Scientists recorded 24 hours of the cellular construction process, revealing surprising new details about how plant cell ...

When manufacturing cellulose-based products, challenges, such as the high melting point of cellulose, make it impossible for it to be melted without decomposition. Thus, shaping cellulose materials ...

Multiple research teams across the globe have developed biodegradable packaging materials built from plant fibers, producing films and papers that rival the mechanical strength of petroleum-based ...

Three-dimensional (3D) printing has a significant role in membrane production for water purification and bio-separation, with capacity to create new and cleverly designed structures. The researchers ...

Last week two women scientists explained how plants build the cellulose membranes that form cell walls, a process of vital interest to textile technologists. Unable to see how plants manufacture their ...

Using cellulose nanofibers from wood, researchers have made paper that can be tuned using a slow heat treatment to be effective semiconductors, some almost as conductive as metals (ACS Nano 2022, DOI: ...

With the launch of the EU-funded project CELLAGRI, Fraunhofer FEP has taken on the coordination of the development of innovative cellulose-based mulch films with water management structures inspired ...
