Influence of cellulose nanocrystal addition on the production and characterization of bacterial nanocellulose

Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is characterized by high purity and excellent mechanical properties; however, its production is constrained by low yield. Therefore, efforts aimed at improving its yield and material properties are imperative. This study investigated the effect of adding different concentrations (0%, 0.5%, and 1.0%) of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) in Hestrin-Schramm modified medium on the yield and properties of BNC produced by Komagataeibacter sp. SFCB22-18. The BNC yield increased as following an increase in added CNC concentration. Also, the morphology, structure, crystallinity, thermal stability, and mechanical properties of BNC improved after CNC incorporation. A low CNC concentration (0.1%) favored mechanical strength, whereas 0.5% gave the optimum morphology, structural, and thermal stability. These results showed that modifying BNC with CNC could help increase yield and improve its properties, and thus; the potentiality of BNC in various applications would be much enhanced.
