Abstract
Due to the wide range of available raw materials and excellent biocompatibility, all-cellulose composites (ACCs) have received significant attention as a kind of renewable and biodegradable candidate to replace petroleum-based synthetic polymers. However, most current research of ACCs is limited to film and bulk materials. Herein, we present a simple, efficient, and scalable welding method for obtaining green, self-reinforced, high performance all-cellulose composite yarns by partially dissolving and regenerating cellulose yarns with phosphoric acid. The in-situ core-shell structure of the welded yarn results in improved strength (134.6 MPa), friction resistance (8000 cycles), moisture regain (11.89 %), and dyeing properties. Moreover, the regeneration and drying procedure can be optimized to further enhance the strength (190.5 MPa) of the welded yarn. This straightforward welding approach provides a promising and convenient route for manufacturing high-performance bio-based yarn.
