Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) peels waste being a potential cellulosic sources, were used for extracting cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), and characterized in the present study. Firstly, the cucumber peels were purified chemically through acid, alkali, and bleaching treatments for cellulose isolation. Later obtained cellulose was acid (60 wt% H2SO₄) hydrolyzed at 45 ℃ for 45 min to obtain CNC45 suspension, and again 10 min sonicated for CNC45-S10 suspension. The effect of sonication on the particle size of CNC45, and CNC45-S10 were investigate
