The invention discloses a
cellulose nanosheet material. The thickness and the transverse size of the
cellulose nanosheet material can be both adjusted and controlled, the thickness is 1-100 nm, the transverse size is 0.1-30 [mu] m, more than 80% of the
cellulose nanosheet material is a single layer, the thickness of the single layer is 4 nm+ / -1 nm, in addition, the cellulose nanosheet material is smooth in surface, and the AFM (Atomic Force
Microscope) measurement shows that the fluctuation of the surface is within 0.1 nm. The invention further discloses a preparation method of the cellulose nanosheet material. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, performing mixed
grinding on a cellulosic material and a lyophobic material so as to gradually separate cellulose into flakes, and further performing
ultrasonic dispersion and separation to remove the lyophobic material, thereby obtaining the cellulose nanosheet material. The cellulose nanosheet material disclosed by the invention is of a layered, orientated and
crystal structure, and is high in polydispersity in transverse size and morphology.
