Abstract
Cellulose has been widely used in papermaking, textile, and chemical industries due to its diverse sources, environmental friendliness, and renewability. Recently, much more attention has been paid to converting cellulose into high-value-added products. Therefore, the extraction of nanocellulose, the dissolution of cellulose, and their applications are some of the most important research topics currently. However, cellulose's dense hydrogen bond network poses challenges for efficient extraction and dissolution, limiting its potential for functional material development. This review discusses the mechanisms of hydrogen bond disruption and weak interactions during nanocellulose extraction and cellulose dissolution. Key challenges and future research directions are highlighted, emphasizing developing efficient, ecofriendly, and cost-effective methods. Additionally, this review provides theoretical insights for constructing high-performance cellulose-based materials.

Abstract
The extensive use of fossil based materials has caused serious pollution problems, the full utilization of biomass resources to prepare high value-added new materials is of great significance for the environmental protection and sustainable social development. For this purpose, this study explored the preparation process and molecular dynamics simulation of cellulose fluorescent materials. Firstly, bacterial cellulose was dissolved in a solution of NaOH and urea at low temperature, followed by a solution blending and hot pressing with hyperbranched polyamide. It was found that the addition of hyperbranched polyamide could effectively filled in the internal pores of cellulose hydrogel, thereby enhancing the fluorescence effects and tensile properties, especially the elongation at break of cellulose materials. The optimal amount of hyperbranched polyamide added was 5 wt%. Molecular dynamics simulation showed that the hydrogen bonds and interaction with cellulose increased as the concentration of hyperbranched polyamide increased.

Abstract
The environmental challenges posed by plastic pollution have prompted the exploration of eco-friendly alternatives to disposable plastic packaging and utensils. Paper-based materials, derived from renewable resources such as wood pulp, non-wood pulp (bamboo pulp, straw pulp, reed pulp, etc.), and recycled paper fibers, are distinguished by their recyclability and biodegradability, making them promising substitutes in the field of plastic food packaging. Despite their merits, challenges like porosity, hydrophilicity, limited barrier properties, and a lack of functionality have restricted their packaging potential. To address these constraints, researchers have introduced antimicrobial agents, hydrophobic substances, and other functional components to improve both physical and functional properties. This enhancement has resulted in notable improvements in food preservation outcomes in real-world scenarios. This paper offers a comprehensive review of recent progress in hydrophobic antimicrobial paper-based materials. In addition to outlining the characteristics and functions of commonly used antimicrobial substances in food packaging, it consolidates the current research landscape and preparation techniques for hydrophobic paper. Furthermore, the paper explores the practical applications of hydrophobic antimicrobial paper-based materials in agricultural produce, meat, and seafood, as well as ready-to-eat food packaging. Finally, challenges in production, application, and recycling processes are outlined to ensure safety and efficacy, and prospects for the future development of antimicrobial hydrophobic paper-based materials are discussed. Overall, the emergence of hydrophobic antimicrobial paper-based materials stands out as a robust alternative to plastic food packaging, offering a compelling solution with superior food preservation capabilities. In the future, paper-based materials with antimicrobial and hydrophobic functionalities are expected to further enhance food safety as promising packaging materials.

Abstract
Sustainable strategies to improve the water resistance of cellulose paper are actively sought. In this work, polymeric microspheres (PMs), prepared through emulsion polymerization of cellulose nanofibers stabilized rubber seed oil-derived monomer, were investigated as coatings on corrugated medium paper (CMP). After infiltrating porous paper with PMs, the water-resistant corrugated papers (WRCPn) with enhanced mechanical properties were obtained. When 30 wt% PMs were introduced, WRCP30 turned out to be highly compacted with an increased water contact angle of 106.3° and a low water vapor transmission rate of 81 g/(m2 d) at 23 °C. Meanwhile, the tensile strength of WRCP30 increased to 22.2 MPa, a 4-fold increase from CMP. When tested in a well-hydrated state, 71% of its mechanical strength in the dry state was maintained. Even with a low content of 10 wt% PMs, WRCP10 also exhibited stable tensile strength and water wettability during the cyclic soaking-drying process. Thus, the plant oil based sustainable emulsion polymers provide a convenient route for enhancing the overall performance of cellulose paper.

Abstract
Cellulose, as a naturally abundant and biocompatible material, is still gaining interest due to its high potential for functionalization. This makes cellulose a promising candidate for replacing plastics. Understanding how cellulose interacts with various additives is crucial for creating composite materials with diverse properties, as it is the case for plastics. In addition, the mechanical properties of the composite materials are assumed to be related to the mobility of the additives against the cellulose. Using a well-defined cellulose model surface (CMS), we aim to understand the adsorption and desorption of two polymeric particles (core-shell particles and microgels) to/from the cellulose surface. The nanomechanics of particles and CMS are quantified by indentation measurements with an atomic force microscope (AFM). AFM topography measurements quantified particle adsorption and desorption on the CMS, while peak force AFM measurements determined the force needed to move individual particles. Both particles and the CMS exhibited pH-dependent charge behavior, allowing a tunable interaction between them. Particle adsorption was irreversible and driven by electrostatic forces. In contrast, desorption and particle mobility forces are dominated by structural morphology. In addition, we found that an annealing procedure consisting of swelling/drying cycles significantly increased the adhesion strength of both particles. Using the data, we achieve a deeper understanding of the interaction of cellulose with polymeric particles, with the potential to advance the development of functional materials and contribute to various fields, including smart packaging, sensors, and biomedical applications.

