Aerogel is a novel functional material consists of fibers scaffold and air, without water or any other solvent. Pure nanocellulose aerogel has numerous unique characteristics but it normally combined with inorganic materials to overcome its undesired drawbacks such as the high water absorption and poor mechanical properties, which favour the microbial colonization in its surfaces. The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize cellulose nano fibers (CNFs) from kenaf bast fibers using supercritical carbon dioxide (Sc.CO2) and investigate its role of Sc.CO2 in enhancing the properties of CNFs. The study also aim to fabricate and characterize antibacterial CNFs/chitosan aerogels, cross-linking the isolated CNFs with chitosan and loading the aerogel with cinnamon essential oil as the main antibacterial agent.
