Cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin form structures called microfibrils, which are organized into macrofibrils that mediate structural stability in the plant cell wall.

"This study also provides entirely new insights into how simple, basic physical mechanisms such as diffusion and self-organization may lead to the formation of complex cellulose networks in cells." ...

From a strong fundamental understanding of cellulose and wood structure, to the long experience gained through development of ionic liquids for cellulose processing, we have the tools for advanced ...

The process, which applies low-pressure cycles instead of traditional high-energy methods, enhances the internal structure of cellulose, improving gas barrier properties, mechanical strength ...
