Abstract

The existence abundant of cellulose in nature has drawn much attention from both academia and industry in recent years due to its specific properties such as biodegradability, thermal and chemical stability. In the past few years, nanocellulose aerogel, which possesses extremely low density, large open pores, and a high specific surface area, has been discovered by researchers as new polymer materials. In this review, basic important information about nanocellulose aerogel will be introduced such as the properties of the nanocellulose and its application in producing nanocellulose aerogel based on the previous research studies.
