Mechanical Performance and Transparency of Nanocellulose Reinforced Polymer Nanocomposites

TL;DR: In this article, the aspect ratio of the cellulosic nanoparticles was found to be a determinant of the transparency of the films and the transparency decreased for a given nanofiller content when the diameter of the nanoparticle decreased.
