“…As stated by Kuang et al (2020) and Ahrouch et al (2019), the addition of MMT clay has little effect on the chemical composition, but it lowers the adsorption peak of AC. This is supported by the findings of Arjmandi et al (2016), which reported that the chemical structure of MMT clay with mixture does not change because no new functional groups are observed.…”

“…The presence of these peaks provides a good adhesion interaction within the mixture. Arjmandi et al (2016) and Li et al (2017) reported that MMT has several uniform polar sites on its structure that indicate the content of electron density along with the interlayer spaces and their surfaces. As stated by Kuang et al (2020) and Ahrouch et al (2019), the addition of MMT clay has little effect on the chemical composition, but it lowers the adsorption peak of AC.…”

The nanocarbon-based mixture was shown to be an effective adsorbent for removing dyes and heavy metals from wastewater via adsorption. The goal of this research was to prepare and investigate the properties of a bio-carbon mixture made from Dabai (Canarium odontophyllum) nutshell with the addition of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and montmorillonite (MMT) clay. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to determine the functional groups of raw carbon and potassium hydroxide (KOH)-activated carbon (AC). The FTIR analysis of the active carbon revealed that the active carbon had more surface chemistry than the non-AC. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was used to compare the raw and AC morphologies and the developed nanocarbon. The results were confirmed using energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis to verify the elements in the studied sample. The SEM analysis revealed that the structure of both the carbon samples was irregular, granular, and porous. BET analysis showed that nano-activated carbon had higher surface area compared to activated carbon itself. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used in Design-Expert 13.0 software for the sample composition development to achieve the best performance of the developed nanocarbon as an adsorbent.

“…The lowest effect on tensile strength results was obtained with MC, which result is supported also by Bulota et al [ 21 ]. The low optimum, below 5% of cellulosic nanomaterial to PLA, is supported by the results of other studies [ 19 , 41 ].…”

Effects of Surfactants on the Preparation of Nanocellulose-PLA Composites

Thermoplastic composite materials containing wood fibers are gaining increasing interest in the manufacturing industry. One approach is to use nano- or micro-size cellulosic fibrils as additives and to improve the mechanical properties obtainable with only small fibril loadings by exploiting the high aspect ratio and surface area of nanocellulose. In this study, we used four different wood cellulose-based materials in a thermoplastic polylactide (PLA) matrix: cellulose nanofibrils produced from softwood kraft pulp (CNF) and dissolving pulp (CNFSD), enzymatically prepared high-consistency nanocellulose (HefCel) and microcellulose (MC) together with long alkyl chain dispersion-improving agents. We observed increased impact strength with HefCel and MC addition of 5% and increased tensile strength with CNF addition of 3%. The addition of a reactive dispersion agent, epoxy-modified linseed oil, was found to be favorable in combination with HefCel and MC.

“…The good dispersion of NCC within the polylactic acid matrix provides a strong, tough, and more optically transparent composite material. [70] Model polylactic acid nanocomposites containing 5 wt% modified nanocellulose demonstrated improvements in tensile modulus and strength of 50% and 12%, respectively, over neat polylactic acid. [71] Nevertheless, when compared to polylactic acid containing 5 wt% neat nanocellulose, the enhancement was only marginal, with 5% improvement in tensile modulus but no improvement in tensile strength.…”

In this review, a recent prospect on application of nanocellulose in energy application has been highlighted. To achieve high capacities that are essential for effective extraction of interesting ions and for faster charging and discharging in the energy storage devices, nanocellulose in the conducting matrix must obviously assist the dual purpose of mechanically improving and reinforcing the specific charge capacity. The abundant number of nanocellulose hydroxyl groups on the surface favors the formation of hydrogen bonding in an ordered structure and lead to it having high strength and stiffness properties at low density. This brought up the idea of utilizing nanocellulose as a reinforcement and energy adsorption agent originating from the possibility of exploiting the high strength and stiffness of cellulose crystals in composite applications.
