An efficient and low-cost approach to preparing CNFs with succinic acid hydrolysis and NaClO 2 oxidation is explored. High-temperature-short-time hydrolysis can depolymerize the cellulose, whereas the dispersibility of the CNFs is hugely enhanced by NaClO 2 oxidation under alkaline condition. The degradation of cellulose in succinic acid hydrolysis follows first-order reaction kinetics and is severely influenced by the hydrolysis temperature, moreover, the molecular chains of the cellulose are seriously cracked under the optimized condition. The NaClO 2 oxidation greatly improves the zeta potential (−36.2 mV) and the dispersibility of the CNFs. The obtained CNFs have an ultimate yield of 94.6%, and the diameter distribution is mainly within 20–40 nm. In addition, some amount of carboxyl groups in the cellulose will be instead of the hydroxyl groups , and the crystallinity of the CNFs is significantly increased.

Bio-based aerogel has become an attractive sorbent for spilled oil and organic pollutants because of its light weight, high porosity and strong sorption capacity. However, the current fabrication process is mainly "bottom-up" technology , which is cost-expensive, time-consuming, and energy-intensive. Herein, we report a top-down, green, efficient and selective sorbent prepared from corn stalk pith (CSP) using the deep eutectic solvent (DES) treatment, followed by TEMPO/NaClO/NaClO 2 oxidization and microfibrillation, and then hexamethyldisilazane coating. Such chemical treatments selectively removed lignin and hemicellulose, broke the thin cell walls of natural CSP, forming an aligned porous structure with capillary channels. The resultant aerogels had a density of 29.3 mg/g, a porosity of 98.13%, and a water contact angle of 130.5 ◦ , exhibiting excellent oil/organic solvents sorption performance, with a high sorption capacity in the range of 25.4–36.5 g/g, approximately 5–16-fold higher than CSP, and with fast absorption speed and good reusability.
