High resolution Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectra can be obtained for rigid solids by combining Cross Polarization (CP) with Magic Angle Spinning (MAS). One unique analysis at RISE is the ability to measure the specific surface area of cellulose in water swollen state. The method utilizes solid state CP-MAS NMR spectroscopy. The supra-molecular structure of wood fiber wall cellulose affects material properties as diverse as chemical reactivity and mechanical strength.
Treesearch aims at creating a national platform to support the research on new materials from the forest. Research projects conducted within Treesearch research areas and the researchers who are active in these projects are welcome to join the platform.
