Atomic-scale dents on cellulose nanofibers: the origin of diverse defects in sustainable fibrillar materials

Abstract

Atomic-scale dent structures on the surfaces of cellulose nanofibers were detected by comparing the experimentally measured and computer-simulated widths of single nanofibers. These dent parts constituted at least 30–40% of the total length of the dispersed nanofibers, and deep dents induced the kinking and fragmentation of nanofibers.
