SANS of bamboo cellulose, hydrated to varying extents with D2O. a Two-dimensional scattering pattern at 25 % D2O. The fibre axis is vertical. b Radial distribution of equatorial SANS intensity as a function of D2O content, with small-angle Bragg peak in the region of q = 2 nm−1. c Effect of hydration with D2O on the d-spacing between microfibrils, calculated from the q value of the Bragg peak
