  2. Nanocellulose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanocellulose

    Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), or nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC), are highly crystalline, rod-like nanoparticles. [6] [7] They are usually covered by negatively charged groups that render them colloidally stable in water. They are typically shorter than CNFs, with a typical length of 100 to 1000 nanometers. [8]

  3. Parchment paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parchment_paper

    Parchment paper, also known as baking paper, is a cellulose-based paper whose material has been processed so as to obtain additional properties such as non-stickiness, grease resistance, resistance to humidity and heat resistance. [1] It is commonly used in baking and cooking as a disposable non-stick paper

  4. Microcrystalline cellulose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcrystalline_cellulose

    Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) is a term for refined wood pulp and is used as a texturizer, an anti-caking agent, a fat substitute, an emulsifier, an extender, and a bulking agent in food production. [1] The most common form is used in vitamin supplements or tablets.

  5. Methyl cellulose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_cellulose

    Methyl cellulose (or methylcellulose) is a compound derived from cellulose. It is sold under a variety of trade names and is used as a thickener and emulsifier in various food and cosmetic products, and also as a bulk-forming laxative. Like cellulose, it is not digestible, non-toxic, and not an allergen.

  6. Nanocrystalline material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanocrystalline_material

    A nanocrystalline (NC) material is a polycrystalline material with a crystallite size of only a few nanometers. These materials fill the gap between amorphous materials without any long range order and conventional coarse-grained materials. Definitions vary, but nanocrystalline material is commonly defined as a crystallite (grain) size below ...

  7. Cellulose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose

    Cellulose is the most abundant organic polymer on Earth. [6] The cellulose content of cotton fibre is 90%, that of wood is 40–50%, and that of dried hemp is approximately 57%. [7] [8] [9] Cellulose is mainly used to produce paperboard and paper. Smaller quantities are converted into a wide variety of derivative products such as cellophane and ...

  9. Cellulase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulase

    Ribbon representation of the Streptomyces lividans β-1,4-endoglucanase catalytic domain - an example from the family 12 glycoside hydrolases [1]. Cellulase (EC 3.2.1.4; systematic name 4-β-D-glucan 4-glucanohydrolase) is any of several enzymes produced chiefly by fungi, bacteria, and protozoans that catalyze cellulolysis, the decomposition of cellulose and of some related polysaccharides:
