Nanocellulose-based hydrogels are a hot topic in biomimetic materials,biomedical engineering and tissue engineering due to their advantages of reproducibility,good biocompatibility and excellent mechanical properties.The structure of nanocellulose is one of the important factors affecting the properties of hydrogels.Due to its high aspect ratio,excellent mechanical properties and unique birefringence effect,nanocellulose has attracted wide attention in the preparation of anisotropic hydrogels.Based on its structural characteristics,nanocellulose is very suitable as the orientation frame of anisotropic hydrogels,which can effectively improve the mechanical,mass transfer and optical properties of hydrogels in specific directions.The composite gel has very high mechanical strength in orientation and exhibits unique birefringence properties.In terms of mass transfer,the composite gel has a controllable mass transfer pathway.All this has led to the development of biomimetic materials that mimic natural skin,muscle and cartilage.However,to develop high strength and specific functional nanocellulose based hydrogels,effective utilization of the structure and physical and chemical properties of nanocellulose is still an urgent problem to be solved.In recent years,many scholars have focused on the construction of anisotropic nanocellulo-based hydrogels with directional structure,so as to expand their application fields.In order to effectively utilize the structure characteristics of nanocellulose and prepare high-strength and multi-functional nanocellulose-based hydrogels,this study reviews the research progress of anisotropic nanocellulose-based hydrogels in recent years from the perspectives of preparation methods,properties and application fields.Firstly,the bottom-up and top-down preparation methods of anisotropic nanocellulose-based hydrogels were systematically summarized.Among them,the common bottom-up method includes the force induced orientation method,shear flow orientation method,electromagnetic orientation method,ice template orientation method,etc.,while the top-down method mostly uses the natural cellulose skeleton orientation method.Secondly,the excellent properties of anisotropic nanocellulose-based hydrogels,such as extremely high mechanical strength,unique birefringence optical properties,controllable mass transfer pathway,anisotropic conductivity and anisotropic thermal conductivity,are described.In addition,the applications of anisotropic nanocellulose-based hydrogels in the fields of machinery,display,sensing and biomedicine are introduced in detail.Finally,according to the research progress of anisotropic nanocellulose-based hydrogels and combined with its own scientific research practice,this study proposes that the future research directions of anisotropic nanocellulose-based hydrogels are to explore low-cost and simple new preparation methods,improve its versatility and develop its predictable constitutive models for fabricating anisotropic cellulose-based hydrogels.
