[45]). It was observed that with the gradual processing stages, the impurities such as hemicellulose and lignin were removed, and the relatively pure cellulose material with the chemical structure of natural cellulose was obtained. However, in this study, these peaks are observed to be separated after ball milling, which shows that the high-energy ball milling is able to effectively peel off hemicellulose and lignin around cellulose to further purify the extracted cellulose. This is owing to the effective removal of ash, grease, and non-cellulose entities on the surface of cellulose during the extraction process, thus, exposing the cellulose material inside the raw sample.
