Improvements of mechanical properties and specular gloss of polyurethane by modified nanocrystalline cellulose

In this study, the optical and mechanical properties of polyurethane were improved by modified nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC). The surface of NCC was modified by 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) and 3-methacryloxy-propyltrimethoxysilane (MPS) to overcome the lack of compatibility with poly...
