This article proposes a strategy to functionalize cellulose nanocrystals by means of plasma-
surface modification utilizing monomers of different nature: caprolactone, styrene and …

The growing concern for environmental problems has motivated the use of materials
obtained from bio-based resources such as cellulose nanocrystals which have a promising …

Tailoring the surface properties of nanocellulose to improve the compatibility of components
in polymer nanocomposites is of great interest. In this work, dispersions of nanocellulose in …

Dielectric barrier discharge plasma was used to functionalize cellulose nanocrystal (CNC)
films. The plasma was induced in different gas mixtures: argon/methane (Ar/CH 4) …

Interfacial properties of nanomaterials and polymer matrix in nanocomposites strongly affect
not only the dispersion of nanomaterials within the matrix, but also the mechanical …

In this work, we have applied, for the first time, solution plasma processing of cellulose-
containing material to produce cellulose nanocrystals (CNC). The CNC samples produced …

Dielectric barrier discharge plasma treatment was applied to modify cellulose nanofibre
(CNF) surfaces with and without ultrasonic irradiation. The plasma treatment improved the …

Submerged liquid plasma (SLP) is a new and promising method to modify powder materials.
Up to now, this technique has been mostly applied to carbonaceous materials, however …

Cellulose is a polymer widely available in nature, however its applications may be restrict
due to its hydrophilic character. The creation of hierarchical structures on the surface is one …

In the present study, without using water as a processing medium, a hydrophilic cotton
(cellulosic) textile was plasma treated in an indigenously developed atmospheric pressure …
