Analyzing the film formation mechanism of cellulose nanoparticles (CNPs) based on the fast freeze-drying morphology
Tóm tắt
The aim of this study was to discern the film formation mechanism of cellulose nanoparticle suspensions (CNP suspensions) by transforming the film formation process to be a water evaporation process, investigating the fast freeze-drying morphology of CNPs, the resulting natural formation structure, and the relationship of CNPs and water molecules. It was found that an increasing aspect ratio transforms CNPs from the oriented arrangement to a distributed network. Hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces among CNPs led to a close and interactive film formation process, contributing to various microstructures in the resultant films. High aspect ratios in CNPs hindered the formation of interaction as well as increased absorbed water on CNPs. The interaction among CNPs, and the interaction between CNPs and water molecules were reflected in shear-thinning behavior of CNP suspensions. High aspect ratio CNPs had the capacity of absorbing more immobilized water, partially leading to a higher viscosity. The microstructures of CNP films were fund to be dense without significant layers or holes and varied from the fast freeze-drying morphology, due to the continuous volume reduction in water evaporation. Overall, it is expected that discerning the film formation mechanism of CNPs provide guidance for controlling the film structure and explaining the macroscopic property of the resultant materials.
