Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:131983. [PMID: 38777685 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131983] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2024] [Revised: 04/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
In recent years, click reactions with cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) participation have gradually become a research hotspot. Carboxylamine condensation is the most used method to introduce terminal alkyne groups at the reducing end of CNC as reaction sites for click reactions. However, hydroxyl groups on CNC surface would be slightly oxidized during the carboxyamine condensation process, inducing the potential positions of introduced alkynes would be not only at the reducing end but also on CNC surface. Here, aldimine condensation was proposed to introduce terminal alkyne groups just at the reducing end of CNC, and a systematic comparison analysis was conducted with carboxylamine condensation. Firstly, the selectivity and extent of alkynylation were characterized by XPS and EA. Secondly, the end aldehyde content in these CNC samples was measured by the BCA method, which quantitatively explained the grafting efficiency of aldimine condensation and further verified its feasibility. Thirdly, the clickability of the modified CNC samples was confirmed through XPS analysis of the products after a pre-designed click reaction. In sum, aldimine condensation was proven to be a simple and effective strategy for introducing terminal alkyne groups at the reducing end of CNC, which could be used as reaction sites for further click reactions.

Abstract
The effect of beating starting pulp was investigated on the oxidation efficiency of ammonium persulfate (APS), the yield, and the properties of the CNCs. The beaten pulp and the subsequent CNCs were characterized, respectively, by different techniques. The CNCs were classified as CNC1 and CNC2, dependent on ultrasonication. It showed that the beating exposed more free OH groups in the pulp and enhanced the yield and surface charges of CNCs. Compared to the CNC2, the CNC1 had a higher surface charge, higher crystallinity, higher thermal stability, shorter length, smaller length distribution, and slightly larger width. The CNC1 and CNC2 had similar rheological properties. For the beaten pulp with a beating degree of 25°SR, the yields of the CNC1 and the total CNCs reached the maximum, 42.65 and 34.11 %, respectively. The surface charges of the CNC1 and the CNC2 also reached the maximum, -44.5 and - 33.6 mV, respectively. Their crystallinity indexes were 80.07 and 75.42 %, respectively. The lengths of the CNC1 and the CNC2 were 157.31 ± 30.61 and 214.92 ± 65.52 nm, and their widths were 10.13 ± 2.74 and 9.43 ± 2.99 nm, respectively. Therefore, proper beating enhanced the APS oxidation efficiency and influenced the CNCs properties.

Abstract
The resurgence of cellulose as nano-dimensional 'nanocellulose' has unlocked a sustainable bioeconomy for the development of advanced functional biomaterials. Bestowed with multifunctional attributes, such as renewability and abundance of its source, biodegradability, biocompatibility, superior mechanical, optical, and rheological properties, tunable self-assembly and surface chemistry, nanocellulose presents exclusive opportunities for a wide range of novel applications. However, to alleviate its intrinsic hydrophilicity-related constraints surface functionalization is inevitably needed to foster various targeted applications. The abundant surface hydroxyl groups on nanocellulose offer opportunities for grafting small molecules or macromolecular entities using either a 'graft onto' or 'graft from' approach, resulting in materials with distinctive functionalities. Most of the reviews published to date extensively discussed 'graft from' modification approaches, however 'graft onto' approaches are not well discussed. Hence, this review aims to provide a comprehensive summary of 'graft onto' approaches. Furthermore, insight into some of the recently emerging applications of this grafted nanocellulose including advanced nanocomposite formulation, stimuli-responsive materials, bioimaging, sensing, biomedicine, packaging, and wastewater treatment has also been reviewed.

