High-Strength Antibacterial Chitosan–Cellulose Nanocrystal Composite Tissue Paper
Langmuir, 35(1), 104–112.
Contributors: P. Tyagi n , R. Mathew n, C. Opperman n, H. Jameel n, R. Gonzalez n , L. Lucia n , M. Hubbe n, n
MeSH headings : Anti-Bacterial Agents / chemistry; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Bacteria / drug effects; Cellulose / chemistry; Cellulose / pharmacology; Chitosan / chemistry; Chitosan / pharmacology; Flexural Strength; Humans; Nanocomposites / chemistry; Nanoparticles / chemistry; Paper; Water / chemistry
TL;DR:
This "self-disinfecting" bactericidal tissue has the potential to be one of the most innovative products for the hygiene industry because it can dry, clean, and resist the infection of surfaces simultaneously, providing significant societal benefits.

Nanocellulose-based multilayer barrier coatings for gas, oil, and grease resistance
Carbohydrate Polymers, 206, 281–288.
author keywords: Cellulose nanocrystals; Cellulose nanofibers; Fluorochemicals; Multilayer coatings; Barrier coatings; Oil and grease resistance; Oxygen transmission rate
TL;DR:
This work demonstrates a unique composite barrier coating system of CNF and CNC that synergistically enables oil and grease resistance comparable to fluorochemicals and demonstrates a significant increase in air resistance and reduction in oxygen transmission rate compared to uncoated paper.

Relationship between human perception of softness and instrument measurements
BioResources, 14(1), 780–795.
Contributors: Y. Wang n, T. De Assis n, F. Zambrano n, n , R. Venditti n , S. Dasmohapatra n, J. Pawlak n , R. Gonzalez n
author keywords: Formation; Tissue softness analyzer; Softness; Bath tissue; TS7; Panel test
TL;DR:
Among all of the algorithms available for use with the TSA, the TP2 algorithm most accurately predicted the panel scores, and the TSA performed better in predicting the softness of the samples that were dried with a conventional wet press or creped-through air-dryer.

Unique thermo-responsivity and tunable optical performance of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-cellulose nanocrystal hydrogel films
Carbohydrate Polymers, 208, 495–503.
author keywords: Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide); Cellulose nanocrystals; Hydrogels; Thermal responsive; Transparency
TL;DR:
A hybrid materials system to modulate lower critical solution temperature (LCST) and moisture content for thermo-responsivity and optical tunability was strategically developed by incorporating cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) into a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm) hydrogel matrix.
