Macro-size regenerated cellulose fibres (RCFs) with embedded graphene oxide (GO) were fabricated by dissolving cellulose in a pre-cooled sodium hydroxide (NaOH)/urea solution and regenerated in sulphuric acid (H2SO4) coagulant. Initially, GO was found to disperse well in the cellulose solution due to intercalation with the cellulose; however, this cellulose-GO intercalation was disturbed during the regeneration process, causing agglomeration of GO in the RCF mixture. Agglomerated GO was confirmed at a higher GO content under a Dino-Lite microscope. The crystallinity index (CrI) and thermal properties of the RCFs increased with increasing GO loadings, up to 2 wt.%, and reduced thereafter. Cellulose-GO intercalation was observed at lower GO concentrations, which enhanced the crystallinity and thermal properties of the RCF-GO composite. It was shown that the GO exhibited antibacterial properties in the RCF-GO composite, with the highest bacterial inhibition against E. coli and S. aureus.
