Abstract

To convert the traditional cellulose material into functional and smart materials, a series of procedures involved modification or functionalization of cellulose have been developed. By integrating nanoparticles or other functional materials, the cellulose-based materials can achieve tailored properties such as electrical conductivity, magnetic properties, photosensitivity, catalytic activity, sensing ability, and other special properties. The fabrication processes, properties, and applications of the recently reported cellulose-based functional materials are summarized in this chapter.
