Cellulose is known to interact well with water, but is insoluble in it. Many polysaccharides
such as cellulose are known to have significant hydrogen bond networks joining the …

Nanocelluloses (NC) are nature-based sustainable biomaterials, which not only possess
cellulosic properties but also have the important hallmarks of nanomaterials, such as large …

Heavy metal pollution generated by urban and industrial activities has become a major
global concern due to its high toxicity, minimal biodegradability, and persistence in the food …

Various concentrations of cellulose nanocrystal grafted poly acrylic acid (CNC-g-PAA)
doped MnO 2 nanorods (NRs) were synthesized through a hydrothermal process. This work …

Nanocellulose is a lightweight material with strong mechanical strength, inexpensive
production costs and safe handling compared to synthetic nanoparticles. Thanks to the high …

The prolonged survival of microbes on surfaces in high-traffic/high-contact environments
drives the need for a more consistent and passive form of surface sterilization to minimize …

Over the past few years, nanocellulose and its derivatives have drawn attention as
promising bio-based materials for water treatment applications due to their high surface …

Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) and ZnO/CuO nanostructure were successfully synthesized by
acid hydrolysis and sol-chemical methods, respectively. For the first time, CNC was used as …

The aim of the present investigation was the combination of ZnO nanostructures with nano-
cellulose (NC) for the efficient degradation of tetracycline (TC) antibiotic under ultrasonic …

The skyrocketing progress in industrialization is increasing the concentration of heavy
metals in water resources. Most of the heavy metals are highly toxic and even a trace …
