Abstract
⺠We present a procedure for extraction of nanocellulose structures from raw cotton linter. ⺠The raw linter and nanocellulose structures were characterized. ⺠Pulping the raw linter is not required before the nanocellulose extraction. ⺠The nanostructures have properties significantly different from the raw linter. ⺠Using linter for nanocellulose extraction is an option for value addition to this textile by-product.