Abstract
Enhancing the redispersibility of dried colloidal particles to yield stable dispersions after rehydration is a persistent challenge in the sustainable processing of nanocelluloses due to hydrogen bonding-induced irreversible aggregation. Programming nanocelluloses, such as cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), with moieties that enable colloidal repulsion after rehydration may address this challenge and contribute to the United Nation (UN)'s sustainable development goals (SDGs) of urban development and sustainable living (SDGs 9 and 11) and cradle-to-cradle processing (SDG 12). We hypothesize that imparting electrosteric repulsion to CNC via polyanionic disordered cellulose chains (hairs) protruding from each end may render the dried nanocrystals highly redispersible in aqueous media. Anionic hairy CNC (AHCNC), that is, CNC decorated with dicarboxylated cellulose (DCC) chains, were synthesized by the preferential, successive periodate/chlorite oxidation of the disordered regions of cellulose fibrils, bearing >5 mmol of carboxylate groups per gram. The colloidal properties of AHCNC were compared with those of sulfate half-ester group-functionalized CNC and TEMPO-oxidized CNC (TOCNC) after redispersion in aqueous media, followed by comparing the redispersibility of AHCNC and CNC in aqueous solutions containing monovalent or divalent cations and at varying pH. The AHCNC had remarkable aqueous redispersibility even at high ionic strengths and extreme pH. The unique redispersibility mechanism of dried AHCNC relies on the synergistic steric and electrostatic repulsion forces, recuperated upon the rehydration of DCC. This work may open new opportunities for more sustainable and cost-effective handling and processing of nanocelluloses.

Abstract
Naturally derived cellulose nanomaterials (CNMs) with desirable physicochemical properties have drawn tremendous attention for their versatile applications in a broad range of fields. More recently, Janus amphiphilic cellulose nanomaterial particles with asymmetric structures (i.e., reducing and nonreducing ends and crystalline and amorphous domains) have been in the spotlight, offering a rich and sophisticated toolbox for Janus nanomaterials. With careful surface and interfacial engineering, Janus CNM particles have demonstrated great potential as surface modifiers, emulsifiers, stabilizers, compatibilizers, and dispersants in emulsions, nanocomposites, and suspensions. Naturally derived Janus CNM particles offer a fascinating opportunity for scaling up the production of self-standing Janus CNM membranes. Nevertheless, most Janus CNM membranes to date are constructed by asymmetric fabrication or asymmetric modification without considering the Janus traits of CNM particles. More future research should focus on the self-assembly of Janus CNM particles into bulk self-standing Janus CNM membranes to enable more straightforward and sustainable approaches for Janus membranes. This review explores the fabrication, structure-property relationship, and Janus configuration mechanisms of Janus CNM particles and membranes. Janus CNM membranes are highlighted for their versatile applications in liquid, thermal, and light management. This review also highlights the significant advances and future perspectives in the construction and application of sustainable Janus CNM particles and membranes.

Abstract
We designed three types of hollow-shaped porous silica materials via a three-step biotemplate-directed method: porous hollow silica nanorods, hollow dendritic fibrous nanostructured silica (DFNS), and ultraporous sponge-like DFNS. The first step was making a biotemplate, for which we used cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), consisting of rod-shaped nanoparticles synthesized by conventional acid hydrolysis of cellulose fibers. In a second step, core-shell samples were prepared using CNC particles as hard template by two procedures. In the first one, core-shell CNC-silica nanoparticles were synthesized by a polycondensation reaction, which exclusively took place at the surface of the CNCs. In the second procedure, a typical synthesis of DFNS was conducted in a bicontinuous microemulsion with the assistance of additives. DFNS was assembled on the surface of the CNCs, giving rise to core-shell CNC-DFNS structures. Finally, all of the silica-coated CNC composites were calcined, during which the CNC was removed from the core and hollow structures were formed. These materials are very lightweight and highly porous. All three structures were tested as nanocarriers for drug delivery and absorbents for dye removal applications. Dye removal results showed that they can adsorb methylene blue efficiently, with ultraporous sponge-like DFNS showing the highest adsorption capacity, followed by hollow DFNS and hollow silica nanorods. Furthermore, breast cancer cells show a lower cell viability when exposed to doxorubicin-loaded hollow silica nanorods compared with control or doxorubicin cultures, suggesting that the loaded nanorod has a greater anticancer effect than free doxorubicin.

