“…Cellulose nanofibers (CNF) have gained significant research interest due to their renewable, sustainable, and abundant resources characteristic . CNF exhibit a high aspect ratio and good flexibility, making them attractive to act as building blocks for constructing high-performance 3D architectures . Specifically, cellulosic aerogels, as an environment-friendly material, have been widely applied in oil/water separation, , air filtration, , and energy storage devices. , The easy fabrication, great environmental friendliness, tunable 3D network structure, and good mechanical robustness of cellulosic aerogels provide us with inspiration to explore their novel application in the purification and separation of proteins.…”
