Acid mediated networked cellulose: preparation and characterization

Hashaikeh, Raed; Abushammala, Hatem (Elsevier, 2011)

High-yield networked cellulose (NC) material was prepared by sulfuric acid dissolution of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and regeneration in ethanol. The dissolution was studied by varying treatment temperature and time ...
Networked cellulosic gel material as a pharmaceutical excipient

Abushammala, Hatem; Hashaikeh, Raed (Masdar Institute of Science and Technology, 2012)

Networked cellulosic (NC) material was prepared in a gel form via sulfuric acid dissolution and hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and then regeneration in ethanol. The regenerated material was utilized ...
Preparation and characterization of electrospun PLA/nanocrystalline cellulose‐based composites

Pirani, Sanaa; Abushammala, Hatem; Hashaikeh, Raed (Wiley & Sons, 2013-12)

Biodegradable nanocomposites of Nanocrystalline Cellulose (NCC) and electrospun poly-(lactic acid) were prepared via a new mixing technique. Dispersion of hydrophilic NCC in hydrophobic PLA was improved through aqueous ...
