“The project with Lenzing has shown that efficient processing of cellulose fibers on knitting machines is possible by using the right fibers and the right spinning process. We are currently working on ...

Researchers at VTT, Finland, have been able to transmit light through an optical fiber based on a wood derivative. The fiber, which is made of cellulose, is best suited for sensors that could benefit ...

Researchers at the University of Maine and the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are ...

Global custom engineered thermoplastics compounder RTP Company has unveiled the latest addition to its Eco Solutions product portfolio with a new line of custom cellulose fiber reinforced ...

The world's first thousand-ton-scale ionic liquid-based regenerated cellulose fiber project has officially commenced operations in Henan Province, China. Developed by the Institute of Process ...

Aptly called the Kyoto Process after the Kyoto University laboratory in Japan where the research is taking place, the process aims to reduce the cost of producing vehicles while making them lighter ...

Celwise’s patented tooling, machines and processes transform wood fiber into water-resistant packaging and products that are recyclable, renewable and biodegradable A key part of Celwise’s production ...

Researchers have revealed a new molecular mechanism by which bacteria adhere to cellulose fibers in the human gut. Thanks to two different binding modes, they can withstand the shear forces in the ...

Citrus fiber – a byproduct of the juicing process – has properties that make it an appealing alternative to methyl cellulose (in combination with agar, native starch, and psyllium) as a binder in ...

VTT researchers were able to transmit light in wood-based fibre. Optical fibre made of cellulose is best suited for sensors that benefit from the biodegradability of the material. In the future, ...
