose/BNNs-OH composite film with superior thermal conductivity.
