Claims13
A polymer complex comprising microcellulose fibers;
- and a polymer matrix,
- wherein the microcellulose fibers comprise nanofibrils and fine particles, and the microcellulose fibers are fibrillated by growth of the fine particles on the microcellulose fibers,
- wherein the nanofibrils are bonded to a surface of the microcellulose fibers, and the fine particles are bonded to the nanofibrils and bonded to the surface and inside of the microcellulose fibers,
- wherein the microcellulose fibers have a minor axis diameter of 1 μm to 30 μm, and the nanofibrils have a minor axis diameter of 10 nm to 400 nm, and
- wherein the fine particles are particles with a minor axis diameter of 0.01 μm to 10 μm.
