Abstract
In addition, the influence of But-CNC dosage and emulsion salinity (0-5% NaCl by weight) was investigated. The background salt concentration only had a minor effect on droplet size, and the stabilization effect was still apparent, with high electrolyte concentration. These results demonstrate the potential of bifunctionalized cellulose (with surface-active groups attached) to act as a nanoparticle emulsifier in oil-water emulsions, thus enabling its utilization in oil-destruction activities.
