Ice template method assists in obtaining carbonized cellulose/boron nitride aerogel with 3D spatial network structure to enhance the thermal conductivity and flame retardancy of epoxy-based composites

Enhanced Photocatalytic Degradation with Sustainable CaO Nanorods Doped with Ce and Cellulose Nanocrystals: In Silico Molecular Docking Studies

“…As a result, cellulose possesses a high degree of crystallinity. 36 The hydroxyl group of cellulose has a strong electron providing effect and a low electron loss tendency because of the lone electron pair of oxygen atoms. 37 , 38 In this perspective, CNCs may be the most viable alternative for fabricating cellulosic materials for new uses.…”

A highly orientational architecture formed by covalently bonded graphene to achieve high through-plane thermal conductivity of polymer composites

“…[3][4][5][6] Polymer materials present comprehensive properties, such as great mechanical strength, high chemical stability, and relatively light weight, but show extremely low thermal conductivities of 0.1-0.5 W m −1 K −1 due to the amorphous arrangement of molecular chains, which seriously restricts their cooling efficiency. 7 Introducing highly thermally conductive fillers into polymer matrices is an efficient way to address this issue, [8][9][10][11][12][13] in which graphene has attracted a great deal of attention due to its ultrahigh intrinsic thermal conductivity of up to ∼5000 W m −1 K −1 along the basal plane. 14 Consequently, a series of graphene-enhanced polymer composites have been developed via direct solution or melt blending processes.…”

Enhancement of intrinsic thermal conductivity of liquid crystalline epoxy through the strategy of interlocked polymer networks

“…Such an intrinsic thermally conductive material is superior to the traditional thermally conductive composite from a usage point of view. The latter is filled with high concentrations or hybrids of thermally conductive fillers (like BN, 15 Al 2 O 3 , 16 graphene, 17 modified cellulose, 18 and metal nanoparticles 19 ), so that its processability and mechanical properties will inevitably be reduced. 8,20,21 It is worth noting, however, that LCE is far from perfect.…”
