Nanocellulose: Resources, Physio-Chemical Properties, Current Uses and Future Applications

The growing environmental concerns due to the excessive use of non-renewable petroleum based products have raised interest for the sustainable synthesis of bio-based value added products and chemicals. Recently, nanocellulose has attracted wide attention because of its unique properties such as high...
