Functional nanocellulose containing carboxylic acid ester, amides, and amino acids for pharmaceutical applications such as drug delivery or protein purification has been prepared using surface modification. By modifying process, inexpensive modified nanocellulose adhesive to hydrophobic polypropylene has been prepared and would be useful as a reinforcing agent for polymer composites and as a filtering agent to remove organic pollutants (POPs) such as persistent organic compounds in water treatments.

Amphiphilic Modified Nanocellulose is a crysatlline nanocellulose adhesive to hydrophobic poly(olefins) so it would be useful as a reinforcing agent in polymer composites as well as in removing persitent organic pollutants (POPs). It is an effective emulsifying agent but its function is generally pH dependent.
