Grafting Nature‐Inspired and Bio‐Based Phenolic Esters onto Cellulose Nanocrystals Gives Biomaterials with Photostable Anti‐UV Properties

Abstract

Invited for this month's cover is the international collaborative work from the Bioresource Processing Research Institute of Australia (BioPRIA)-Monash University and URD Agro-Biotechnologies Industrielles (ABI)-AgroParisTech. The cover image shows how the grafting of Nature-inspired and bio-based phenolic esters on cellulose nanocrystals through click-chemistry provides materials with highly photostable UV-blocking properties.
