    and the effects of CNF dosage on the tensile strength, elastic modulus, and elongation at break of CP/CNF and CP/CNF/ZIF-67 are shown in Fig. 3 and Tables S1–S4. As shown in Fig. 3(A) and Table S1, the tensile strength, elastic modulus, and elongation at break of neat CP is 7.37 MPa, 996 MPa, and 3.07%, respectively. After coating and crosslinking with CNFs, the mechanical properties of CP/CNF significantly improved. In particular, the tensile strength and elastic modulus of the CP/CNF…
