3 Introduction
4 Bio-based materials The demand to increase the sustainability of material is driving a new concepts in the design and fabrication of materials. - Cellulose, All-cellulose, and Green nano-composites However, physical and mechanical properties of the materials often change significantly with environmental factors. - Bio-based materials by moisture content - Synthetic materials by temperature changes Characterization techniques and analytical modeling methods are needed to engineer advanced cellulose composites to ensure long-term structural integrity over the design life-time.
5 Dimensional instability of paper Instability of paper to surrounding environmental factors affects the paper quality. - In-plane deformations (cockling, misregister) - Out-of-plane deformations (curl, roughening, fiber-rising) Papermaking fiber is a complicated biocomposite and its hygroexpansivity is correlated with paper.

10 Motivation The present work was motivated by the need to understand the response of nano-scale cellulosic fibers to changes in environmental conditions (relative humidity). The fiber s behavior is important for engineering bio-based materials (paper, natural composites, and nano-composites).
11 Objectives To develop a well-characterized method for the metrological imaging (length, width, height, and cross sectional area) of cellulose aggregate fibrils under varying relative humidity conditions. To take account of AFM instrument parameter, the effect of probe/surface convolutions, and actual surface topographical characteristics.

21 Results & Discussion
22 Comparison of analysis techniques 2µm 102 nm Grating Mean area (nm 2 x 1000), Mean height (nm) Manual-100 RFA-100 RFA-400 Area Height Width Mean width (μm) Manual-100 & RFA-100 (4 µm 2.5 µm) RFA- 400 (4 µm 10 µm) Dimensions of 1D-grating standard were well characterized based on the RFA technique
23 Effect of image pre-processing 20 nm 20 nm 102 nm 500 nm A B C D nm Scan area (10 µm 10 µm) was most effective to apply the baseline correction
24 Effect of scan area Mean area (nm 2 x 1000), Mean height (nm) Area Height Width 20 nm 102nm 500 nm Mean width (μm) 0 TGZ01 TGZ02 TGZ02* TGZ03* 4 μm X 4 μm 10 μm X 10 μm The scan area with 10 µm 10 µm was selected to evaluate other scanning parameter 0.0
25 Effect of scan rate nm grating, 10 µm 10 µm (scan area) Height (nm) Area (μm 2 x 1000) Area Width Height Width (μm) Scan rate (Hz) Scan rate has a significantly impact on the dimensions of the step feature.
26 Effect of setpoint ratio Fixed drive amplitude (0.187 V), Three setpoints (0.15, 0.375, 0.5 V) Height (nm) Area (nm 2 x 1000) Area Width Height Width (μm) Setpoint ratio (A setpoint /A 0 ) A decrease in the setpoint ratio (hard tapping) resulted in a substantial decrease in the measured dimensions compared to higher setpoint ratio (soft tapping).
27 Effect of setpoint ratio Three drive amplitude (0.14, 0.187, 0.3 V), fixed setpoint (50% damping) Height (nm) Area (nm 2 x 1000) Area Width Height Width (μm) Setpoint ratio (A setpoint /A 0 ) Drive amplitude (0.25 value) and setpoint (50% damping) were closest to the nominal step height.
28 Dimensions of CAF with optimized scanning parameters Mean area (nm 2 x 1000) Setpoint ratio Setpoint ratio Area Width Height Mean width (μm) Mean height (nm) Each fresh engagement - 10 µm 10 µm - 1 Hz, 400 resolutions , 50% damping - 50 % RH, 23 C A B C D E Trials Variations over five engagements were 12 nm 2 in area (2 %), 10 nm in height (3 %), and 5 nm in width (0.2%).

30 Dimensional changes of CAF Mean area (nm 2 x 1000) RH (%) Start FC (1) FD (2) FC (3) FD (4) FC (5) FD (6) FC (7) FD (8) R 2 = Mean height (nm) RH (%) Start FC (1) FD (2) FC (3) FD (4) FC (5) FD (6) FC (7) FD (8) R 2 =0.65 Area and height are found to increase with increase in relative humidity, Such changes are expected due to the hygro-scopic nature of cellulose.
31 Dimensional changes of CAF Mean width (μm) Start FC (1) FD (2) FC (3) FD (4) FC (5) FD (6) FC (7) FD (8) R 2 =0.16 Mean length (μm) Start FC (1) FD (2) FC (3) FD (4) FC (5) FD (6) FC (7) FD (8) R 2 = RH (%) RH (%) Unexpectedly, the length of the CAF was found to shrink as the relative humidity increased.

33 Conclusions
34 Scan rate and dampening were found to significantly affect measured dimensions. Variations attributed to experimental error in the height, width, and area were less than 3 %. Changes in the width of the CAF were not correlated with changes in the RH, while changes in the height and area of the CAF were positively correlated with the RH. The CAF showed reduced swelling in the width, which may be attributed to the attachment of the CAF to the glass slide.
35 The length of the CAF exhibited negative longitudinal hygro-expansion coefficient (reduce in length as RH increased). This could be attributed to the simple conservation of volume of the CAF as it undergoes a strain, or to the specific arrangement of cellulose chains within the CAF. CAF exhibit unexpected hygro-expansion properties, which must be carefully considered when engineering composite materials.
