Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of the effect of drying and refining on the fiber–fiber shear bond strength measured using tensile fracture line analysis of sheets weakened by acid gas exposure
TL;DR: In this paper, a simple method for measuring the fiber-fiber shear bond strength by weakening the fibers independently of the bonds in a sheet of paper, using acid vapor, until all the fibers break across the fracture line.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent advancements, trends, fundamental challenges and opportunities in spray deposited cellulose nanofibril films for packaging applications.
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors provide a concise insight on the current trends and production methods of cellulose nanofibril (CNF) and discuss the methods for transforming CNF into films.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact of structural changes in heteroleptic bismuth phosphinates on their antibacterial activity in Bi-nanocellulose composites

TL;DR: Four mono-phosphinato bismuth complexes used to produce antibacterial nanocellulose composites displayed an increased level of toxicity towards mammalian cells (COS-7, human and murine fibroblasts), where it was shown the complexes disrupt cellular membranes leading to cytotoxicity.
Fiber trapping in low-consistency refining: New parameters to describe the refining process
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the number of impacts that a fiber undergoes during refining and the maximum force experienced during each impact, and derived an analytical model to calculate the relative changes in i and f as a function of consistency and speed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life cycle assessment of cellulose nanofibril films via spray deposition and vacuum filtration pathways for small scale production
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors analyze the cradle to gate life cycle assessment of a CNF film via four flexible production routes (two-spray deposition and two vacuum filtration processes) for small-scale production.
