Abstract
Most attempts to emulate the mechanical properties of strong and tough natural composites using helicoidal films of wood-derived cellulose nanocrystals (w-CNCs) fall short in mechanical performance due to the limited shear transfer ability between the w-CNCs. This shortcoming is ascribed to the small w-CNC-w-CNC overlap lengths that lower the shear transfer efficiency. Herein, we present a simple strategy to fabricate superior helicoidal CNC...
