Biobased Nanocomposites from Layer-by-Layer Assembly of Cellulose Nanowhiskers with Chitosan

Abstract: A new biodegradable nanocomposite was obtained from layer-by-layer (LBL) technique using highly deacetylated chitosan and eucalyptus wood cellulose nanowhiskers (CNWs). Hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions between the negatively charged sulfate groups on the whisker surface and the ammonium groups of chitosan were the driving forces for the growth of the multilayered films. The film growth was followed by UV-vis spectroscopy through the maximum value of the absorption band at 194 nm and showed the dep… Show more

“…However, these were studies on an end product and did not shed light on the manner in which these films were growing with each additional deposition step to yield the resulting film. The growth of the CHI/HA base can be observed by UV-Vis spectrophotometry by monitoring the absorbance of glucosamine and N-acetylglucosamine which absorb between 190-220 nm [17,46,47].…”

“…Indeed, there are many examples of linearly growing films involving synthetic and natural PE including poly(sodium styrene sulfonate) (PSS)/poly(allyamine hydrochloride)(PAH) [16] and chitosan (CHI)/cellulose nanowhiskers [17] films. In these films, each bilayer interacts only with bilayers that directly neighbor it (above or below) with very little inter-penetration and as a result, a distinct layered morphology is seen within the film [15,18].…”

“…Para a maioria dos nanocristais obtidos de fibras vegetais o comprimento é de cerca de 150-300 nm e diâmetro de 4-10 nm. 56,57 As nanofibras de celulose possuem inúmeras vantagens em relação a outros materiais nanoestruturados, como facilidade no processo de obtenção, baixo custo da matéria-prima, características diversificadas em função do substrato natural de origem e obtenção a partir de fontes renováveis. 56,57 O outro agente estabilizante pesquisado foi a MCM-41, uma das peneiras moleculares mais estudadas.…”
