Pulp cellulose

Chem-ARTS lab

This biomaterial research was trying to explored the potantial use of paper cellulose that has a huge resource in Finland. By adding different binding material (CMC, MFC, NFC, etc) and water insoluble substance (coffee grounds, lignin) with foaming and heating treatment, the new material is super light with insulated quality due to the polyporous structure. The whole substance is easy degradable.
