Abstract
⺠We present the effect induced by a ball milling process on cellulose. ⺠The cellulose amorphization and the mean size reduction of the crystallite domains were quantified. ⺠Ball milled cellulose shows increased water absorption and reduced thermal stability. ⺠The disappearance of the fibrous structure is evidenced as a consequence of the ball milling process.
