Article Abstract
In this study, wet-spun filaments were prepared using lignocellulose nanofibril (LCNF), with 6.0% and 13.0% of hemicellulose and lignin, respectively, holocellulose nanofibril (HCNF), with 37% hemicellulose, and nearly purified-cellulose nanofibril (NP-CNF) through wet-disk milling followed by high-pressure homogenization. The diameter was observed to increase in the order of NP-CNF ≤ HCNF < LCNF. The removal of lignin improved the defibrillation efficiency, thus increasing the specific surface area and filtration time. All samples showed the typical X-ray diffraction pattern of cellulose I. The orientation of CNFs in the wet-spun filaments was observed to increase at a low concentration of CNF suspensions and high spinning rate. The increase in the CNF orientation improved the tensile strength and elastic modulus of the wet-spun filaments. The tensile strength of the wet-spun filaments decreased in the order of HCNF > NP-CNF > LCNF.

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) prepared through acid hydrolysis, were incorporated in alginate (AG) to fabricate AG/CNC filaments by wet spinning and Ca-induced gelation, with the effects of CNC loading and draw ratio on filament properties investigated. Higher CNC loadings resulted in increasingly flat ribbon-like filament cross-sections, whereas draw ratio did not have a significant impact on morphology. Increasing the loading of CNCs from 0 to 70 wt% reduced the linear density of the filaments and increased the orientation factor of the CNCs within the filament.

Polyelectrolyte-based ionic-junction fibers newly serve as signal transmission and translation media between electronic devices and biological systems, facilitating ion transport within organic matrices. In this work, we fabricated gel filaments of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) chelated with Cu(II) ions through wet-spinning, using a saturated coagulant of CuSO. Interestingly, the as-spun fibers exhibited dramatic 3D porous frameworks that varied with the temperature and precursor concentration.

Alginate, categorized as a natural-based biodegradable polymer, stands out for its inherently exclusive properties. Although this unique polymer is widely processed using film, coating, and membrane technologies for different usage areas, textile applications are still limited. This study aims to compile promising approaches that will pave the way for the use of wet-spun alginate filaments in textile applications.

This study introduces a new, facile method to synthesize silver clusters from aqueous silver ion solution by using high intensity femtosecond pulse laser irradiation. The particles obtained in the absence of reducing or capping agents are 1-17 nm in size and presented quantum properties, as characterized by fluorescence, but did not exhibit plasmon signals, which is not a common characteristic of conventional silver nanoparticles. In a further development, small silver quantum clusters (∼1 nm) were bound to wet-spun filaments of cellulose nanofibrils by pulsed laser irradiation.
