Abstract
Nanocellulose is produced from natural resources, such as plants and bacteria, by using artificial mechanical and chemical processes. Since it is made from natural resources, nanocellulose is environmentally friendly, biocompatible, and biodegradable and has low toxicity. In addition, it has high mechanical strength and elasticity and many other attractive properties for a variety of applications. However, it doesn’t have inherent antifouling properties. In this chapter, we analyze nanocellulose materials from the viewpoint of antifouling properties. We discuss the fundamental aspects needed for the analyses and introduce the concepts of antibacterial and antifouling properties. Then, some specific cases are provided. Finally, the antiviral property for nanocellulose materials is proposed for future investigations.
