Despite being non-surface active, nanocelluloses position efficiently at interfaces, already at very low concentration. This behavior has lately triggered a strong interest in the cellulose and colloids communities. This review reports the recent developments on the use of nanocelluloses at interfaces and highlights the fundamental principles governing the high efficiency observed in reinforcing the boundary between two phases. The use of nanocelluloses as emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer is first discussed, and the structural properties of nanocelluloses such as aspect ratio and surface properties are correlated with the high efficiency in forming colloidally-stable multiphase systems. Then, the behavior at the air/water interface is presented and the most recent advances are reviewed with focus on the surface free energy of nanocelluloses and their role in the interfacial self-assembly process.

Current Opinion in Colloid & Interface Science

Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal focused on the science related to interfaces and on the behavior of colloids and amphiphiles (surfactants, polar lipids, polymers and biopolymers) in solution.
The journal also encompasses molecular and nanoscopic aspects of materials science, industrial applications of colloids, and biologically-relevant systems. COCIS is not a primary journal; rather it seeks to guide the researcher through the maze of current published literature, and to highlight areas and papers which, in the opinion of the reviewers, are of special interest and significance.
Topics covered include: Theories and Simulations, Microscopy Methods, NMR, X-ray and Neutron Scattering, Surface Analysis Techniques, Emulsions and Microemulsions, Liquid Crystals, Thin Films and Foams, Polyelectrolytes, Reactivity in Colloidal Systems and at Interfaces, Surfactants, Food Colloids, Biological Colloids and Interfaces, Colloidal Dispersions, Self Assembly, Drug Delivery, Electrokinetics, Rheology, and, Wetting and Spreading.
