The aim of this study was to prepare sulfonated graphene oxide/polyether sulfone (GO-SOH/PES) mixed matrix membranes (GPMMMs) with high porosity and straight-through catalytic channels by segregation and used for dynamic and continuous hydrolysis of cellulose. The high porosity and segregation increased the exposure of catalysts synergistically and the formative GO-SOH enriched, straight-through catalytic channels had higher catalytic performance, enhancing the diffusion of hydrolytic products. Dynamic hydrolysis of cellulose is more efficient than static hydrolysis due to the enhanced contact between cellulose and catalysts achieved by the extra driving forces, and the further degradation of produced saccharides was suppressed due to the high freedom of products. The TRS reached 98.18% after 1 h at 150 °C with a catalyst/cellulose mass ratio of 1:5. More importantly, the immobilization of GO-SOH by PES improved its stability and reusability at high reaction temperature. This strategy provides guidance to the design of high-performance catalytic membranes.

Under mild conditions, formic acid effectively separates the components of lignocellulose, removing the majority of the hemicellulose and lignin from the cellulose. However, it has not yet been determined if multiple treatments with fresh formic acid may totally remove hemicellulose and lignin. In this study, fresh formic acid was used to repeatedly pretreat the bamboo powder, and the effect of multiple treatments on the physicochemical structure of the bamboo powder was investigated using changes in fractions, enzymatic hydrolysis, hydrophilicity, cellulose crystallinity, and lignin structure.

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) prepared by sulfuric acid hydrolysis were added to phthalocyanine green colour pastes with a surfactant to improve stability. The particle size, zeta potential, absorbance, and microstructure of the colour pastes were analyzed and characterized. The mechanism of CNCs to enhance the stability of hydrophobic phthalocyanine green in water was investigated.

This study presents the development of biocompatible and biodegradable nanocomposites utilizing renewable cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) in polycaprolactone (PCL)-based polyurethane acrylates (PUA) through in situ polymerization. First, CNCs were derived from cotton linter via acid hydrolysis; then functionalized with 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane to produce silane-modified CNCs (S-CNCs). CNCs offered uniform dispersion in PUA up to 2 wt% loading, resulting in significant property enhancements, including ~60 % increase in tensile strength and ~25 % increase in Young's modulus.
