Abstract

A simple processing technology based on a spontaneous arrangement of gold nanoparticles on cellulose nanofibers makes it possible to form a gold leaf with mechanical strength, flexibility, self-healing ability, and electrical resistivity with a small amount of gold (13 vol.%). Furthermore, this material forms leaves on three-dimensional micrometer-sized substrates. The hybrid film holds great promise as a novel gold leaf for a wide range of applications owing to its unique combination of superior properties. More information can be found in the Communication by Hiroshi Shiigi et al. on page 581 in Issue 5, 2019 (DOI: 10.1002/cnma.201800643).
