Abstract
Cellulose nanofibers were modified by TiO2 gel layer (~25 nm in thickness) via hydrolysis reaction on the surface of the cellulose nanofibers. After the TiO2 coating, the surface charge of the nanofiber dramatically changed from negative to positive. A high efficiency (~100%) of capturing negatively charged Au nanoparticles (5 nm) was successfully obtained by effectively utilizing the electrostatic interaction of surface charge between the TiO2-coated cellulose nanofibers and Au nanoparticles. Therefore, this technique of surface modification will be potentially used in improving filtration efficiency for membrane applications.
