Abstract

Interest in cellulose-based nanomaterials has continued to increase dramatically in the past few years, especially with advances in the production routes of nanocellulose-such as cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and bacterial nanocellulose (BNC)-that tailor their performances [...].
