Superparamagnetic cellulose fiber networks via nanocomposite functionalization
Abstract
We present a simple and cost-effective method for rendering networks of cellulose fibers, such as paper, fabrics or membranes, superparamagnetic by impregnating the individual fibers with a reactive acrylic monomer. The cellulose fibers are wetted by a cyanoacrylate monomer solution containing superparamagnetic manganese ferrite colloidal
