Regenerated cellulose/halloysite nanotube nanocomposite films prepared with an ionic liquid
Novel nanocomposite films based on regenerated cellulose/halloysite nanotube (RC/HNT) have been prepared using an environmentally friendly ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMIMCl). The structural, morphological, thermal and mechanical properties of the RC/HNT nanocomposites were in...
