Improved dispersibility of nanofibrillated cellulose via simple microwave-assisted esterification
AbstractNanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) has been successfully esterified by lactic acid (LA) in the presence of HCl catalyst in an aqueous medium using a simple microwave heating process. The degree of substitution (DS) of ester groups on modified NFC (mNFC) was quantified through a systematic chara...
