Preparation of Pineapple Leaf Cellulose Membrane

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, the pineapple leaf cellulose membrane was prepared after being dissolved in ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl)) and high pressure microfluidization process. The chemical morphology and structure of cellulose membrane were measured by scanning electron microscope (SEM), fourier transformed infrared spectra (FT-IR), extension test and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Resules indicated that after microfluidizer, the surface of membrane became smoother, however the tensile strength and thermal stability of cellulose membrane was decreased due to the shearing action of microfluidizer. This would broad the application of cellulose membrane widely.
