Abstract

hydrolysis, CNC2 converts to cellulose II and displays a spherical shape with lower crystallinity and thermal stability than CNC1, mainly due to surface sulfate groups. These results demonstrate that HPAA bleaching is both effective and environmentally preferable for whitening cellulose derived from agricultural waste.
