Cationic surfactants as a non-covalent linker for oxidised cellulose nanofibrils and starch-based hydrogels

Abstract

Rheological properties of hydrogels composed of TEMPO-oxidised cellulose nanofibrils (OCNF)-starch in the presence of cationic surfactants were investigated. The cationic surfactants dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were used to trigger gelation of OCNF at around 5mM surfactant. As OCNF and DTAB/CTAB are oppositely charged, an electrostatic attraction is suggested to explain the gelation mechanism. OCNF (1 wt%) and soluble starch (0.5 and 1 wt%) were blended to prepare hydrogels, where the addition of starch to the OCNF resulted in a higher storage modulus. Starch polymers were suggested to form networks with cellulose nanofibrils. The stiffness and viscosity of OCNF-Starch hydrogels were enhanced further by the addition of cationic surfactants (5mM of DTAB/CTAB). ζ -potential and amylose-iodine complex analyses were also conducted to confirm surface charge and interaction of OCNF-starch-surfactant in order to provide an in-depth understanding of the surfactant-induced gel networks.
