Sansevieria zeylanica-Derived Nanocellulose as a Green Reinforcement for PVA Composite Films with Enhanced UV-Shielding and Mechanical Properties
Sansevieria zeylanica (Ceylon bowstring hemp) fibers were investigated as a sustainable source for nanocellulose synthesis. The fibers were subjected to sequential alkaline treatment and hydrogen peroxide bleaching, followed by sulfuric acid hydrolysis and neutralization. The resulting nanocellulose was incorporated in...
