  • BACTERIAL DERIVED NANOCELLULOSE TEXTILE MATERIAL
    Publication number: 20240337047
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to an oil-infused bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) material including a porous body comprising a three-dimensional network of bacterial nanocellulose fibers defining a plurality of interconnected pores; and, an oil infused within the plurality of pores. The present disclosure additionally describes a method of preparing an oil-infused BNC material that incudes fermenting bacteria to form a porous body of bacterial nanocellulose fibers having a three-dimensional network defining a plurality of interconnected pores; mechanically pressing the porous body; dehydrating the porous body; and infusing the porous body with an oil infusion fluid including an oil so as to entrap the oil in the pores of the porous body forming an oil-infused BNC material.
