Polyethylene-cellulose biocomposites were synthesized here via the ethylene polymerization with metallocene as a catalyst along with methylaluminoxane (MAO) as a cocatalyst. The immobilization method in which the catalyst or cocatalyst is fixed onto the catalytic filler (cellulose) can be classified into 3 methods according to the active components fixed onto the filler surface: 1) only metallocene catalyst (Cellulose/Zr), 2) only MAO cocatalyst (Cellulose/MAO) and 3) mixture of metallocene and MAO (Cellulose/(Zr+MAO)).

Abstract:
Environmental concerns and cost reduction have encouraged the use of natural fillers as reinforcement in polymer composites. Currently, a wide variety of reinforcement, such as natural fibers and nanocellulose, are used for this purpose. Composite materials with natural fillers have not only met the environmental appeal, but also contribute to developing low-density materials with improved properties. The production of natural fillers is unlimited around the world, and many species are still to be discovered. Their processing is considered beneficial since the natural fillers do not cause corr

The research on cellulose fiber-reinforced nanocomposites has increased by an unprecedented magnitude over the past few years due to its wide application range and low production cost.

The PU/CNC nanocomposites were characterized by SEM, XRD, FTIR, mechanical and barrier properties. SEM confirmed homogeneous dispersion of CNCs in polyurethane matrix with small agglomerates at certain places. Improvement in mechanical properties was observed as compared

In this work, the surface of pine wood used as a filler in polypropylene/wood composites was successfully modified by the mercerization process. It is a very significant process because it removes low-molecular components, which improves interactions between the filler and matrix and leads to a better dispersion of the filler in the matrix. Unfortunately chemical treatment may affect nucleation of the lignocellulosic filler. On the basis of XRD results, the transformation of native cellulose I to cellulose II was observed.

Cellulose is the most abundant biomass material in nature. Due to their abundance, high strength and stiffness, low weight and biodegradability, cellulose materials serve as promising candidates for bio-composites production. Extracted from natural fibres, its hierarchical and multi-level organization allows different kinds of cellulosic fillers to be obtained; microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and cellulose nanowhiskers (CNW). Because of the high aspect ratio and nanoscopic size, CNW has shown to be an effective reinforcement to many polymers. The use of CNW as reinforcements in nanocomposites
