Chemistry and Applications of Nanocrystalline Cellulose and its Derivatives: a Nanotechnology Perspective (2011, methodology): “Layer-by-layer orientated self-assembled multilayer films containing NCC and PAH were also prepared by Cranston and Gray using a strong magnetic film (Cranston and Gray, 2006a) and spin coating techniques (Cranston and Gray, 2006b, 2008).”
Nanocellulose properties and applications in colloids and interfaces (2014, unknown): “Reflected light and hence the color of dry films of CNC can also be varied by the thickness of the films, for example, as defined by constructing a multilayer system consisting of alternating deposition of CNC and a cationic polymer [30].”
State of the Art Manufacturing and Engineering of Nanocellulose: A Review of Available Data and Industrial Applications (2013, methodology): “This rather facile method of layer-by-layer assembly has been useful to produce multilayered films based on CNs for fabricating composite films with nanometer precision [144,197-200].”
