Flexible, iridescent nanocrystalline cellulose film, and method for preparation |
摘要 |
Flexible nanocrystalline cellulose films (NCC) include a polymer while retaining the property of tunable color. Polymers, for example PVOH and SB-latex, are effective in increasing the flexibility of the NCC films. The NCC film made with PVOH retains the iridescence better than that made with SB-latex; however, the NCC film made with SB-latex has a better tensile strength. In addition, the NCC film made with PVOH was found to disperse easily in water while the NCC film made with SB latex does not disperse in water (it is strongly water resistant). The color of NCC film made with PVOH and SB-latex can still be tuned with techniques that provide for tuning. |

1. A method of making a flexible, iridescent nanocrystalline cellulose film comprising: forming a suspension of nanocrystalline cellulose particles and a polymer in an aqueous vehicle, casting a wet film of said suspension on a substrate treated to reduce adhesion between the substrate and a solid film to be formed from said wet film, drying said wet film as a solid film, and peeling said solid film from said substrate as a flexible, iridescent nanocrystalline cellulose film, wherein said polymer is a hydroxyl group containing polymer having a Molecular Weight less than 10,000. |
