Determining the Crystallinity Index of Cellulose in Chemically and Mechanically Extracted Banana Fiber for the Synthesis of Nanocellulose

Determining the Crystallinity Index of Cellulose in Chemically and Mechanically Extracted Banana Fiber for the Synthesis of Nanocellulose

The aims of this study were to identify the best method of extracting cellulose from lignocellulosic fibers based on crystallinity index in the preparation of nanocellulose. Cellulose fibers were extracted by chemical and mechanical methods from Embul variety (AAB) of banana. The chemically extracte...
