Abstract

An environmentally benign approach for the manufacture of maleic anhydride functionalized cellulose nanocrystals (MA-CNCs) via one-pot tandem reactions with H2SO4 as a catalyst under organic solvent-free conditions was put forward. The effects of ball milling time, ultrasonication temperature and time on the yield and degree of substitution (DS) have been explored.
