Problems solved by technology

Due to the use of sulfuric acid to hydrolyze cellulose in this method, the prepared cellulose nanocrystal suspension contains a large amount of free sulfonate ions, and the existence of these sulfonate ions will adversely affect the heat resistance of cellulose nanocrystals, resulting in Cellulose nanocrystals begin to decompose at around 90°C, so dialysis is generally required to remove free sulfonate ions during post-treatment (ACS Sustainable Chem. Eng. 2016, 4, 2517-2527) to improve the heat resistance of cellulose nanocrystals Sex, but the dialysis process is not only time-consuming, but also consumes a lot of water, resulting in great waste
In addition, negatively charged sulfonate groups are grafted on the surface of the obtained cellulose nanocrystals, which is beneficial to its dispersion in the water phase, but the presence of such sulfonate groups also affects the heat resistance of the cellulose nanocrystals. Adverse effects (Biomacromolecules 2004,5,1671-1677), and dialysis cannot be removed, so the heat resistance of cellulose nanocrystals produced by acid hydrolysis is still poor after dialysis treatment (begins to decompose around 150°C)
[0006] There are a large number of hydroxyl groups on the surface of cellulose nanocrystals, which are easy to form strong hydrogen bonds during the drying process, resulting in the agglomeration of powder cellulose nanocrystals after water removal, and it is difficult to disperse into a stable suspension in water during subsequent use, so Dispersed in water is still the best way to store it, which limits its application to some extent
[0007] The existing cellulose nanocrystals prepared by acid hydrolysis with sulfuric acid have the disadvantages of poor heat resistance and difficulty in redispersing in the water phase after drying
And after hydrolysis, dialysis is required, the process is cumbersome, and it is not suitable for industrial production

[0001] 【Technical field】 [0002] The invention belongs to the field of preparation of nanometer materials, in particular to a method for preparing powder cellulose nanocrystals. [0003] 【Background technique】 [0004] Cellulose is the most abundant renewable natural resource in the world. Facing the increasingly serious resource crisis and environmental crisis, the advantages of cellulose's renewable and abundant sources make it a research hotspot in recent years. Cellulose nanocrystals made from cellulose have the characteristics of low density, high aspect ratio, reactive surface, high crystallinity, high Young's modulus, and high strength. The field of composite materials has huge potential application value. [0005] Using sulfuric acid as a hydrolyzing agent to prepare cellulose nanocrystals through acid hydrolysis, the process is relatively simple, and the obtained cellulose nanocrystal suspension can exist stably, which is currently the main method for industrial prod...
