Macroporous cellulose monolith as chromatographic support was successfully fabricated from an ionic liquid dissolved cellulose solution by an emulsification method and followed by the cross-linking reaction and DEAE modification. With the physical characterization, the cellulose monolith featured by both the interconnected macropores in range of 0.5-2.5μm and the diffusion pores centered at about 10nm. Given the bimodal pore system, the monolith possessed the specific surface area of 36.4mg and the column permeability of about 7.45×10m. After the DEAE modification, the anion cellulose monolith was evaluated for its chromatography performances. It demonstrated that the static and dynamic adsorption capacity of BSA reached about 66.7mgmL and 43.9mgmL at 10% breakthrough point, respectively. The results were comparable to other chromatographic adsorbent. In addition, the proteins mixture with different pI was well separated at high flow velocity (611.0cmh) and high protein recovery (over 97%), proving the macroporous cellulose monolith had excellent separation performance. In this way, the prepared cellulose monolith with bimodal pores system is expected for the potential application in high-speed chromatography.

The global challenge of wastewater contamination, especially from persistent pollutants like radioactive isotopes and heavy metals, demands innovative purification solutions. Radioactive iodine isotopes (I and I), stemming from nuclear activities, pose serious health risks due to their mobility, bioaccumulation, and ionizing radiation, particularly impacting thyroid health. Similarly, hexavalent chromium, Cr(VI), is highly toxic and persistent in water, linked to cancer and other severe health issues.

Development of Citric-Acid-Modified Cellulose Monolith for Enriching Glycopeptides.

Anal Chem

Department of Applied Chemistry, Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Suita 565-0871, Japan.

Prior to mass spectrometry (MS) analysis, pretreatment of low-abundance glycopeptides is vital for identifying protein glycosylation. In this study, we fabricated an environmentally friendly citric-acid-modified cellulose monolith (CCM) characterized by a coral-like porous structure and high-density hydrophilic groups using a thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method. The CCM production leverages biomass resources, specifically cellulose and citric acid, utilizing TIPS to synthesize continuous porous materials through a straightforward heating and cooling process of polymer solutions.

Flexible supercapacitors offer significant potential for powering next-generation flexible electronics. However, the mechanical and electrochemical stability of flexible supercapacitors under different flexibility conditions is limited by the weak bonding between neighboring layers, posing a major obstacle to their practical application. In this paper, natural coniferous pulp cellulose was successfully modified with ethylenediamine and NiSe/Cell-NH/MoS cellulose flexible electrodes (NCMF) were fabricated by phase transfer and hydrothermal methods.

Direct Ink Writing 3D Printing Elastomeric Polyurethane Aided by Cellulose Nanofibrils.

ACS Nano

October 2024

Sustainable Functional Biomaterials Laboratory, Department of Wood Science, The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia V6T 1Z4, Canada.

3D printing of a flexible polyurethane elastomer is highly demandable for its potential to revolutionize industries ranging from footwear to soft robotics thanks to its exceptional design flexibility and elasticity performance. Nevertheless, conventional methods like fused deposition modeling (FDM) and vat photopolymerization (VPP) polyurethane 3D printing typically limit material options to thermoplastic or photocurable polyurethanes. In this research, a water-borne polyurethane ink was synthesized for direct ink writing (DIW) 3D printing through the incorporation of cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs), enabling direct printing of complex, monolithic elastomeric structures at room temperature that can maintain the designed structure.

Monolithic electrocatalysts are desired for the electro-Fenton oxidation system. We used a hydrogel consisting of TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers (TOCN) and cationic guar gum (CGG) to disperse and support Fe-rich sludge and finally obtained a Fe-doped biochar (denoted as C-Sludge@TOCN/CGG) after the freeze-drying and carbonization. This C-Sludge@TOCN/CGG exhibited a porous structure with evenly-distributed Fe due to the inherently three-dimensional porous structure of TOCN/CGG hydrogel and the abundant carbon content.
