Utilization of Areca Nut Leaf Sheath Fibers for the Extraction of Cellulose Whiskers
In this study, cellulose whiskers were extracted from an agricultural plant waste, Areca Nut Leaf Sheath, by employing a sulfuric acid hydrolysis method. The effect of hydrolysis time and temperature on the morphology, crystallinity, and degree of polymerization of the resultant cellulose particles...
