Isolation of Microfibrillated Cellulose (MFC) from Local Hardwood Waste, Resak (Vatica spp.)

Article Preview

Abstract:

Micrifibrillated cellulose (MFC) is generally can be prepared either by acid hydrolysis, chemical treatments, or by a high pressure refiner. In this study, the MFC of Resak’s hardwood waste with high degree of crystallinity has been obtained by an acid hydrolysis using mineral acid H2SO4. The microstructures of the MFC were characterized via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM).
