et al.

Abstract: This article investigates the necessity of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) addition for the amine functionalization of sulfated cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and its effect on nanocrystal reactivity with the herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The use of CNCs as a nanocarrier of active biomolecules has grown in the past decade. Previously, CNCs were produced by laboratory sulfuric acid hydrolysis protocols that imparted sulfate half-ester groups with hydrogen counterions. Because of this, researchers cit… Show more