Superhydrophobic modification of cellulosic paper-based materials: Fabrication, properties, and versatile applications. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 305:120570.

Abstract
Cellulose is the cheapest and mostly widespread green raw material on earth. Due to the easy and versatile developed modification of cellulose, many cellulosic paper-based sustainable materials and their multifunctional applications have attained increasing interest under the background of the implementation of the "plastic ban" policy. However, intrinsic cellulose paper is hydrophilic and non-water-proof, which highly limited its application, thus becoming a bottleneck for the development of "cellulosic paper-based plastic replacement". Unquestioningly, the superhydrophobic modification of cellulosic paper-based materials and the extension of their high value-added applications are highly desired, which is the main content of this review. More importantly, we presented the comprehensive discussion of the functionalized applications of superhydrophobic cellulosic paper-based materials ranging from conventional products to high value-added functional materials such as paper straw and paper mulch film for the first time, which have great industrialization potential and value. This review would offer the valuable guidance and insightful information for the rational construction of sustainable superhydrophobic cellulosic paper for advanced functional devices.

Abstract
Biomimetic actuators are typically constructed as functional bi- or multilayers, where actuating and resistance layers together dictate bending responses upon triggering by environmental stimuli. Inspired by motile plant structures, like the stems of the false rose of Jericho (Selaginella lepidophylla), we introduce polymer-modified paper sheets that can act as soft robotic single-layer actuators capable of hygro-responsive bending reactions. A tailored gradient modification of the paper sheet along its thickness entails increased dry and wet tensile strength and allows at the same time for hygro-responsiveness. For the fabrication of such single-layer paper devices, the adsorption behavior of a cross-linkable polymer to cellulose fiber networks was first evaluated. By using different concentrations and drying procedures fine-tuned polymer gradients throughout the thickness can be achieved. Due to the covalent cross-linking of polymer with fibers, these paper samples possess significantly increased dry and wet tensile strength properties. We furthermore investigated these gradient papers with respect to a mechanical deflection during humidity cycling. The highest humidity sensitivity is achieved using eucalyptus paper with a grammage of 150 g m-2 modified with the polymer dissolved in IPA (~13 wt%) possessing a polymer gradient. Our study presents a straightforward approach for the design of novel hygroscopic, paper-based single-layer actuators, which have a high potential for diverse soft robotic and sensor applications.

Abstract
This review addresses the reconstruction of structural plant components (cellulose, lignin, and hemicelluloses) into materials displaying advanced optical properties. The strategies to isolate the main building blocks are discussed, and the effects of fibrillation, fibril alignment, densification, self-assembly, surface-patterning, and compositing are presented considering their role in engineering optical performance. Then, key elements that enable lignocellulosic to be translated into materials that present optical functionality, such as transparency, haze, reflectance, UV-blocking, luminescence, and structural colors, are described. Mapping the optical landscape that is accessible from lignocellulosics is shown as an essential step toward their utilization in smart devices. Advanced materials built from sustainable resources, including those obtained from industrial or agricultural side streams, demonstrate enormous promise in optoelectronics due to their potentially lower cost, while meeting or even exceeding current demands in performance. The requirements are summarized for the production and application of plant-based optically functional materials in different smart material applications and the review is concluded with a perspective about this active field of knowledge.

Abstract
This study introduces a new combined method of wood impregnation and chemical pulping processes leading to the production of superparamagnetic cellulose fibers with a magnetic nanoparticle-free outer surface. First, magnetic wood chips (MWCs) were prepared by in situ synthesizing of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles during the wood impregnation process. The MWCs were then converted into magnetic fibers by kraft pulping. The results showed that the resulting magnetic fibers had an outer surface comparable to that of non-magnetic fibers while showing superparamagnetic behavior. The XRD results confirmed that the in situ synthesized magnetic nanoparticles were magnetite. Papers made from the new type of magnetic cellulose fibers had much more desirable tensile properties, appearance, and printability than papers made from conventional magnetic cellulose fibers, comparable to those made from non-magnetic fibers.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive materials, frequently designated as "smart/intelligent materials", can modify their structure or properties by either a biological, physical, or chemical stimulus which, if properly controlled, could be used for specific applications. Such materials have been studied and exploited in several fields, like electronics, photonics, controlled drugs administration, imaging and medical diagnosis, among others, as well as in Analytical Chemistry where they have been used as chromatographic stationary phases, as part of sensors and for extraction purposes. This review article pretends to provide an overview of the most recent applications of these materials (mostly polymeric materials) in sample preparation for extraction purposes, as well as to provide a general vision of the current state-of-the-art of this field, their potential use and future applications.

