• Facile preparation of mouldable polyvinyl alcohol-borax hydrogels reinforced by well-dispersed cellulose nanoparticles: physical, viscoelastic and mechanical properties (2013, background): “The weak mechanical performance mainly arises from their low resistance to crack propagation and a lack of an efficient energy dissipation mechanism in their polymer network (Yang et al. 2012).”
• Preparation and characterization of nanocellulose reinforced semi-interpenetrating polymer network of chitosan hydrogel (2017, background): “…as reinforcing agents because of their favorable properties, such as large surface area, high mechanical strength, low density, non-toxic nature, high aspect ratio, biocompatibility, and biodegradability (Ahmed 2015; Ching and Ng 2014; Goh et al. 2016; Park et al. 2015; Yang et al. 2012, 2013).”
• Nanocellulose, a tiny fiber with huge applications. (2016, background): “Covalent modifications, such as oxidation [69], esterification [70,71], etherification [72], polymer grafting [73,74], and silylation [75,76], as well as noncovalent binding [77], are proposed to introduce functional groups onto nanocellulose surfaces or as precursors for further modification [75].”
• Cellulose reinforced polymer composites and nanocomposites: a critical review (2013, background): “= Dispersed after sonication 24 h (72 h in the case of N,N-dimethyl formamide) at ca. 60 C. - = Did not disperse Yang et al. 2013) and acrylic acid (AA) (Yang et al. 2012) in water and diisocyanates and diols in dimethylformamide (DMF) (Pei et al. 2011).”
• Nanocellulose properties and applications in colloids and interfaces (2014, unknown): “Nanocellulose has been used also as reinforcement in the manufacture of composite hydrogels [68,192,193].”
