Recycling waste paper can be considered as a means to displace the use of natural cellulose fibers applied in building materials, because it is composed mostly of cellulose. The water absorption and special surface area of cellulose fibers are the key properties for their use in building materials. The objective of this article was to study the production of recycled cellulose fibers from waste paper using ultrasonic wave processing. The physical and chemical properties of recycled cellulose fibers, such as water absorption, specific surface area and pore characteristics, etc., were investigated with various testing methods. The results indicated that the ultrasonic cavitation effect was feasible for the preparation of the secondary fibers. When the ultrasonic treatment time lasted for 10 min, the water absorptions of both newsprint fibers and kraft fibers increased significantly and reached the highest values of 12.5 g/g and 11.2 g/g, respectively, which were nearly two times than that of fibers without ultrasonic treatment. With a pretreatment of 20 min, the average length and fineness of recycled cellulose fibers decreased by 4% and 25%, respectively, and the length‐diameter ratio of the recycled cellulose fibers was 1.28 times than that of the untreated fibers, which greatly increased the special surface area of the recycled cellulose fibers. This work also determined that NaOH was useful to improve the physical properties of the recycled cellulose fibers. Because the recycled cellulose fibers after processing, fulfilled several technical indexes, they can be considered as a filling material for used in cement‐based materials. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

This article focuses on controlling the morphology of regenerated cellulose aerogel (RCA) and its application as a template for the preparation of functional cellulose nanoparticles (FCNPs). RCA is prepared by lyophilizing cellulose hydrogel which is fabricated through a sol–gel method in sodium hydroxide (NaOH)/urea aqueous solution. The morphology of RCA is adjusted by varying the gelation temperature and time. With the gelation temperature and time increasing, lamellar RCA transforms into strings of cellulose nanoparticles. Subsequently, RCA with the morphology of "strings of nanoparticles" is modified through the bulk condensation of l -lactic acid and RCA. Eventually, the prepared functionalized RCA (FRCA) is dispersed in an organic solvent to obtain purified FCNPs. The results demonstrate that single FCNP can be obtained by dispersing FRCA in dimethyl sulfoxide. Moreover, the prepared FCNPs have uniform size, good thermal-stability, and increasing hydrophobicity, which are ideal candidates for polymer composites in terms of fillers. 相似文献

A transparent, bendable, high oxygen barrier cellulose-based film was prepared, which has far better oxygen barrier properties than conventional polyethylene, polypropylene and cellophane materials. A series of regenerated cellulose films (RCs) were prepared from filter paper lacking oxygen barrier properties under different cellulose concentrations and gelation times. It was shown that the cellulose concentration and gel time had a greater effect on the oxygen barrier properties of RCs. When the cellulose concentration was 4 wt% and the gel time was 3 h, the RCs obtained the lowest oxygen permeability coefficient (OPC) down to 2.21 × 10−17 cm3 cm cm−2 s−1 Pa−1. The films have a tensile strength of 109.5 MPa, an elongation at break of 27.3% and a light transmission rate of 89%. In further, molecular dynamics simulations showed that when the filter paper was converted to RCs, the increase in hydrogen bonding and the decrease in free volume between cellulose chains caused a decrease in the diffusion coefficient of oxygen. As a novel biobased high oxygen barrier material, the film has broad application prospect in packaging and chemical industry. 相似文献

Samples of starch?gelatin polymer reinforced with 5% of recycled cellulose were prepared using an extrusion‐compression molding process. Nanoindentation and atomic force acoustic microscopy (AFAM) techniques were used to study the effect of reinforcement at nanoscale level. Nanoindentation tests show a 163% increase in hardness and 123% of elastic modulus enhancement after recycled cellulose inclusion. AFAM shows that distribution of recycled cellulose into the polymer matrix is rather homogeneous at nanoscale which improves load transfer. Thermogravimetric analysis indicates an increase in thermal stability of the cellulose reinforced polymer matrix samples. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2015 , 132, 41787. 相似文献

Effective dissolution of cellulosic macromolecules is the first predominant step to prepare functional bio‐based materials with desirable properties. In this study, we developed an improved dissolution process using a freeze‐drying pretreatment to promote the dissolution of cellulose. Rheological measurements of cellulose solutions and physicochemical characterization of regenerated cellulose films (scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis) were performed. Cellulose solution prepared from 5% microcrystalline cellulose (w:v) in the solvent exhibits a Newtonian fluid character while cellulose solutions at higher concentrations show a pseudo‐plastic fluid behavior. Results from physicochemical characterization indicate that a freeze‐drying pretreatment step of cellulose leads to a complete dissolution at 5% concentration while only part of cellulose is dissolved at 10% and 15% concentrations. The results obtained indicated that the use of a freeze‐drying pretreatment step under mild conditions lead to a complete dissolution of cellulose at 5% concentration. The cellulose films prepared from 5% concentration exhibited desirable properties such as good optical transparency, crystallinity, and thermal stability. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

