Development of Nanocrystalline Cellulose (NCC) from Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) via Dissolution using Ionic Liquid: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate (BMIM HSO4)

Nanocrystalline Cellulose (NCC) was prepared by dissolution of Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) using Ionic Liquid: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate (BMIM HSO4) at dissolution temperatures of 70 °C, 80 °C, and 90 °C, and dissolution time of 30 minutes and 1 hour respectively. Morphologic...
