Polymer Nanocomposites Characterization: Atomic Layer Deposition of Metal Oxide on Nanocellulose for Enabling Microscopic Characterization of Polymer Nanocomposites (Small 46/2018)
Source abstract
Abstract
Characterization of organic nanoparticle orientation in a polyurethane foam, which exhibits anisotropic mechanical properties, remains challenging. In article number 1803439, John F. Conley Jr., Pratheep K. Annamalai, and co-workers briefly demonstrate the application of atomic layer deposition to enhance the contrast of nanocellulose through a coating of alumina on nanocellulose and enabling microscopic characterisation. By incorporating alumina coated nanocellulose in a polyurethane foam, it also demonstrates nanocellulose alignment in the foam-rise direction.
