Effect of alkali treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of individual bamboo fibers (2016, background): “This finding is consistent with the phenomenon reported by Das and Chakraborty (2006), Eronen et al. (2009), and Liu and Hu (2008).”
Bamboo fiber and its reinforced composites: structure and properties (2012, background): “The above mentioned BF or nanocrystals did not transform into another cellulose crystalline structure after chemical treatment; however, treatment with up to 15 % alkali solution induced conversion of cellulose I to cellulose II (Liu and Hu 2008).”
Comparative properties of cellulose nano-crystals from native and mercerized cotton fibers (2012, background): “Fibers and films having the cellulose II structure also have excellent properties, further extending the applications of cellulose in the chemical industry (Liu and Hu 2008).”
