P015_0595_ Nanocellulose as a carrier of active dyes

Abstract

The potential of nanocellulose consist in its modification possibilities. It can be modified easily by substances which can be chemically bounded with cellulosic -OH groups. Functionalized nanoparticles of cellulose can be used in nanocomposite area e.g. Presented work is focused on the preparation of nanocellulose and study the possibility of functionalization of nanoparticles with active compounds, such as dyes.
