Abstract
⺠5 wt% NCC loading increased the tensile strength of the alginate films by 37%. ⺠FTIR analysis suggested hydrogen bonding between alginate and NCC. ⺠NCC incorporation increased the crystallinity of the alginate films. ⺠NCC reinforced films exhibited better thermal stability than the control.
