Extraction and Characterization of Nanocellulose from Saw DustBy Uttam Kumar, Payal Sharma, Kanchan L. Singh, Ashok Kumar
Abstract: In this work, nanocellulose was extracted and fibrillated from wooden saw dust of Malaysian wood. The fibrillation of cellulose nanoparticles was done by two major steps such as chemical pre-treatment and acid hydrolysis. Firstly, the saw dust was pre-treated with alkali, and then de-waxing of saw dust was done. Then cellulose was extracted. Finally, it was chemically washed etc. The extracted chemically purified cellulose was further treated with acid hydrolysis …
