Carboxylated cellulose nanocrystal cryogel monoliths: a multi-tool study of morphology and porosity of pure and magnetite nanoparticle-decorated CNC scaffolds

Tissue scaffolds are known to benefit from incorporation of nanoscale bio-additives like cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), which can affect porosity as an important tunable design parameter for bio-based scaffolds. In this paper, we probe how freeze-casting of carboxylated cellulose nanocrystals and CNC...
