摘要: Provided are a polylactide-grafted cellulose nanofiber that is suitable as a molding material, and a production method thereof. A polylactide-grafted cellulose nanofiber includes grafted cellulose having a graft chain bonding to cellulose constituting a cellulose nanofiber, wherein the graft chain is a polylactide, and a ratio of an absorbance derived from C═O of the polylactide to an absorbance derived from O—H of the cellulose on an infrared absorption spectrum is no less than 0.01 and no greater than 1,000. In addition, a production method of a polylactide-grafted cellulose nanofiber includes carrying out graft polymerization of a lactide to cellulose constituting a cellulose nanofiber in the presence of an organic polymerization catalyst which includes an amine and a salt obtained by reacting the amine with an acid. As the organic polymerization catalyst, 4-dimethylaminopyridine and 4-dimethylaminopyridinium triflate are preferred.

摘要: Fibrous cellulose highly capable of reinforcing resins, fibrous cellulose composite resins with high strength, and a method for preparing fibrous cellulose highly capable of reinforcing resins. The fibrous cellulose has an average fiber width of ≥0.1 μm, and has hydroxyl groups partially/fully substituted with carbamate groups at the substitution rate of ≥1.0 mmol/g, and has an average fiber length of >0.10 mm. This fibrous cellulose and a resin are contained in the composite resin. The method includes heat treating a cellulose raw material and urea or derivatives thereof to substitute part/all of the hydroxyl groups in the cellulose raw material with carbamate groups, and defibrating the raw material into an average fiber width of ≥0.1 μm, wherein the heat treating is performed so that the rate of carbamate-group-substitution is ≥1.0 mmol/g and an average fiber length of the material is >0.10 mm.
