Cellulose Nanofibers
Cellulose
occurs abundantly and naturally as raw material on Earth amounting billions of
tons made by many different plant species. Technically, cellulose is a cheap,
light-weight, thermally stable organic compound and one of the most common
agents to meet the standards of sustainable chemistry since it is naturally
biodegradable as well as renewable. Within plants, cellulose fibers are
produced by microfibrils that are highly crystalline entity.Introduction In the past years,

Explained Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Single-walled
carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are one-dimensional allotropes of carbon atoms with
sp2 hybridization prepared by rolling graphene sheets up to adopt a
tubular morphology. In general, one, two or more rolls of graphene sheets are
known as single- (SWCNTs), double- (DWCVTs) and multi-walled graphene nanotubes
(MWCNTs), respectively.Technically, single-walled carbon nanotubes have found
applications in various fields of science, technology, new-age nanoelectroic
devices and ind
