“…This finding complements a previous study on recovery of nanocellulose from OPF which obtained crystallinity index of 57.7%. 19 Crystallinity index obtained in this study was slightly lower than theirs and this could be attributed to the time of acid hydrolysis. A longer hydrolysis time may have partially degraded the crystalline structure of cellulose nancrystals hence resulted in a lower crystallinity index in this study.…”

“…In other words, Cs biocomposites tend to have higher cross‐linking with the addition of OPF nanocellulose compared with COM nanocellulose. This finding may be attributed to the fact that OPF nanocellulose is smaller in size as compared with COM nanocellulose which could lead to the higher surface area available for interaction with Cs matrix . This observation suggests that OPF nanocellulose is a good candidate for producing higher degree of cross‐linking in Cs biocomposites.…”

“…Aprotic solvent, especially DMSO and THF, do not contain hydrogen to form hydrogen bonds with Cs biocomposites. This means that the ions in the solvent are freely moving, which makes the solvent highly reactive . However, OPF and COM nanocellulose were able to protect the Cs biocomposites from a high mass loss despite placing them in highly reactivity solvents.…”

We investigated the chemical stability and swelling behaviour of synthesized biocomposites with varying concentrations of oil palm frond (OPF) nanocellulose and chitosan (Cs) for biomedical applications. Nanocellulose were extracted via acid hydrolysis method from OPFs and commercialized (COM) cellulose for comparative analysis. Condensation polymerization process was implemented to incorporate the nanocellulose and N, N’‐Methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) crosslinker into the Cs. Flory‐Huggin model was used to test their swelling behavior. Biocomposites in wet condition was observed through a variable pressure scanning electron microscopy (VP‐SEM). Results showed that increasing the amount of nanocellulose on the biocomposites can reduce the swelling of the Cs, and it is significantly reduced (up to 420% at pH 4, up to 576% at pH 7, up to 305% at pH 10) with the use of OPF nanocellulose. Moreover, adding OPF nanocellulose to Cs has improved its stability in acidic medium, basic medium, aprotic solvent, polar solvent, non‐polar solvent up to 90, 23, 23, 18, 22%, respectively. The swelling resistance and chemical stability of Cs biocomposites with OPF nanocellulose were better than using COM nanocellulose. POLYM.

Oil palm are among the best known and most extensively cultivated plant families, especially Indonesia and Malaysia. Many common products and foods are derived from oil palm, its making them one of the most economically important plants. On the other hand, declining supply of raw materials from natural resources has motivated researchers to find alternatives to produce new materials from sustainable resources like oil palm. Oil palm waste is possibly an ideal source for cellulose-based natural fibers and particles. Generally, oil palm waste such as oil palm empty fruit bunches, oil palm trunk, oil palm shell and oil palm ash are good source of biomaterials. Lack of sufficient documentation of existing scientific information about the utilization of oil palm waste raw materials for biomaterial production is the driving force behind the this chapter. Incorporation of various types of biomaterial derived from oil palm waste resources as reinforcement in polymer matrices lead to the development of biocomposites products and this can be used in wide range of potential applications. Properties and characterization of biomaterial from oil palm waste will not only help to promote further study on nanomaterials derived from non-wood materials but also emphasize the importance of commercially exploit oil palm waste for sustainable products.
