A mild and efficient approach for the preparation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) was developed by using mixed HSO/Oxalic acid hydrolysis. In this process, the mixed acid of sulfuric acid, oxalic acid and HO in an optimal mass ratio of 1:5:4 was used to produce CNCs from bleached eucalyptus kraft pulp (BEKP) at 80 °C for 2-5 h. The CNCs with a diameter range of 5-20 nm and a length range of 150-400 nm were obtained at a high yield (>70%) and showed excellent dispersion stability in water and good thermal stability. Moreover, the dosage of sulfuric acid can reduce to 2.4 g/g CNCs in this mixed acid hydrolysis, which is far lower than that of the typical 64% sulfuric acid hydrolysis (55 g/g CNCs, tested in this work). In addition, 91±2% of oxalic acid could be recovered by a simple recrystallization operation.
通过使用硫酸/草酸混合水解法,开发了一种温和且高效的制备纤维素纳米晶体(CNCs)的方法。在此过程中,以1:5:4的最佳质量比混合硫酸、草酸和水的混合酸,在80°C下处理漂白桉木硫酸盐浆(BEKP)2 - 5小时以制备CNCs。获得了直径范围为5 - 20nm、长度范围为150 - 400nm的CNCs,产率高(>70%),在水中表现出优异的分散稳定性和良好的热稳定性。此外,在这种混合酸水解中,硫酸用量可降至2.4 g/g CNCs,远低于典型的64%硫酸水解(本工作中测试为55 g/g CNCs)。另外,通过简单的重结晶操作可回收91±2%的草酸。