This investigation focuses on the preparation of bio‐based composites from recycled poly (ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and sisal fibers (3 cm, 15 wt %), via thermopressing process. Plasticizers derived from renewable raw materials are used, namely, glycerol, tributyl citrate (TBC) and castor oil (CO), to decrease the melting point of the recycled PET (Tm ∼ 265°C), which is sufficiently high to initiate the thermal decomposition of the lignocellulosic fiber. All used materials are characterized by thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry, and the composites are also characterized via dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. The storage modulus (30°C) and the tan δ peak values of CT [PET/sisal/TBC] indicate that TBC also acts as a compatibilizing agent at the interface fiber/PET, as well as a plasticizer. To compare different processing methods, rheometry/thermopressing and compression molding are used to prepare the recycled PET/sisal/glycerol/CO composites. These two different methods of processing show no significant influence on the thermal properties of these composites. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 40386. 相似文献

In this work, regenerated cellulose (RC) tubes with the porous structure were successfully fabricated for constructing the non-invasive detection platform of vascular microenvironment. Polyethylene oxide (PEO) as a porogen was applied to induce porous structure of cellulose tubes. Tensile and burst pressure tests were carried out to evaluate the effects of PEO molecular weight and amount on the mechanical properties of cellulose tubes. The results showed that tensile strength of RC tubes was increased with increasing PEO molecular weight. The compliance of cellulose tubes decreased with increasing the PEO content. When 120 kDa PEO was applied, the average tensile strength of RC tubes could reach 1.27 MPa. The maximum burst pressure and compliance of RC tubes could reach 488.25 ± 35 mmHg and 7.50 ± 3.7%/100 mmHg, respectively. Human umbilical vein endothelia cells (HUVECs) exhibited obvious proliferation on cellulose tubes, and the collagen coating further improve the biocompatibility. The incorporated collagen further improved adhesion of the cells and growth on cellulose tubes. This work provided a kind of cellulose-based tube material with potential application for the construction of the vitro vascular microenvironment. 相似文献

Bio-based materials with multifunctional performance are getting immense attention nowadays for their environment friendly and renewable character. Inspired by toughening effect of graphene nanosheets and borate chemistry, a simple in-situ borate crosslinking in water and freeze-drying method was employed to fabricate a fire retarded bio-based aerogel. The structure of the material was evaluated and analysis by SEM, XRD, FTIR, Raman and XPS. Importantly, the bio-based aerogel has improved strength and adsorption properties due to unique structure. The compressive strength of rGO(reduced graphene oxide) + CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) aerogel could reach 128 ± 2.1 kPa which is five times that of neat CMC aerogel. The bio-based aerogel can load more than 2500 times of self-weight. The adsorption capacity for organic solvents and oil of rGO+CMC aerogel is also greatly improved by a little rGO (1%) introducing due to its unique porous structure and hydrophobic nature of rGO. Additionally, rGO+CMC aerogel is also found fire resistant with relatively low thermal conductivity due to the borate and GO introduction. 相似文献

Fuel cells are being developed to overcome the global energy crisis. The objective of this research is to prepare an environmental‐friendly and cheap material as the polymer electrolyte membrane. Coconut water was fermented by Acetobacter xylinum to produce nata‐de‐coco and the phosphorylation was carried out by microwave‐assisted reaction. The resulting membranes are characterized by ion exchange capacity, contact angle, proton conductivity, swelling index, methanol permeability, mechanical properties measurement and morphological analysis. At the optimum phosphorylation condition using 17.35 mmol of phosphoric acid, membrane showed a proton conductivity of 1.2 × 10?2 S/cm and a methanol permeability of 2.3 × 10?6 cm2/s. The tensile strength of the produced membranes increases significantly and the arrangement of the cellulosic fibers are kept well‐aligned. It is concluded that a green and sustainable natural resources can be used for preparing electrolyte membrane. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci., 2013 相似文献

