Cellulose – Polycarbonate Nanocomposites: A novel automotive window alternative

Nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) has great potential as a reinforcing agent in thermoplastics (such as polyesters, polyamides and polycarbonates) due to its high mechanical strength and aspect ratio – being compared with reinforcements like steel and carbon nanotubes. In order to maintain its streng...
