Nanocellulose is a strong, lightweight biomaterial ideal as a composite for 3D-printing structures such as sustainable housing and vehicle assemblies.
The method, leveraging a solvent of sodium hydroxide and urea in water, can significantly lower the production cost of nanocellulosic fiber.
The findings support the development of a circular bioeconomy in which renewable, biodegradable.
The team continues to pursue additional pathways for more cost-effective nanocellulose production, including new drying processes.
Follow-on research is expected to use simulations to also predict the best combination of nano cellulose and other polymers to create fiber-reinforced composites.
