Novel sandwiched structures in starch/cellulose nanowhiskers (CNWs) composite films

Novel sandwiched structures of cellulose nanowhiskers (CNWs) were found for the first time at the cross section of fractured starch/CNWs composite films. CNWs were obtained by hydrolysing bleached flax yarns through heating in a concentrated sulfuric acid (60 wt. %) aqueous solution at 55 °C for 60...
