STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS OF CELLULOSE – ALUMINOSILICATE COMPOSITE MATERIALS

The recent revival of research interest in the hydrothermal synthesis applied in the field of advanced materials has various causes. The expanding membership of the advanced material family and the increasing number of the preparation methods that result less harmful for the environment make this class of materials if obtained by hydrothermal way commercially interesting. Cellulose materials, used in this paper as the basic material, constitute a very important and promising research area for the development of higher value-added composite products due to the availability of this low-cost natural raw material. In the chemical modification of cellulose materials the main factors are hydroxyl groups which provide the crosslinking with the material that is used as a strengthened. The properties of the basic material usually determine the properties of the obtained composite materials as well as their advantages and limitations in application. This paper investigates the morphological characteristics of the surface of newly synthesized cellulose-aluminosilicate composite materials using FE-SEM, tensile strength and air permeability measurements according to the standardized methods.
