Professor Ying-Chih Liao from the Department of Chemical Engineering at National Taiwan University has published a study in the Chemical Engineering Journal, presenting fully biodegradable food ...

The purpose of having both TOCNs and CNCs is to replicate the crystalline and amorphous cellulose elements of wood-based cellulose. This ink was printed from a syringe head (SDS-60) installed in a ...

Sustainably produced, biodegradable materials are an important focus of modern materials science. However, when working with natural materials such as cellulose, lignin or chitin, researchers face a ...

Cellulose is a natural polymer discovered in 1838 by French ... nanocellulose fibers are suitable for crafting flexible electronic elements like electrodes and transistors. When incorporated into ...

"I chose cellulose as a research object because of its natural origin and favourable properties: its biocompatibility and degradability, variety of chemical strains, and wide range of applications ...

Intriguingly, patches made from plant-produced cellulose did not have the same effect. A chemical analysis revealed that the bacterial cellulose contained plant hormones, probably produced by the ...

Cellulose, one of the most abundant organic ... The Virginia Tech team set out to change that by using a physical rather than chemical treatment to strengthen the material. The process, which ...
