Developing advanced functional materials requires the synergistic integration of nanoscale reinforcements with tailored properties. In this work, composite films of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs), and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) were synthesized using a combination of solution casting, high shear homogenization, vacuum filtra ...

This study explores the use of citric acid and L-ascorbic acid as reducing agents in CNC/CNF/rGO nanocomposite fabrication, focusing on their effects on electrical conductivity and mechanical properties. Through comprehensive analysis, L-ascorbic acid showed superior reduction efficiency, producing rGO with enhanced electrical conductivity up to 2.5 S/m, ...

Semi-interpenetrating polymer network (SIPN) hydrogels composed of sodium alginate/poly (vinyl alcohol), reinforced by PEG-grafted-graphene oxide (GO-g-PEG) were prepared by ionic crosslinking of sodium alginate. The impact of grafted PEG molecular weight with two molecular weights, i.e. 400 and 2000 g/mol, and component composition were studied on the mo ...
