This document discusses nanocellulose, which refers to nano-structured cellulose that can be produced from wood pulp and other cellulose sources. Nanocellulose includes cellulose nanofibers (CNF), microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), and nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC). Nanocellulose is pseudo-plastic and exhibits thixotropy, becoming less viscous when shaken. It has a wide range of applications including in paper, composites, food products, medical products, and as a reinforcement material.
Nanocomposite shows considerable applications in different fields because of larger surface area, and greater aspect ratio, with fascinating properties. Being environmentally friendly, applications of nanocomposites offer new technology and business opportunities for several sectors, such as aerospace, automotive, electronics, and biotechnology industries.

NANOCELLULOSE AND ITS COMPOSITE FILMS – APPLICATIONS, PROPERTIES, PREPARATION...Kirubanandan Shanmugam
Nanocellulose (NC) is a biodegradable nanomaterial produced from lignocellulosic biomass. The mechanical, chemical or enzymatic processes are normally used for defibrillation of wood fibres into nanofibrils. It is a cellulose nanofibril with unique characteristics leading to potential applications in functional materials. These nanomaterials can replace synthetic plastics and be used as biomaterials for developing recyclable nanocomposites. The fibrils at nanosize provide high surface area and strength and are biodegradable. NC films and their composites have been used in developing functional materials such as barrier materials, substrates for printing circuits in flexible electronics, barrier coatings on the paper and paper board etc., In addition, there is a potential demand for NC films and composites to replace or eliminate conventional plastics. There are many methods available to prepare free-standing NC films with composites and these are critically reviewed and addressed in this chapter. Conventional methods are seen to be time-consuming, and unable to produce outstanding quality films, which set limitations on commercialization. Therefore, a rapid process to produce the NC films is required to meet the potentially large requirement for packaging and other functional material.

Remarkable self-organization and unusual conductivity behavior in cellulose n...Pawan Kumar
Aqueous suspensions of cellulose nanocrystals were blended with Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate)
[PEDOT:PSS], and cast into thin films. The morphology, structure and electrical properties of the resulting nanocomposite
thin films were thoroughly characterized. We found that the CNC–PEDOT:PSS blends self-organize into a layered vertical
stack with a pitch of 100–200 nm while retaining a continuous percolation network for PEDOT. Atomic force microscopy,
dynamic light scattering and multi-angle light scattering measurements confirmed the wrapping of polymer chains around
the rod-like CNCs. The blended films exhibited improved molecular ordering of the PEDOT chains with concomitant
improvement in the carrier mobility. The remarkable self-organization and enhanced structural order enabled the CNC–
PEDOT:PSS blends to exhibit a high conductivity typical of PEDOT:PSS even when the content of the insulating CNCs in
the nanocomposite was as high as 50 wt%.

Cellulose Based Materials: in-Depth Property Survey And AssessmentIRJESJOURNAL
Abstract: During the past decade, holistic efforts by academia, industries, and regulatory bodies have resulted in a paradigm shift in the area of cellulose nanomaterials for materials applications. In an effort to reduce the dependence on petroleum-based packaging materials and coatings, groups are employing advanced nano understanding to manufacture materials that can potentially replace these materials. In effect, environmental concerns and resource availability will become the main factors driving the market demand for these products. This review focuses on the properties of cellulose-based nanomaterials and the possible use of these materials in niche applications. The review covers both partially and fully biodegradable inventions covered in the past 10 years (2006-2016) in the literature. Also, where data is available, environmental footprint and cost analysis of these products are presented.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. Nanocellulose is a term referring to nano-structured cellulose. This may be either
cellulose nanofibers (CNF) also called microfibrillated cellulose (MFC),
nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC or CNC), or bacterial nanocellulose, which refers
to nano-structured cellulose produced by bacteria.
CNF is a material composed of nanosized cellulose fibrils with a high aspect ratio
(length to width ratio).
It is pseudo-plastic and exhibits thixotropy, the property of certain gels or fluids
that are thick (viscous) under normal conditions, but become less viscous when
shaken or agitated.
5. Nanocellulose also called as microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), is a material,
which is composed of nanosized cellulose fibrils that have got high aspect ratio
(length to width ratio).
Most typical dimensions ranges from 5–20 nanometers width and length can
range up to 2000 nanometers.
It is pseudo-plastic and poses the property of certain gels that are viscous under
normal conditions. Its flow becomes thin, less viscous over the time when it is
shaken, agitated, or pressurized.
6. This kind of property of nanocellulose is called as thixotropy. When the shearing
forces are removed the gel regains much of its original state. The fibrils are isolated
from any cellulose.
The most common source of nanocellulose includes wood-based fibers (through
high-pressure, high temperature and high velocity impact homogenization).
Nanocellulose can also be obtained from native fibers by an acid hydrolysis,
giving rise to highly crystalline and rigid nanoparticles (often referred to as CNC or
nanowhiskers) which are shorter (100s to 1000 nanometers) than the nanofibrils
obtained through homogenization, microfluiodization or grinding routes.
7. The terminology microfibrillated/nanocellulose or (MFC) was first used by
Turbak, Snyder and Sandberg in the late 1970s at the ITT (International
Telephone and Telegraph Corporation) Rayonier labs in Whippany, New Jersey,
USA.
To describe a product prepared as a gel type material by passing wood pulp
through a Gaulin type milk homogenizer at high temperatures and high pressures
followed by ejection impact against a hard surface.

