Recently, cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) have been developed as biomass industrial materials. CNFs have already been applied to applications such as sensor technology, cosmetics, catalysis, energy production, water remediation, near-paper industry, petroleum industry and applications, and medicine. This interpretive article focuses on the research trends of concentrated CNF moldings,which are CNF-rich gel and plastic materials. In this interpretive article, the author especially shows the recent research topics related to concentrated CNF moldings in tribological fields.
