| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Six systematically designed chemical structures were incorporated to study cellulose nanofiber surface design for polymer reinforcement. The CNFs were melt extruded with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and injection molded to evaluate their mechanical reinforcing efficiency. Although the pivaloylated CNFs show poor dispersibility in HDPE, the reinforcing efficiencies of the Young’s modulus and tensile strength, as well as linear thermal expansion, are higher for pivaloylated CNFs than for other chemically modified CNFs. Transmission electron microscopy observation of pivaloylated-CNF-reinforced HDPE revealed that extended HDPE crystal chains were generated and an orderly folded crystal of HDPE chains grew from the extended HDPE crystal chains, as well as the surface of CNFs (double shish -kebab structure), after injection molding.
