“…The stress was determined as loading force in Neuton (N) against the crosssectional area (width × thickness) of the sample and the strain. The strain was calculated as ∆L/L 0 where ∆L is the exerted extension from starting point and L 0 is the initial length [40,41] The modulus was then determined from the linear region of the 0.2% offset of the stress/strain curve. All measurements were performed for at least five samples under ambient conditions.…”

Bacterial cellulose (BC) has gained attention among researchers in materials science and bio-medicine due to its fascinating properties. However, BC’s fibre collapse phenomenon (i.e., its inability to reabsorb water after dehydration) is one of the drawbacks that limit its potential. To overcome this, a catalyst-free thermal crosslinking reaction was employed to modify BC using citric acid (CA) without compromising its biocompatibility. FTIR, XRD, SEM/EDX, TGA, and tensile analysis were carried out to evaluate the properties of the modified BC (MBC). The results confirm the fibre crosslinking phenomenon and the improvement of some properties that could be advantageous for various applications. The modified nanofibre displayed an improved crystallinity and thermal stability with increased water absorption/swelling and tensile modulus. The MBC reported here can be used for wound dressings and tissue scaffolding.

“…Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a kind of cellulose material synthesized by some microorganisms in a specific environment . BC shows advantages of higher porosity, better biocompatibility, and excellent mechanical properties and has been widely used in medical accessories, − cosmetics, − and acoustic materials. − In the application of energy harvesting, BC-based nanogenerators have also attracted the attention of researchers. Kim et al applied BC to triboelectric nanogenerators, and the output voltage of BC-Cu TENG with a 25 cm 2 area could reach 13 V at a test frequency of 1 Hz.…”

Bio-triboelectric nanogenerators have attracted much attention due to their applications in wearable and implantable electronic devices. Recently, cellulose-based nanogenerators have become a competing research topic, while the low output performance limits their application. In this work, an eco-friendly and recyclable bacterial cellulose-based triboelectric nanogenerator (BC-TENG) with enhanced output performance was represented. The surface potential of BC film was controlled by dip-coating hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) solution. After dip-coating, the maximum short-circuit current, open-circuit voltage, and transferred charge of 8.68 μA, 76.61 V, and 26.92 nC of the BC/HEC-TENG were achieved, respectively, much higher than those of pure BC-TENG. Additionally, the TENG demonstrated outstanding electrical output stability and durability, and it is effectively capable of serving as a self-powered sensor to detect human movement posture and power electronics. This work confirms the feasibility of manipulating the surface potential as an effective way of developing high-performance TENGs and offers insights for designing novel bio-tribomaterial in the advancement of eco-friendly TENGs.
