Summary

Introduction

The cellulose is the most abundant polymer on the Earth. It is possible to isolate the cellulose to get a material with at least one dimension in the nanoscale that is known as the nanocellulose. There are many approaches to extract it. They are such as the chemical one, the enzymatic one or even the mechanical one [5]. There are, e.g., the cellulose nanoparticles, nanofibrils, nanofibers, nanostructures, nanocrystals, whiskers, among others [5,6,7,8]. The term nanocellulose is the most general in the area, and it embraces all the possible variations.
