A simple method for preparing redispersible nanofibers from sugar beet residue and their use as a well-dispersed reinforcement for a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix is reported. It is known that the redispersion of dried cellulose nanofibers is difficult because of the formation of strong hydrogen bonds between the nanofibers. The results show that the properties of the initial sugar beet nanofiber suspension can be recovered without the use of chemical modification or additives with higher pectin and hemicellulose content. Undried and redispersed nanofibers with and without pectin were used as nanocomposite reinforcement with PVA. The redispersed nanofibers were as good reinforcements as the undried nanofibers. The tensile strength and elastic modulus of the nanocomposites with the redispersed sugar beet nanofibers were as good as those of the nanocomposites with undried nanofibers. Interestingly, the nanofiber dispersion in the PVA matrix was better when sugar beet nanofibers containing pectin and hemicellulose were used as reinforcements.
