Synthesis parameters are of utmost importance for controlling the particle sizes of cellulose beads. This study aims to investigate the effects of synthesis parameters e.g., stirring speed (250–1250 rpm), surfactant concentrations (0.5–6.0% w/v), cellulose concentrations (1–5% w/v), and reaction tem...
