Abstract:The effect of the composite coating containing a mixture of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) prepared from bamboo pulp on the hydrophobic, oleophobic and strength properties of paper was investigated. The results showed that the size of bamboo fibers (BFs) decreased significantly and the crystallinity increased significantly after biological enzyme treatment. The average length of CNFs obtained by high pressure homogenization was about 2.4 µm, the diameter was about 28.7 nm, and the crys… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
