Isolation of cellulose nanofibrils from dia pungens ...
The 1 % (w/v) aqueous dispersion of T. pungens bleached pulp was treated using a batch configuration of a laboratory scale high energy ball mill (LabStar Laboratory agitator bead mill, Netzsch, Selb/Bavaria). The dispersion of bleached pulp was milled at 25 °C, with 0.4 mm balls for 0.5–3 h at milling speeds of 1000 and 3000 rpm.
