Abstract

A practical procedure for synthesizing cellulose nanospheres with sizes ranging from 60 to over 570 nm was developed. This methodology provides a near linear relationship between cellulose nanoparticle size and treatment time. The hydrolyzed nanocelluloses are predominantly cellulose II polymorphic crystalline structure and relatively uniform in particle size.
