Abstract: Abstract:In this work, the effects of incorporating cellulose nanocrystals from soy hulls (WSH 30 ) on the mechanical, thermal, and barrier properties of methylcellulose (MC) nanocomposites were evaluated. MC/WSH 30 nanocomposite films with different filler levels (2, 4, 6, 8, and 10%) were prepared by casting. Compared to neat MC film, improvements in the mechanical and barrier properties were observed, while thermal stability was retained. The improved mechanical properties of nanocomposites prepared may be … Show more

“…30 The slight decrease in the degree of crystallinity in PHBV/GC composites, verified by DSC (Table 2), and a relative weak adhesion between the GC particles and the PHBV matrix (as suggested before), may have contributed to impair an increase in the water permeation resistance of these materials. 53 As can be seen in Table 4, certain composite samples obtained with GC of larger particle size exhibit a worsening of the water vapor barrier properties. Samples of PHBV/2.5 GC L and PHBV/5.0 GC L composites submitted to WVT rate analysis showed an 87% and 162% increase in WVT in relation to neat PHBV.…”
