• Nanocellulose, a tiny fiber with huge applications. (2016, background): “Nanocellulose films and foams CNC films have been widely researched, mainly for their chiral nematic organization and optical properties (see Nanocellulose Photonics), and also for their gas barrier [38,46,47], water sorption [47], and mechanical properties.”
