Widespread concerns over the impact of human activity on the environment have resulted in
a desire to replace artificial functional materials with naturally derived alternatives. As such …

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are commercially available materials derived from cellulose,
the most abundant biopolymer on our planet. Due largely to their high strength, high surface …

Confined evaporation-induced self-assembly (C-EISA) is a powerful technique to guide
disordered nanoparticles into long-range organized structures. Herein, we investigate the C …

Proteinaceous amyloid fibrils are one of the stiffest biopolymers due to their extensive cross-
β-sheet quaternary structure, whereas cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) exhibit interesting …

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are rod-like nanoparticles whose chiral self-assembly into
photonic films has been promoted as a sustainable source of colouration. Upon drying, an …

Amyloids derived from low-cost food proteins and nanocellulose from wood pulp are
renewable and biodegradable materials with a wide range of potential applications …
