In line with the increasing demand for sustainable multifunctional materials, this study is intended to produce highly porous materials featuring extremely low densities - so called aerogels - using cellulose nanofibers extracted from renewable sources, such as the agricultural waste generated in sugarcane processing (bagasse). In an effort to provide the nanocellulose aerogels with antim…
The polymers used in packaging industry must fulfill barrier and mechanical properties that assure the conservation and acceptability of the packaged product. Because petroleum-derived polymers match those requirements and are cost-effective, they are the most applied. However, the rising environmental concerns encourage the development of eco-friendly alternatives, such as biodegradable …

This research falls within the current scenario involving sustainable and multifunctional materials. Overall, it deals with the controlled deconstruction of the hierarchical architecture of chitin into nanochitin (NCh), which merges the inherent features of pristine chitin (renewability, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and biological activity, to mention a few) and the peculiarities o…
