Problems solved by technology

The high-pressure homogenization method has the disadvantage of high energy consumption, and the TEMPO oxidation method has the disadvantages of complicated methods.
At the same time, the fiber conversion rate of the above method is low, which virtually causes waste of raw materials
In order to solve this problem, some scholars homogenized the residue left by the hydrolysis of concentrated sulfuric acid to obtain cellulose nanofibrils. High-yield cellulose nanofibrils were obtained by high-pressure homogenization, but cellulose nanowhiskers were not obtained, and the red

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synchronously preparing cellulose nanowhiskers and cellulose nanofibrils. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out hydrolysis reaction on paper pulpby using a low-concentration sulfuric acid solution at high temperature to obtain cellulose nano whisker turbid liquid, and homogenizing separated cellulose solid residues by using a high-pressure homogenizer to obtain the cellulose nano fibrils. According to the preparation method, fiber raw materials can be fully utilized, the conversion rate is close to 100%, the prepared nano cellulose has a high length-diameter ratio, the initial thermal degradation temperature of the nano cellulose is about 100 DEG C higher than that of nano cellulose prepared through a traditional concentrated sulfuricacid method, and the method has great advantages in the aspect of application of nano composite materials.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of cellulose materials, in particular to a method for synchronously preparing cellulose nano whiskers and cellulose nano fibrils. Background technique [0002] Cellulose is the most potential renewable biomass material on the earth, and it is widely used in papermaking, daily chemicals, textiles and other fields. Nanocellulose has attracted much attention due to its excellent properties (high crystallinity, low density, large specific surface area, high strength, etc.). Many high-value by-products can be derived from nanocellulose as bio-based materials, such as hydrogels, aerogels, nanocomposites, optical and electronic materials, etc. [0003] At present, there are many methods for preparing nanocellulose, such as concentrated sulfuric acid method, high-pressure homogenization method, TEMPO oxidation method, etc., but the above methods have certain shortcomings, such as patent CN105625077A using concentrated sulfur...
