Fig. 1

a WAXS pattern from bamboo cellulose using Cu Kα radiation. The fibre axis is vertical. b Microfibril orientation from the azimuthal distribution of the 200 reflection. Dotted lines show fitted wide and narrow components. c Background-corrected equatorial reflections. d Plot of integral width δq against q 2 d for the principal equatorial reflections. The integral widths of the 1–10 and 110 reflections lie well above the line projected through the integral widths of the 200 and 400 reflections
