Microcrystalline Cellulose Production from Pineapple Leaves and Crowns using Trifluoroacetic Acid
Pineapple leaves and crowns (PLC) have high cellulose contents of 74.50% and 51.20%, respectively, positioning them as promising sources to produce microcrystalline cellulose (MCC). This study examines the effect of hydrolysis time and acid concentration on MCC yield and crystallinity. Trifluoroacet...
