摘要

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have attracted much attention as a fillerphase for polymer nanocomposites due to their impressive mechanicalproperties, low cost, and environmental sustainability. Despite their promisefor this application, there are still numerous obstacles that prevent optimalperformance of CNC--polymer nanocomposites, such as poor filler dispersion andhigh levels of water absorption. One way to mitigate these negative effects isto modify CNC surfaces. Computational approaches can be utilized to obtain directinsight into the properties of modified CNC surfaces and probe the interactions ofCNCs with other materials to facilitate the experimental design of nanocomposites.We use atomistic grand-canonical Monte Carlo simulations to study how surfacemodification of ion-exchanged sulfated cellulose nanocrystals (Na-CNCs) impactswater adsorption. We find that methyl(triphenyl)phosphonium-exchanged CNCs adsorbless water than Na-CNCs at the same relative humidity, supporting recent experimentaldynamic vapor sorption measurements. By characterizing the distribution and configuration of water molecules near the modified CNC surfaces we determine how surface modifications disrupt CNC--water interactions.
