Abstract
Nanocellulose based materials recently grabbed attention of many researchers due to its versatile properties such as high surface area, high mechanical strength, nano dimension, and its compatibility with different polymers. The present work demonstrates, the study on coating of Viscose fibre by Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and their effect on surface, tensile strength, dye-ability and frictional properties of fibres. It is observed that coating of viscose fibre by CNCs, led to increase in tensile strength without affecting frictional attribute and dye-ability. The conditioned and wet tenacity of fibre increased by 16 and 13% respectively, for 2% CNC coated viscose fibre compare to reference viscose fibre. While maintain the elongation. The coating of viscose fibre by CNCs presumably helps to cover micro-gaps on fibre surface and thus reducing crack propagation. This hypothesis is supported by microscopic observation of coated and un-coated viscose fibre surface, which showed rough surface for CNC coated fibre. Additionally, it was observed that strong adhesion of CNCs with viscose fibre results in a durable coating due to hydrogen bonding. The skin core analysis of coated and uncoated fibre indicated difference in dyeing of highly crystalline (skin) and less crystalline (core) structure of fibre. The thickness of skin increased with increasing the CNC coating of viscose fibre. Overall, the CNC coated viscose fibre showed improved properties as compared to reference viscose fibre.
