3. Nanocellulose: terms and typology

The term nanocellulose refers to cellulose nanoparticles extracted from natural fibers . Extraction of these nanoparticles is based on destructuring the fibers using a strategy known as "top-down", exploiting their structural hierarchy.

The term "nano" refers to any particle with at least one dimension smaller than 100 nm.

There are two main methods for destructuring nanoparticles: chemical and mechanical, leading to nanoparticles with different morphologies...
