Effects of hydrolysis conditions on the morphology, crystallinity, and thermal stability of cellulose nanocrystals extracted from kenaf bast fibers (2012, background): “The topdown destructuring of cellulosic fibers can be conducted by a mechanical (Pääkkö et al. 2007) or chemical means (Elanthikkal et al. 2010; Li et al. 2009).”
Extraction of Cellulose Nanocrystals from Phormium tenax Fibres (2013, background): “These features are characteristic of b-glycosidic linkages between the anhydroglucose units in cellulose [38].”
Isolation and Characterization of Cellulose Nanocrystals from Agave angustifolia Fibre (2013, background): “The increase in the intensity of this band showed an increase in crystallinity of the samples (Elanthikkal et al. 2010).”
