Nanocellulose, 1st Edition, published by Woodhead Publishing, is a reference work that presents a detailed review of nanocellulose-reinforced biocomposites, focusing directly on processing methods, physical properties, and material performance. Designed for academic researchers, chemists, and materials scientists, the book establishes foundational principles for sustainable material development.

The text covers fundamental technical principles, including nanocellulose anatomy, morphological characterization, isolation, and extraction procedures. It documents chemical modification and functionalization techniques across varied bio-based feedstocks, incorporating specific research on seaweed-based nanocellulose, microalgae, and palm oil biomass derived from oil palm empty fruit bunches.

A defining feature of the book is a dedicated chapter analyzing the global nanocellulose industry market value alongside its environmental contributions. Co-edited by S. M. Sapuan, a professor of composite materials at Universiti Putra Malaysia, this volume guides industrial R&D personnel, engineers, and manufacturers applying these components in structural, electronic, biomedical, and oral health care sectors.
