• Crystalline Nanocellulose — Preparation, Modification, and Properties (2015, background): “Typical aspect ratio for CNC ranges from 1 to 100 [15, 27] and for CNF 15–100 [27].”

• Nanocellulose in Thin Films, Coatings, and Plies for Packaging Applications: A Review (2017, background): “Though freeze drying is preferred as a means of minimizing aggregation of nanocellulose, the relatively pure cellulosic surfaces of CNC are highly prone to the development of mutual hydrogen bonding upon drying (Sanchez-Garcia and Lagaron 2010; Baez et al. 2014; Lindström and Aulin 2014).”
• Estimation of the surface sulfur content of cellulose nanocrystals prepared by sulfuric acid hydrolysis (2013, background): “…CNC dimensions have been taken as an indication of the inherent shape of particles with rectangular cross-sections (Elazzouzi-Hafraoui et al. 2008; Sebe et al. 2012; Urena-Benavides et al. 2011), but the data may also indicate the presence of particle multiplets involving nanocrystals with strong…”
