Abstract

Nanocellulose has the characteristic that it is five times stronger than steel and 1/5 light. Utilizing its characteristics, the development of high-strength materials by combining with plastics has attracted attention. However, if it sticks to nano size, practical materialization becomes difficult. We are developing technologies that produce nanocellulose from various raw materials by various methods and clarifying the characteristics of nanocellulose that is optimal for the purpose of use. As application development, we are currently aiming to apply it to a wide range of fields from daily necessities to functional foods.