This research evaluates the effects of filler content and silanization on thermal, morphological and mechanical properties of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBH)-based composites. Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) was obtained by a mechanical treatment of high-pressure homogenization, starting from oat hull fiber, a byproduct of the agri-food sector. MFC reinforced PHBH composites were prepared by melt compounding. SEM and FT-IR analysis showed a good dispersion of the filler in the polymeric matrix, denoting the effectiveness of the surface silanization process. The thermal stability of PHBH composites remains substantially unchanged, and the glass transition temperature marginally increases with the increase of the filler content. Furthermore, silanized MFC shows slightly reinforcing mechanical effects on PHBH composites, such as the increase of 10% of the Young modulus with an increase of the maximum tensile stress as well. This finding has an economical interest since the results showed that MFC, deriving from a byproduct, can be successfully used as filler, decreasing the cost of the bio-based compound leaving substantially unaltered its mechanical and thermal properties. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ionic liquid (IL)‐water mixtures were applied in cellulose pretreatment experiment and the pretreated cellulose was used in subsequent phenol liquefaction process as a new application method. Cellulose recovery rate and the average molecular weight (Mw) of pretreated cellulose were investigated to understand the influence of these mixtures on cellulose structure. X‐ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, gel permeation chromatograph, and scanning electron microscope were used to clarify the changes of pretreated cellulose. The liquefied residues from untreated cellulose and pretreated cellulose were considered as significant index to determine the effect of IL‐water mixtures on cellulose. Moreover, liquefied residues were initially characterized by the variation of the average Mw. It was suggested that the lower Mw of cellulose obtained in IL‐water mixtures, and the crystalline structure was disrupted. So, some cracks were found on the cellulose surface obviously. The liquefied residues result suggested that the pretreated cellulose obtained the lower residues at the same time or the same amount of residues by using the less time. The behavior of cellulose liquefaction efficiency using IL‐water mixture pretreatment was discussed. The lower Mw of cellulose was the major factor, which accelerates the cellulose phenol liquefaction process efficiency. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 40255. 相似文献

In this study, ethylene‐vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) nanocomposites were prepared by melt compounding both plant cellulose nanowhiskers (CNW) and bacterial cellulose nanowhiskers (BCNW) as nanofillers. Electrospinning and a “dissolution precipitation” method were used as strategies for the incorporation of CNW in EVOH before melt compounding with the aim of enhancing the degree of dispersion of the nanocrystals when compared with direct melt‐mixing of the freeze‐dried product with the polymer. As revealed by morphological characterization, the proposed preincorporation methods led to a significant improvement in the dispersion of the nanofiller in the final nanocomposite films. Furthermore, it was possible to incorporate concentrations as high as 4 wt % BCNW without causing significant agglomeration of the nanofiller, whereas increasing the CNW concentration up to 3 wt % induced agglomeration. Finally, DSC studies indicated that the crystalline content was significantly reduced when the incorporation method led to a poor dispersion of the nanocrystals, whereas high‐nanofiller dispersion resulted in thermal properties similar to those of the neat EVOH. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Contamination of water resources by toxic heavy metals has significant impacts on environmental and human health. Their removal from aqueous media is essential to ensure water sustainability and to provide safe freshwater availability to population. Electrospun chitosan (CS) nonwoven mats are efficient at removing heavy metals from aqueous media. However, they suffer from low permeability and low-mechanical strength. They are also unable to remove contaminants in a nonselective way. A bilayer sorbent media made of a porous phosphorylated cellulose substrate covered by electrospun CS nanofibers was developed to overcome those weaknesses. The hydrophilic composite shows good water permeability and mechanical strength with appropriate thermal and chemical characteristics. Adsorption tests with Cd(II) indicate that pseudo-second order and Langmuir models best fitted experimental data, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 591 mg/g at 25°C. Adsorption with multielement samples containing Cr(VI), Cu(II), Cd(II), and Pb(II) also reveal their capability to remove them in a selective way. This mechanically resistant, hydrophilic, and permeable adsorbent media was able to capture both cationic and anionic metallic contaminants. 相似文献

