Cellulose nanofibril-reinforced composites using aqueous dispersed ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer

Abstract: In order to explore the reinforcing capabilities of cellulose nanofibrils, composites containing high contents of cellulose nanofibrils were prepared through a combination of water-assisted mixing and compression moulding, the components being a cellulose nanofibril suspension and an aqueous dispersion of the polyolefin copolymer poly(ethylene-co-acrylic acid). The composite samples had dry cellulose nanofibril contents from 10 to 70 vol%. Computed tomography revealed well dispersed cellulose fibril/fibres in … Show more

“…The addition of reinforcement to EAA7 had a negligible effect on the crystallinity of the composite, see Fig. a, as has been reported for other EAA‐based nanocellulose composites []. Thus, the improvement in the mechanical properties can be associated with the presence of nanocellulose reinforcements rather than with changes in the crystallinity of the composites.…”
