A novel method for the synthesis of cellulose nanofibril whiskers from banana fibers and characterization
Abstract
Alkali treatment coupled with high pressure defibrillation and acid treatment have been tried on banana fibers obtained from the pseudo stem of the banana plant Musa sapientum. The structure and morphology of the fibers have been found to be affected on the basis of the concentration of the alkali and acid and also on the pressure applied. Steam explosion in alkaline medium followed by acidic medium is found to be effective in the depolymerization and defibrillation of the fiber to produce banana nanowhiskers. The chemical constituents of raw and steam exploded fibers were analyzed according to the ASTM standards. Structural analysis of steam exploded fibers was carried out by FTIR and XRD. The fiber diameter and percentage crystallinity of the modified fibers were investigated using X-ray diffraction studies. Characterization of the fibers by SFM and TEM supports the evidence for the development of nanofibrils of banana fibers.

Cellulose nanofibers are mechanically strong, stiff, and highly crystalline.
“Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) offer many advantages: they are mechanically strong, stiff, and highly crystalline, so they find wide applications in the biomedical (Cherian et al., 2008), pharmaceutical (Villanova et al., 2011), and especially the paper industries (Sehaqui, Allais, Zhou, & Berglund, 2011); they can also function as reinforcing agents in polymer matrixes (Lee, Teramoto, & Endo, 2011;S”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
