Effects of pH on Nanofibrillation of TEMPO-Oxidized Paper Mulberry Bast Fibers

Effects of pH on Nanofibrillation of TEMPO-Oxidized Paper Mulberry Bast Fibers

TEMPO oxidation was conducted as a pretreatment to achieve efficient nanofibrillation of long paper mulberry bast fibers (PMBFs). The pH dependency of nanofibrillation efficiency and the characteristics of the resulting cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were investigated. As the pH increased, the negativ...
