In this study, pulped cellulose fibres were pre-treated with aqueous morpholine prior to mechanical disruption in the production of cellulose nanofibrils (CNF). The properties of the morpholine pre-treated CNF (MCNF) were closely compared with CNF ob...

In this study, the aspect ratios of carboxymethylated and TEMPO-oxidised cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) were estimated by gel point analysis using a sedimentation approach. The flocculation and subsequent sedimentation of the CNF aqueous suspensions, wh... Read More about The Use of Sedimentation for the Estimation of Aspect Ratios of Charged Cellulose Nanofibrils.
