This proposal seeks to develop high-value latex polymer products using cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) which are sustainable nanoparticles derived from wood pulp with a strong Canadian presence. Latex polymers are used in a broad range of applications including coatings, adhesives, thin films, paints and rubbers. Specifically, we aim to use CNCs as a nanofiller or crosslinking agent in latex polymers. We hypothesize that the addition of CNCs will modify the microstructural properties of the latex and improve their overall performance.

该提案旨在使用纤维素纳米晶体（CNCs）开发高价值的乳胶聚合物产品，这些纳米晶体是来自加拿大木浆的可持续纳米颗粒。乳胶聚合物用于广泛的应用，包括涂料、粘合剂、薄膜、油漆和橡胶。具体而言，我们的目标是使用CNC作为乳胶聚合物中的纳米填料或交联剂。我们推测，添加CNCs将修改胶乳的微观结构特性，并提高其整体性能。
