Preparation and Characterization Nano-Cellulose and its Surface Modification by Silane Coupling Agent

Article Preview

Abstract:

Pineapple leaf fiber (PALF) was pretreated by sodium hydroxide, and hydrolyzed by sulfuric acid to obtained nano-cellulose (NC). The SEM showed that size of NC is 30-50nm. Bis[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]tetrasulfide (Si-69) was employed to sueface modificate the NC. The results of characterization of particle size, zeta potential, FTIR and contact angle illuminated that particle size of surface modified NC was smaller than NC and zeta potential of -75.8mV was lower than NC’s. The hydrophobicity of surface modifiedNC has been improved.
