Microwave-assisted pretreatment can be used for fermentable sugar production from lignocellulosic biomass. In this study, the optimum hydrolysis conditions of barley husk, oat husk, wheat bran, and rye bran were determined in power level …

Flexibility and modulus of elasticity data for two types of wet cellulose fibres using a direct force–displacement method by means of AFM are reported for never dried wet fibres immersed in water. The flexibilities for the bleached softwood kraft …

The bacterial cellulose (BC) produced by Gluconobacter xylinus due to its versatile properties, is used in healthcare and industrial applications. However, its use is restricted owing to the limited yield from the existing culture protocols. In …

In the past, the direct production of lignin-containing nanofibers from wood materials has been very limited, and nanoscale fibers (nanocelluloses) have been mainly isolated from chemically delignified, bleached cellulose pulp. In this study, we …

Regenerated cellulose fibers were successfully prepared through dissolving cotton linters in NaOH/thiourea/urea aqueous solution at −2 °C by a twin-screw extruder and wet-spinning process at varying precipitation and drawing conditions. The …
