Mussel-inspired polydopamine-modified cellulose nanocrystal fillers for the preparation of reinforced and UV-shielding poly (lactic acid) films

To improve the inherent properties of polylactic acid (PLA), cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have been picked up as the nanofillers. However, the hydrophilic CNCs show poor compatibility with hydrophobic PLA, which usually fails to improve the performance of PLA. Inspired by mussel, polydopamine (PDA)...
