Abstract
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from the plant(MxG) and a matrix material are present in a composite composition. Impressive yields of MxG-CNCs are obtained through a combination of processing steps including base hydrolysis, bleaching and acid hydrolysis. MxG-CNCs are produced having high aspect ratios, are biorenewable and can be used for a wide range of applications such as nanofillers in composites.
