Abstract

Considering the environmentally oriented globalization and the worldwide sustainable development approach of governments, the production of nanocelluloses, in particular, cellulose nanofibers, from different resources (plant, animals, and microorganisms) has drawn extensive attention. Cellulose nanofibers comprise of three main types including microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), nanocrystalline cellulose (NFC), as well as bacterial nanocellulose (BC). To date, researchers conduct studies on cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) as top candidates that possess staggering physical, chemical, and biological properties. In this chapter, different kinds of CNFs and their properties are discussed. Unique morphological, mechanical, chemical, electrical, and thermal properties of CNFs will be also highlighted followed by other major properties such as optical, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. Finally, some emerging applications in reinforcement, electronics, nanopaper production, filtration, and biomedical field are mentioned.
