Comparison of Nanocellulose Obtained from Pineapple [Ananas comosus] and Mango [Mangifera indica] Residues

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This study compares the properties of nanocellulose derived from agro-industrial residues of pineapple [Ananas comosus] and mango [Mangifera indica]. Through alkaline pretreatment and acid hydrolysis, cellulose nanofibers were isolated and characterized via XRD, TGA, and SEM. The results revealed superior thermal stability and crystallinity in pineapple-derived nanocellulose, while mango-derived samples showed greater fragmentation and surface roughness. These findings suggest differentiated applications, with pineapple nanocellulose better suited for high-temperature and structural uses.
