Process optimization for the production of cellulose nanocrystals from rice straw derived α-cellulose

Nanocrystalline cellulose has emerged out as a substantial nanomaterial in recent years due to its peculiar characteristics such as bio renewability and sustainability while having high mechanical strengths, optical transparency and much more. In this study, we prepared cellulose nanocrystals (CNC)...
