Development of powdering method for cellulose nanofibers assisted by zinc oxide for compounding reinforced natural rubber composite

We have developed a unique powdering method for cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) that allows zinc oxide to function as a dusting powder for noodles at the nanoscale. A CNF slurry and zinc oxide as a rubber compounding ingredient were mixed and dried. The resultant CNF–zinc oxide mixture could be pulveriz...
