Abstract
The present invention provides novel nanoscale cellulose particles and also a process for their production. The cellulose-based particles obtained have volume-averaged particle sizes of less than 300 nm. These nanoparticles are produced from amorphous cellulose or by amorphization of cellulose, optional subsequent hydrolysis and by input of energy into a water-containing medium after or during dispersion.
