- Abstract
The effect of the time process of enzymatic hydrolysis on nanocellulose properties - the aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of enzymatic hydrolysis time on the properties of obtained nanocellulose. Two cellulose materials were tested as a raw material for nanocellulose production in the experiment: Avicel and Whatman. The cellulolytic enzyme obtained from the fungus Trichoderma reesei was used to carry out the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction. Enzymatic hydrolysis was performed on cellulose using the reaction times of 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 hours. In order to characterize the obtained materials, the following analyses were used: infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and dynamic light scattering. The recorded results showed that cellulose after enzymatic hydrolysis showed similar parameters (particle size, XRD patterns and degree of crystallinity) after all the applied reaction times.