Abstract
Native plant cellulose has an intrinsic supramolecular structure. Consequently, it can be isolated as nanocellulose species, which can be utilized as building blocks for renewable nanomaterials. The structure of cellulose also permits its end-wise modification, i.e., chemical reactions exclusively on one end of a cellulose chain or a nanocellulose particle. The premises for end-wise modification have been known for decades. Nevertheless, different approaches for the reactions have emerged only recently, because of formidable synthetic and analytical challenges associated with the issue, including the adverse reactivity of the cellulose reducing end and the low abundance of newly introduced functionalities. This Review gives a full account of the scientific underpinnings and challenges related to end-wise modification of cellulose nanocrystals. Furthermore, we present how the chemical modification of cellulose nanocrystal ends may be applied to directed assembly, resulting in numerous possibilities for the construction of new materials, such as responsive liquid crystal templates and composites with tailored interactions.

Abstract
In the effort toward sustainable advanced functional materials, nanocelluloses have attracted extensive recent attention. Nanocelluloses range from rod-like highly crystalline cellulose nanocrystals to longer and more entangled cellulose nanofibers, earlier denoted also as microfibrillated celluloses and bacterial cellulose. In recent years, they have spurred research toward a wide range of applications, ranging from nanocomposites, viscosity modifiers, films, barrier layers, fibers, structural color, gels, aerogels and foams, and energy applications, until filtering membranes, to name a few. Still, nanocelluloses continue to show surprisingly high challenges to master their interactions and tailorability to allow well-controlled assemblies for functional materials. Rather than trying to review the already extensive nanocellulose literature at large, here selected aspects of the recent progress are the focus. Water interactions, which are central for processing for the functional properties, are discussed first. Then advanced hybrid gels toward (multi)stimuli responses, shape-memory materials, self-healing, adhesion and gluing, biological scaffolding, and forensic applications are discussed. Finally, composite fibers are discussed, as well as nanocellulose as a strategy for improvement of photosynthesis-based chemicals production. In summary, selected perspectives toward new directions for sustainable high-tech functional materials science based on nanocelluloses are described.

Abstract
Different from traditional chemical surface modification, localized modification of the reducing end groups of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), i.e. the active aldehyde groups, provides new opportunities for diverse functional applications of this renewable nanomaterial without altering its surface chemistry and properties. Numerous reviews have deeply discussed the surface modification of the hydroxyl groups of CNCs, but no critical comment has been reported on the reducing end modification approach. This review is a comprehensive summary on the modification of the CNC reducing end, presenting the reaction mechanisms and conditions, discussing the different chemical modification strategies and characterization techniques, potential applications and future challenges in this field. In addition, the comparison between surface and end modification strategies of CNCs will highlight the potential of reducing end-functionalized CNCs to be used in various applications as an alternative to traditional surface-modified CNCs, or as additional functional nanoparticles for the design of advanced functional materials.

Abstract
As the most abundant biopolymer on the earth, cellulose has recently gained significant attention in the development of antibacterial biomaterials. Biodegradability, renewability, strong mechanical properties, tunable aspect ratio, and low density offer tremendous possibilities for the use of cellulose in various fields. Owing to the high number of reactive groups (i.e., hydroxyl groups) on the cellulose surface, it can be readily functionalized with various functional groups, such as aldehydes, carboxylic acids, and amines, leading to diverse properties. In addition, the ease of surface modification of cellulose expands the range of compounds which can be grafted onto its structure, such as proteins, polymers, metal nanoparticles, and antibiotics. There are many studies in which cellulose nano-/microfibrils and nanocrystals are used as a support for antibacterial agents. However, little is known about the relationship between cellulose chemical surface modification and its antibacterial activity or biocompatibility. In this study, we have summarized various techniques for surface modifications of cellulose nanostructures and its derivatives along with their antibacterial and biocompatibility behavior to develop non-leaching and durable antibacterial materials. Despite the high effectiveness of surface-modified cellulosic antibacterial materials, more studies on their mechanism of action, the relationship between their properties and their effectivity, and more in vivo studies are required.

