This review presents recent advances regarding biomass-based nanomaterials, focusing on
their surface interactions. Plant biomass-based nanoparticles, like nanocellulose and lignin …

This article recounts, from my perspective of four decades in this field, evolving paradigms of
primary cell wall structure and the mechanism of surface enlargement of growing cell walls …

Plant cells build nanofibrillar walls that are central to plant growth, morphogenesis and
mechanics. Starting from simple sugars, three groups of polysaccharides, namely, cellulose …

In the effort toward sustainable advanced functional materials, nanocelluloses have
attracted extensive recent attention. Nanocelluloses range from rod‐like highly crystalline …

Widespread concerns over the impact of human activity on the environment have resulted in
a desire to replace artificial functional materials with naturally derived alternatives. As such …

Plant cell walls are dynamic structures that are synthesized by plants to provide durable
coverings for the delicate cells they encase. They are made of polysaccharides, proteins …

Cellulose is an essential plant cell wall component and represents the most abundant
biopolymer on Earth. Supramolecular plant cellulose synthase complexes organize multiple …

The plant cell wall is a dynamic network of several biopolymers and structural proteins
including cellulose, pectin, hemicellulose and lignin. Cellulose is one of the main load …

Abstract Background Secondary cell walls (SCWs) form the architecture of terrestrial plant
biomass. They reinforce tracheary elements and strengthen fibres to permit upright growth …
