Cellulose is one of the most abundant natural polymer materials on earth
which can be divided into two types: plant cellulose and bacterial cellulose. Bacterial cellulose has higher purity and better performance than plant cellulose. As a natural renewable polymer material
bacterial cellulose has attracted much attention in recent years due to its porous nano network structure
high degree of polymerization
high purity
high crystallinity
excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility. This review will introduce the main methods of preparation of bacterial cellulose
summarize several modification methods of bacterial cellulose
and introduce some latest applications of bacterial cellulose with examples. Hope this article can provide reference for related research.
