Fibers of this category are first suspended in propanol, which prevents rapid dissolution, and are subsequently intermixed thoroughly. As longer fibers typically arrange themselves according to the ...

Geometry often plays a central role in fiber performance across various applications. Shape factors such as length (for example, the longest size of the fiber), width (for example, the shortest size ...

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, ...

Wood is made up of a cellulose matrix of fibril bundles, which are made of smaller elements known as microfibrils. The crystalline nature of cellulose microfibrils are maintained through processes of ...
