Cellulose-based triboelectric filters for airborne particles (Tribofilter)

The project aims to design and investigate a novel cellulose-based filter material with high particle retention and low-pressure drop based on triboelectric effect. The  developed material is thought to act as a self-charging electrofilter that retains polluting  particles harmful to humans.Air pollution caused by particulate matters (PMs) has raised serious concerns due to their threats

Molecularly designed cellulose materials for triboelectric applications

Cellulose films possesses favorable triboelectric properties otherwise only found in synthetic, oil-based polymer materials. This can open up entirely new possibilities within the area of internet-of-things (IoT), which is expected to grow significantly in the coming decades. Cheap and sustainable sensor devices based on renewable, self-electrified systems without the need of batteries, self-powered by insignificant

Native cellulose’s interplay in materials and dispersions (CELLO)

This project supported by the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet) focus on native cellulose´s interplay in materials and dispersions. The overall aim is to study and explain the intra- and intermolecular interactions of cellulose which occur during dissolution, in dispersions and in the regeneration of novel nanobiocomposite materials.