Abstract
As one of the most abundant biopolymers, cellulose has been a basic but essential building block of human society, with its use dating back thousands of years. With recent developments in nanotechnology and increasing environmental concerns, cellulose-based nanomaterials are now gaining attention as promising green material candidates for many high-value applications as a result of their biocompatibility and advantageous physical and chemical properties. In particular, cellulose nanocrystals are notable for their optical properties that can respond to various environmental stimuli as a result of the unique chiral nematic structure of the material. Compositing cellulosic materials with functional polymers, small molecules, and other nanomaterials can further stabilize and amplify these responsive optical signals and introduce multiple new functionalities. On the basis of these capabilities, many advanced applications of cellulose nanomaterials have been proposed, including chemical sensors, photonic papers, decorative coatings, data security, and smart textiles. In this review, we discuss and summarize recent advances in this emerging field of stimuli-responsive optics based on cellulose nanomaterials.

Abstract
Since its invention invented in China, paper has been widely used in the world for quite a long time. However, some intrinsic defects servely hinder its application in some extreme conditions, such as underwater or in fire. Herein, a bio-inspired durable paper with robust fluorine-free coatings was fabricated via a two-step spray-deposition technique. It not only consisted of modified SiO2 microspheres and nanoparticles, but also contained an epoxy resin, endowing the paper with multifunctional properties. First, this bio-inspired functional paper showed excellent superhydrophobic and self-cleaning properties with a high static water contact angle (WCA) of 162.7 ± 0.5° and a low sliding angle (SA) of 5.7 ± 0.6°. Moreover, it possessed unusual repellent properties toward multiple aqueous-based liquids and heat-insulated properties. Second, this paper could be used for writing underwater and maintained satisfactory superhydrophobic performance for a long time with a WCA of 153.3 ± 1.8°. Besides, its high mechanical robustness was also experimentally confirmed in harsh working conditions, such as strong acid/alkali, boiling water, abrasion, bending, and folding. Compared with conventional paper, it is anticipated that this bio-inspired functional paper would be really competitive and demonstrate great potential in the field of underwater and fire-proof applications.

Abstract
Since large amounts of pineapple leaves are abandoned after harvest in agricultural areas, the possibility of developing value-added products from them is of interest. In this work, cellulose fiber was extracted from pineapple leaves and modified with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and carboxymethyl (CM) groups to produce Cell-EDTA and Cell-CM, respectively, which were then used as heavy metal ion adsorbents. A solution of either lead ion (Pb2+) or cadmium ion (Cd2+) was used as wastewater for the purpose of studying adsorption efficiencies. The adsorption efficiencies of Cell-EDTA and Cell-CM were significantly higher than those of the unmodified cellulose in the pH range 1-7. Maximum adsorptions toward Pb2+ and Cd2+ were, for Cell-EDTA, 41.2 and 33.2 mg g-1, respectively, and, for Cell-CM, 63.4 and 23.0 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption behaviors of Cell-CM for Pb2+ and Cd2+ fitted well with a pseudo-first-order model, but those of Cell-EDTA for Pb2+ and Cd2+ fitted well with a pseudo-second-order model. All of the adsorption behaviors could be described using the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Desorption studies of Pb2+ and Cd2+ on both adsorbents using 1 M HCl suggested that regenerability of Cell-EDTA was, for both adsorbates, better than that of Cell-CM. Moreover, adsorption measurements in a mixture of Pb2+ and Cd2+ at various ratios showed that for both adsorbents the adsorption of Pb2+ was higher than that of Cd2+, while the adsorption selectivity for Pb2+ of Cell-CM was greater than that of Cell-EDTA. This study showed that the modified cellulosic adsorbents made from pineapple leaves were able to efficiently adsorb metal ions.

Abstract
Flexible sensors (FSs) are the key components of intelligent equipment and wearable devices, thus attracting increasing research interests in recent years. However, the preparation of multifunctional FS with good degradability in a natural environment is still challenging. In this work, we fabricated a flexible multimodal sensor that can detect multiple stimuli with only one device by spraying the mixture of carbon black (CB) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) on a paper substrate. Scanning electron microscopy visualization indicated the CB particles absorbed on the surface of rGO, which then overlayered together, constructing a hierarchical structure. Benefiting from this unique structure, the obtained FS was demonstrated to have good sensitivity for strain, humidity, temperature, and pressure as well as multiple stimuli and was used to monitor human respirations as well as body motions, such as finger and elbow bending and head nodding. Besides, the sensor can be easily degraded in water being free of electronic pollution, but it also can be reused after the soaking-drying process, implying its reliability. This degradable and multimodal FS may find great potential in flexible electronics.
