Apart from being the Nanocellulose; planet’s predominant natural polymer, it also offers a variety of features including excellent bio- Extraction; compatibility, lower density, substantial strength and the most beneficial mechanical characteristics, Processing; inexpensive in cost. Applying the mechanical or chemical techniques, cellulosic materials are trans- Composites; formed into cellulose nanofibres (CNFs) and even cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). These CNFs and Properties and application CNCs exhibit excellent capabilities in comparison with native cellulose fibre. Nowadays, nanocel- lulose is being used in a variety of practical applications such as product packaging, papers as well as paperboard, food
