New nanocomposites are processed with a plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) matrix reinforced by cellulose whiskers whose characteristics are a high aspect ratio and a large interface area. Dynamic mechanical analysis performed on samples reinforced with a filler fraction of up to 12.4 vol % gives the

## Abstract Films of high Young's modulus and low density are of interest for application as loudspeaker membranes. In the present study nanocomposite films were prepared from microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) and from MFC in combination with melamine formaldehyde (MF). The prepared materials were s
## Abstract This study investigates the feasibility of a novel nanocomposite (GC/Ag) of a genipinβcrosslinked chitosan (GC) film in which was embedded various amounts of Ag nanoparticles for woundβdressing applications. In situ UVβvis results revealed that adding chitosan solution did not affect th
