“…The concept of all-cellulose composites has been explored for a wide range of cellulose materials including wood pulp fibres [250,251], filter and Kraft paper [252][253][254][255], MCC [256][257][258][259][260], sisal [261,262], ramie [263], regenerated cellulose (Lyocell) and cellulose fibres spun from an anisotropic phosphoric acid solution (Bocell) [264], and BC [265]. These studies showed great promise.…”

This paper provides an overview of recent progress made in the area of cellulose nanofibre-based nanocomposites. An introduction into the methods used to isolate cellulose nanofibres (nanowhiskers, nanofibrils) is given, with details of their structure. Following this, the article is split into sections dealing with processing and characterisation of cellulose nanocomposites and new developments in the area, with particular emphasis on applications. The types of cellulose nanofibres covered are those extracted from plants by acid hydrolysis (nanowhiskers), mechanical treatment and those that occur naturally (tunicate nanowhiskers) or under culturing conditions (bacterial cellulose nanofibrils). Research highlighted in the article are the use of cellulose nanowhiskers for shape memory nanocomposites, analysis of the interfacial properties of cellulose nanowhisker and nanofibrilbased composites using Raman spectroscopy, switchable interfaces that mimic sea cucumbers, polymerisation from the surface of cellulose nanowhiskers by atom transfer radical polymerisation and ring opening polymerisation,

“…For example, the acylation of cellulose fibers with fatty acids [4][5][6][7][8][9] represents an interesting way to prepare reinforcing elements for composites with common thermoplastic matrices, such as polyethylene (PE). This strategy is particularly relevant because of the renewable and biodegradable nature of fatty acids and, of course, of their predominantly non-polar nature.…”

a b s t r a c tLow-density polyethylene was filled with unmodified and fatty acid (hexanoic, dodecanoic, octadecanoic and docosanoic acids) esterified cellulose fibers. The thermal and mechanical properties, morphology and the water absorption behavior of the ensuing composites were investigated. The chemical modification of the cellulose fibers with fatty acids clearly improved the interfacial adhesion with the matrix and hence the mechanical properties of the composites and decreased their water uptake capacity. The performance of the composites was strongly affected by the degree of substitution (DS) and the fatty chain length as indicated by the fact that esterified cellulose fibers with low DS gave composites with better mechanical properties.

“…As a result, it was found that acetylation proceeds from the surface to the core of each microfibril and the I crystals undergo acetylation more rapidly than the I crystals. Since the acetylated surface is expected to provide improved adhesion with hydrophobic matrices, use of partial acetylation of cellulosic fibres has been intensively studied as reinforcing elements for composite materials [49,50].…”