In the present work, the crystallinity and crystalline morphology, thermal stability, water barrier, and mechanical properties of ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) nanocomposites prepared by melt compounding and incorporating both plant (CNW) and bacterial cellulose nanowhiskers (BCNW) are reported. An improvement in the water barrier performance was observed, that is, 67% permeability drop, only for the microcomposite sample incorporating 2 wt % of bacterial cellulose fibrils. No significant differences in the water‐barrier properties of the nanocomposites generated through the two studied preincorporation methods were observed despite the fact that an excellent dispersion was observed in the previous study. On the other hand, direct melt‐mixing of the freeze‐dried nanofiller with EVOH resulted in increased water permeation. The aggregation of the filler in the latter nanocomposite was also ascribed to the detrimental effect on the mechanical properties. Interestingly, by using the precipitation method, an increase in the elastic modulus and tensile strength of ~36 and 22%, respectively, was observed for a 3 wt % BCNW loading, which was thought to coincide with the percolation threshold. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The impact strength of cellulose diacetate (CDA) bonded with a modified cardanol (3‐pentadecylphenoxy acetic acid: PAA) was greatly improved up to 9 kJ/m2 by adding a relatively small amount of modified silicones while suppressing a decrease in bending strength. In our recent research, this thermoplastic resin (PAA‐bonded CDA) exhibited high rigidity, glass transition temperature, and water resistance. However, its impact strength was insufficient for use in durable products. Therefore, silicones modified with polyether, amino, and epoxy groups were investigated as possible ways to improve the impact strength. The results show that adding polyether‐modified silicone (polyether silicone) with moderate polarity relative to PAA‐bonded CDA resulted in shearing deformation greatly enhances its impact strength while maintaining other properties, including glass transition temperature (Tg), water resistance, and thermoplasticity. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A high-efficiency separation of oil and water can be achieved by using specially designed amphiphilic porous membrane. However, the preparation of such membranes often involves complex multistep chemical processes. Herein, we report an amphiphilic composite membrane (polystyrene [PS]/bacterial cellulose [BC] membrane) consisting of hydrophobic recycled PS and hydrophilic BC, fabricated by a facile in situ fermentation process. Not only these membranes exhibit a combination of contrasting wettability but also comprise of a hierarchical network of microfibers and nanofibers, which makes them ideal for oil–water separation. The structural and morphological properties of as-produced BC, recycled PS membrane, and PS/BC composite membrane were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The ability of the membranes to separate oil and water was tested by using an emulsion of hexane-in-water as the feed and the collected filtrates were characterized by optical microscopy and UV–Vis spectroscopy. PS membranes were unable to separate oil and water, while the PS/BC membrane efficiently separated water from the emulsion. PS/BC composite membranes showed a high water recovery of more than 90%, against only 57% recovery shown by BC. Mechanisms of oil–water separation for each membrane are discussed. The reusability of the PS/BC composite membrane was also demonstrated. 相似文献

Impact strength of a modified cardanol‐bonded cellulose thermoplastic resin was greatly improved by using a small amount of olefin resins. As we showed, this thermoplastic resin (3‐pentadecylphenoxy acetic acid (PAA)‐bonded cellulose diacetate (CDA): PAA‐bonded CDA) exhibited high practical properties such as bending strength, heat resistance, and water resistance. However, its impact strength was insufficient for use in durable products. We improved the impact strength of PAA‐bonded CDA by adding hydrophobic olefin resins, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, while maintaining good bending strength and breaking strain. Furthermore, the application of olefin resins also increased water resistance and fluidity. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2014 , 131, 39829. 相似文献

α-Cellulose extracted from jute fiber was grafted with oligo( d -lactic acid) (ODLA) via a graft polycondensation reaction in the presence of para-toluene sulfonic acid and potassium persulfate in toluene at 130 °C for 9 h under 380 mmHg. ODLA was synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization of d -lactides in the presence of stannous octoate (0.03 wt % lactide) and d -lactic acid at 140 °C for 10 h. Composites of poly( l -lactic acid) (PLLA) with the ODLA-grafted α-cellulose were prepared by the solution-mixing and film-casting methods. The grafting of ODLA onto α-cellulose was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The analysis of the composites was performed with FTIR spectroscopy, SEM, wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis. The distribution of the grafted α-cellulose in the composites was uniform and showed better compatibility with PLLA through intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Only homocrystalline structures of PLLA were present in the composites, and the thermal stability increased with increasing percentage of grafted α-cellulose. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Characterizing a novel method for blending regenerated cellulose structures with polyester filaments
The combination method of various manmade fibers with other fibers was developed to create special properties many years ago. Fibers can be mixed in a generation process, such as in solution or melt spinning, or in a fiber spinning process in the form of filaments, staple, sliver, yarn, and so on. Hybrid blended yarns are a common class of yarns in the textile industry, and the most are produced through cotton–polyester or viscose–polyester blending in the spinning process. The cellulose fibers blended in spun yarns should be at least 1 in. in length with appropriate surface properties. This causes limitations in the use of cheap materials. Cheap products owe their manufacturing to waste papers, wood trash, poor linters of cotton, spinning trash, and so on. In this study, a new method for combining regenerated cellulose structures with polyester filaments was examined; it is different from conventional hybrid polyester–viscose fiber production. In the first step, the viscose pulp was prepared and then coated on the polyester filaments in various forms. The properties, including the tensile strength, density, yarn count, moisture regain, static electricity, and dyeing, of the resulted hybrid fibers were evaluated with a variety of methods. The results show that almost all of the properties of the coated samples were improved, especially the moisture absorbance, static electricity, and dyeing properties. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Interconnected porous monolithic materials can be directly obtained from non‐templating methods by reacting raw Kraft black liquor with epichlorohydrin either in the presence or not of surfactant, whereas extracted lignin leads to non‐porous materials. In the presence of a surfactant, micelles organization takes place and porosity of 40–60% can be achieved. Without surfactant, chemically induced phase separation occurs, giving materials with agglomerated nodules morphology. Carbonization followed by activation with CO2 yield monolithic micro/mesoporous carbons with surface area of 300 m2 g?1. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2015 , 132, 41215. 相似文献
