Probing cellulose structures with vibrational spectroscopy (2019, methodology): “Constructing the initial structural model of crystalline cellulose for DFT-D2 calculations, the atomic coordinates of the structural model determined from X-ray diffraction (XRD) can be used (Nishiyama et al. 2002, 2003).”
Cellulose Chemistry and Properties: Fibers, Nanocelluloses and Advanced Materials (2016, methodology): “Oligosaccharides with a defined DP can be used as a simple model for cellulose in structural investigations [8, 9].”
Extraction of Cellulose Nanocrystals from Phormium tenax Fibres (2013, background): “into the amorphous regions of cellulose promoting the hydrolytic cleavage of glycosidic bonds and finally releasing the individual crystallites [35].”
Cellulose: Structure and Properties (2015, background): “Together, the hydrogen bonding, weak C–H–O bonds, and hydrophobic interactions are responsible for the assembly of cellulose in layers, as elucidated by synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments [20].”
