Tailoring Chemical, Physical, and Morphological Properties of Sugarcane Bagasse Cellulose Nanocrystals via Phosphorylation Method

In this work, three different concentrations of phosphoric acid (H3PO4) were used (i.e. 5 M, 8 M, and 11 M) to isolate cellulose nanocrystals (hereafter labeled as 5-PCNC, 8-PCNC and 11-PCNC, respectively) from sugarcane bagasse. The PCNC was analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fo...
