This study developed a strategy to produce cellulose nanofibril (CNF) composite films using lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) as a reinforcing agent. The results showed that LNPs with higher phenolic hydroxyl (Ph-OH) content greatly improved the mechanical properties and UV-blocking ability of the composite films. Similar enhanced properties were also observed when LNPs were added into polyvinyl alcohol.
Inspired by the lignin-cellulose network in natural wood, we developed a strategy to produce cellulose nanofibril (CNF) composite films using lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) with varied contents of phenolic hydroxyl (Ph-OH) groups as a reinforcing agent. Regulated LNPs with lower molecular weight, higher Ph-OH content, and uniform morphology were successfully prepared by phenolation and anti-solvent precipitation. CNFs mixed with phenolated LNPs of high Ph-OH content (8.23 mmol/g) exhibited a higher tensile strength (similar to 190 MPa), increased toughness (similar to 15 MJ/m(3)), and enhanced UV-blocking ability (similar to 99 %) compared to lignin-free CNFs and CNF composites with lower Ph-OH content. Thus, hydrogen bonds between Ph-OH groups on lignin and hydroxyl groups on CNFs are vital for enhancing the mechanical strength of composite films. Similar enhanced mechanical properties were found by adding phenolated LNPs into polyvinyl alcohol as a fortifier. This study provides novel insights into producing lignin-reinforced cellulose composite films with UV shielding, thermal stability, and biodegradability.
