Modification of cellulose for paper making application

Cellulose is the most abundant polysaccharide in nature; its renewability, sustainability, and biodegradability have brought cellulose more and more attentions all over the world. In particular, they have been acknowledged as having huge potential in pulp and paper technology. It is also possible to modify them using various modification techniques in order to expand the […]

Biobased barriers on packaging substrates

The PhD project in chemical engineering will use wood-pulp fibres, modified cellulosic materials, dewatering and drying as well as computational fluid dynamics, mass transfer models, rheological characterization of complex fluids and renewable packaging solutions. The studies will involve experimental work as well as calculations and modelling of the barrier performance. The research focus of the
