Research Abstract |
This research aimed at obtaining useful information to develop advanced functional nanocomposites by novel hybridization of cellulosic polysaccharides with inorganic compounds. Successful examples of such hybrids included nanoincorporation of layered double hydroxides into a miscible polymer blend system of cellulose acetate, synthesis of iron oxide-embedded polysaccharide composites showing anisotropic magnetization behavior, hydroxyapatite deposition onto cholesteric stratums in a liquid-crystalline cellulose derivative/polymer network system, and fabrication of optically chiral silica monoliths imprinted with a cholesteric structure of cellulose derivatives via sol-gel conversion of alkoxysilane as solvent constituent.
