Extraction of cellulose from soybean hulls for the development of polymer matrix composites with fishtail palm fibers

This study aims to extract and characterize cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from soybean hulls, and investigate their application as reinforcement in fishtail palm leaf stalk fiber (FPLSF) composites. CNCs were extracted through a multistep process involving alkalization, bleaching, acid hydrolysis an...