Abstract
We present here the grafting of thermoresponsive polyetheramines at the reducing ends of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) using a two-step protocol involving an end carboxylation followed by a peptide coupling with the primary amine moiety of the polyetheramine. In aqueous suspensions these end-modified CNCs became associated by their derivatized tips when the temperature was raised past a lower critical solution temperature (LCST), above which these polyetheramines are known to collapse and become hydrophobic. The CNC association was reversible when the temperature was lowered and the phenomenon of association/disassociation was totally reproducible in repeated temperature cycles as followed by dynamic light scattering (DLS). Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) data revealed the presence of grafted chains with an extended conformation and showed the assembly of modified CNCs into swollen aggregates in suspension at T > LCST. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images confirmed that the once dispersed derivatized CNCs at low temperature became associated through their reducing ends above the LCST. At such temperatures, these modified CNCs attached themselves in a remarkable fashion, forming the arms of regular four-, five-, or six-branched stars.

Abstract
In this work, we take advantage of the parallel organization of cellulose chains in cellulose I yielding an inherent chemical asymmetry of cellulose nanocrystals, i.e., reducing vs nonreducing end, to selectively modify only one end of these rigid rodlike crystals to be used as a linking point for the formation of supramolecular structures. We have prepared biotin-functionalized tunicate cellulose nanocrystals at the reducing end capable of forming new complex supramolecular hierarchies by the addition of the protein streptavidin. Biotin-streptavidin coupling was chosen because streptavidin has a multivalency of four and the biotin-streptavidin bond is known to be highly selective and stable. Hence, streptavidin molecules would link up to four cellulose nanocrystals through their biotin-modified reducing end. Two biotin derivatives were studied, consisting of an anchoring group, i.e., amine or hydrazine; the biotin moiety; and the linker between them. Results show that the length of the linker significantly affects the bond between the biotinylated cellulose nanocrystals and streptavidin, and a certain chain length is necessary for the supramolecular assembly of several cellulose nanocrystals by streptavidin.

Abstract
A series of novel heterocyclic polymers with fluorescent brightening properties are synthesized via Click polymerization. Fast synthesis of poly-1,2,3-triazoles (M n ≥ 9.31 kDa) is described herein, with a high yield of up to 95%. The Click polymerization approach has a number of advantages, including facile operation and outstanding isolation yield. The resultant polymers have a high thermal stability, excellent UV resistance, as well as acid and light fastness. On embedding with optical brightening agents, the polymers display strong fluorescent brightening properties in the tetrahydrofuran solution. Moreover, these products have a strong solution emission intensity and extraordinary photostability under UV light.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have secured such a promising role in today's life that imagining the modern world without them is almost impossible. A large fraction of nanomaterials is synthesized from environmentally-dangerous elements such as heavy metals, which have posed serious side-effects to ecosystems. Despite numerous advantages of synthetic nanomaterials, issues such as renewability, sustainability, biocompatibility, and cost efficiency have drawn significant attention towards natural products such as cellulose-based nanomaterials. Within the past decade, nanocelluloses, most remarkably nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) and nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC), have successfully been used for a wide spectrum of applications spanning from nanocomposites, packaging, and mechanical and rheological property modifications, to chemical catalysis and organic templating. Yet, there has been little effort to introduce fundamentally new polysaccharide-based nanomaterials. We have been able to develop the first kind of cellulose-based nanoparticles bearing both crystalline and amorphous regions. These nanoparticles comprise a crystalline body, similar to conventional NCC, but with polymer chains protruding from both ends; therefore, these particles are called hairy cellulose nanocrystalloids (HCNC). In this article, we touch on the philosophy of HCNC synthesis, the striking superiority over existing nanocelluloses, and applications of this novel class of nanocelluloses. We hope that the emergence of hairy cellulose nanocrystalloids extends the frontiers of sustainable, green nanotechnology.
