The 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-oxyl (TEMPO) oxidation of cellulose, when mediated with Oxone<sup>®</sup> (KHSO<sub>5</sub>), can be performed simply and under mild conditions. Furthermore, the products of the reaction can be isolated into two major components: Oxone<sup>®</sup>-mediated TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanomaterials Form I and Form II (OTO-CNM Form I and Form II). This study focuses on the characterization of the properties of OTO-CNMs. Nanoparticle-sized cellulose fibers of 5 and 1 ...[more]
