Figure 2

The structure and crystal facets of cellulose II nanocrystals. (A) The geometry of six types of cellulose II nanocrystal models. 6A6, 6A12, 6A19, and 10A12 denote 6 × 6 × 6, 6 × 6 × 12, 6 × 6 × 19, and 10 × 10 × 12 the crystal models with the crystal facets \((\overline{{1}} \; {1}\; {2)}\), respectively. 6B12 and 6O12 are 6 × 6 × 12 crystal models with \((\overline{{2}} \; {2}\; {1)}\) and (0 0 1) as crystal facets respectively; (B) Three types of inclined crystal facets. (C) 6 × 6 and 10 × 10 are the chain numbers of the ab base plane projections.