9. Manufacture:
Nanocellulose, which is also called cellulose nanofibers (CNF), microfibrillated
cellulose (MFC) or nanocrystallinecellulose (NCC), can be prepared from any
cellulose source material, but woodpulp is normally used.
The nanocellulose fibrils may be isolated from the wood-based fibers using
mechanical methods which expose the pulp to high shear forces, ripping the larger
wood-fibres apart into nanofibers.
Cellulose nanowhiskers are rodlike highly crystalline particles (relative
crystallinity index above 75%) with a rectangular cross section. They are formed by
the acid hydrolysis of native cellulose fibers commonly using sulfuric or
hydrochloric acid.
10. Amorphous sections of native cellulose are hydrolysed and after careful timing,
crystalline sections can be retrieved from the acid solution by centrifugation and
washing.
Their dimensions depend on the native cellulose source material, and hydrolysis
time and temperature.
12. Structure and properties:
The ultrastructure of nanocellulose derived from various sources has been
extensively studied. Techniques such as transmission electron microscopy
(TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM),
wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), small incidence angle X-ray diffraction and
solid state 13C cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CP/MAS), nuclear
magnetic resonance (NMR) and spectroscopy have been used to
characterizetypically dried nanocellulose morphology.

13. AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) height image of carboxymethylated
nanocellulose adsorbed on a silica surface. The scanned surface area is 1 µm2
14. A combination of microscopic techniques with image analysis can provide
information on fibril widths, it is more difficult to determine fibril lengths,because
of entanglements and difficulties in identifying both ends of individual nanofibrils.
Also, nanocellulose suspensions may not be homogeneous and can consist of
various structural components, including cellulose nanofibrils and nanofibril
bundles.
Pulp chemistry has a significant influence on nanocellulose microstructure.
Carboxymethylation increases the numbers of charged groups on the fibril
surfaces, making the fibrils easier to liberate and results in smaller and more
uniform fibril widths (5–15 nm) compared to enzymatically pre-treated
nanocellulose, where the fibril widths were 10–30 nm.
15. Viscosity:
The high viscosity at lownanocellulose concentrations makes nanocellulose
very interesting as a non-caloric stabilizer and gellant in food applications, the
major field explored by the early investigators.
The dynamic rheological properties were investigated in great detail and
revealed that the storage and loss modulus were independent of the angular
frequency at all nanocellulose concentrations between 0.125% to 5.9%.
The storage modulus values are particularly high (104 Pa at 3% concentration)
compared to results for cellulose nanowhiskers (102 Pa at 3% concentration).
16. There is also a particular strong concentration dependence as the storage modulus
increases orders of magnitude if the concentration is increased from 0.125% to
5.9%.
Nanocellulose gels are also highly shear thinning (the viscosity is lost upon
introduction of the shear forces).
The shear-thinning behaviour is particularly useful in a range of different coating
applications.
17. Mechanical properties:
Crystalline cellulose has interesting mechanical properties for use in material
applications. Its tensile strength is about 500MPa, similar to that of aluminium.
Its stiffness is about 140–220 GPa, comparable with that of Kevlar and better
than that of glass fiber, both of which are used commercially to reinforce plastics.
Films made from nanocellulose have high strength (over 200 MPa), high
stiffness (around 20 GPa) and high strain (12%). Its strength/weight ratio is 8
times that of stainless steel.
.
18. Foams:
oNanocellulose-based foams are being studied for packaging applications in order to
replace polystyrene-based foams.
oNanocellulose can also be used to make aerogels/foams, either homogeneously or
in composite formulations.
19. Surface modification:
• The surface modification of nanocellulose is currently receiving a large amount of
attention.
• Nanocellulose displays a high concentration of hydroxyl groups at the surface
which can be reacted. However, hydrogen bonding strongly affects the reactivity of
the surface hydroxyl groups.
• In addition, impurities at the surface of nanocellulose such as glucosidic and lignin
fragments need to be removed before surface modification to obtain acceptable
reproducibility between different batches.
