Tunable structuring of nanocellulose-based sustainable lubricants by an external electric field by Samuel D. Fernández-Silva, Miguel A. Delgado, María García-Pérez, Claudia Roman, Moisés García-Morales

“…The highest pre-shear yielded a structural break which, under the action of an electric voltage, enabled the formation of a different structural conformation when pre-shear halted, in comparison with the lowest pre-shear. Such event led to a notorious reduction in both storage and loss moduli, mainly at the lowest electric field intensities.…”
