Sigma Defense has won a potential five-year, $102.5 million contract for engineering services in support of the Navy’s main program for continuous upgrades of networks onboard surface ships.

Researchers have now come up with a technique to turn cow manure into industrial-grade cellulose fibers, which are woven today to produce paper, textiles, and food packaging. Cellulose, a natural ...

Researchers at Virginia Tech have found a way to make biodegradable packaging stronger while using less energy in the process.

In a groundbreaking study on the synthesis of cellulose – a major constituent of all plant cell walls – a team of Rutgers University-New Brunswick researchers has captured images of the microscopic ...

As the global power industry evolves, transformer insulation systems face increasing challenges. The aging of cellulose insulation paper (cellulose-IP) at elevated temperatures significantly impacts ...

A Purdue University researcher has increased the strength and resilience of cement by integrating patent-pending chemically modified cellulose nanocrystals and nanofibers that he developed.

Due to their exceptional properties, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) have been proposed for various applications in sustainable materials science. However, state-of-the-art production methods suffer ...

This study investigated the interactions of cornstarch and cellulose during extrusion and their influence on expansion. Mixtures of starch with up to 70% cellulose were extruded, and raw and extruded ...
