Spherical Cellulose: Regeneration, Applications, and Technological Challenges

This book examines the processing, applications, sustainability considerations, and challenges of spherical cellulose across a range of sizes. It also explores cellulose solvents; functional modifications of spherical morphologies; regeneration into spherical structures; and size-dependent applications. Specifically, it:

Summarizes current research and advances in identifying natural and biocompatible alternatives to synthetic plastics and other potentially carcinogenic materials. Covers fundamental and applied knowledge of the sustainable, renewable biopolymer cellulose and its various forms. Explains methods for regenerating cellulose into spherical forms of varying sizes to achieve application-specific performance. Describes new, eco-friendly approaches to producing regenerated cellulose materials and assesses their technical feasibility and economic viability. Discusses ecosystem remediation through pollutant removal.

This book is intended for researchers and graduate students in cellulose science, nanotechnology, and materials science.
