Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• 63.00 ± 2.00% CNC yield achieved from waste paper towels. • Crystallinity increased from 68.80 ± 0.40% to 82.20 ± 0.50% after selective removal of amorphous contents. • CNC showed high thermal stability with Tmax at 372.00 °C. • XPS confirmed removal of CaCO3-rich surface additives and no detectable surface Cr. • One-pot Cr3+ catalysis avoided strong mineral-acid hydrolysis and multistep processing.
