Abstract
This book chapter explores the potential applications and challenges of nanocellulose-based nanocomposites loaded with both metal nanoparticles (NPs) and carbon nanomaterials. Nanocellulose is a promising material that can be obtained from various cellulosic resources and has unique properties that make it a suitable substrate for loading metal and carbon NPs. The resulting nanocomposites have excellent mechanical, thermal, and optical properties, making them ideal for a wide range of applications such as sensors, antimicrobials, energy storage, water treatment, and bioelectronics. It also discusses the challenges associated with fabricating and characterizing nanocellulose-based nanocomposites loaded with both metal NPs and carbon nanomaterials, along with potential solutions to address these challenges. Finally, it highlights future research directions to advance the development and utilization of these innovative nanocomposite materials in various applications.
