Finding new sources of cellulose fibres

About

By testing lignocelluloses biomass as alternative sources of raw material we evaluate the possibilities for their use as raw materials or additives in production of paper, textile and composite materials. We perform preliminary tests for determination of the content of cellulose in different plant material and other sources of fibres and evaluate the possibilities for processing and use. On laboratory formed paper we test their mechanical and physical properties.
