Abstract
A nanocellulose composition produced from a cotton-rich textile product is disclosed. The nanocellulose composition comprises a nanocellulose content of 2% to 99% by weight of the nanocellulose composition, a synthetic fiber content of 0.001% to 3% by weight of the nanocellulose composition, and a mineral content of less than 9% by weight of the nanocellulose composition. An average particle size of the nanocellulose composition is in a range of 1 nanometer (nm) to 250 nanometers (nm). A caloric value of the nanocellulose composition is in a range of 100 kilojoules (kJ) to 1803 kilojoules (kJ) or 20 kilocalories (kcal) to 360 kilocalories (kcal)/100 grams (g). Applications of the nanocellulose composition are also disclosed.
