“…, using metal oxides), the homogeneous dispersion of crystalline fillers in the amorphous polymer matrix is known to improve the compatibility between the two components and mechanical properties of the MMM. 30–32 As evidenced by the SEM analysis (Fig. 2), the MOF–polymer compatibility promoted the agglomeration-free and uniform distribution of crystalline MOF particles throughout the bulk of the P1 matrix, resulting in a significant increase in MMM performance before failure.…”

“…In-situ polymerization enables for direct integration of well-dispersed nanoparticles in bulk polymer composites, whereas film casting procedures are only suited for the fabrication of thin films, and melt processing methods frequently involve poor particle dispersion [191]. In addition, in-situ polymerization can be utilized to make nanocomposites, as polymers are not suitable for melt processing due to their low temperature stability, nor for solution casting due to their insolubility in any solvent.…”

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Nanocellulose has emerged in recent years as one of the most notable green materials available due to its numerous appealing factors, including its non-toxic nature, biodegradability, high aspect ratio, superior mechanical capabilities, remarkable optical properties, anisotropic shape, high mechanical strength, excellent biocompatibility and tailorable surface chemistry. It is proving to be a promising material in a range of applications pertinent to the material engineering to biomedical applications. In this review, recent advances in the preparation, modification, and emerging application of nanocellulose, especially cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), are described and discussed based on the analysis of the latest investigations. This review presents an overview of general concepts in nanocellulose-based nanocomposites for sustainable applications. Beginning with a brief introduction of cellulose, nanocellulose sources, structural characteristics and the extraction process for those new to the area, we go on to more in-depth content. Following that, the research on techniques used to modify the surface properties of nanocellulose by functionalizing surface hydroxyl groups to impart desirable hydrophilic–hydrophobic balance, as well as their characteristics and functionalization strategies, were explained. The usage of nanocellulose in nanocomposites in versatile fields, as well as novel and foreseen markets of nanocellulose products, are also discussed. Finally, the difficulties, challenges and prospects of materials based on nanocellulose are then discussed in the last section for readers searching for future high-end eco-friendly functional materials.

“…If we consider the possible pathways (Fig.12) of reduction and the coupling towards azo-formation, we see that the nonreactive group would be the amino functionality. If the reduction towards the amine proceeds faster than the dimerization of nitroso groups, coupling of nitrosobenzene (15) and phenylhydroxylamine (16) or nitrosobenzene and aniline (17), then the preparation of short oligomers may be expected.…”

“…The latter has been exhibiting superior properties to all other carbon-based conjugated materials and is a promising candidate for optoelectronics 12 . Other interesting applications of various polymers for advanced materials include the preparation of membranes 13 , modern adhesives and sealants 14 , polymer optical fibres 15 for data communication (POFs), nanocomposites and hybrid materials 16 . An exciting class of functional materials which offer the possibility of external control of their function is stimuli-responsive polymeric systems 17 .…”
