Enhanced High Thermal Conductivity Cellulose Filaments via Hydrodynamic Focusing pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

Our paper for true density of mercerized and regenerated celluloses has been recently pubilshed in Biomacromolecules! please check→pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

ICYMI! Wood-derived cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) have dent defects leading to further destruction such as kinking and fragmentation; we need to find a strategy for exploiting the full potential of CNFs! Tsuguyuki Saito Kayoko Kobayashi Tomoki Ito Kazuho Daicho 👇 pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…

木が持つ力を最大限に生かした、夢の新素材 #セルロースナノファイバー 。 その特性を活かして生み出された半導体、さらに人間の軟骨に近い構造を目指した人工軟骨も登場！ 最新研究に迫ります。 #サイエンスZERO #セルロースナノファイバー

link.springer.com/article/10.100… Our paper has been published! Enhancing the inter-CNF interaction increases crystallinity. We call this "crystallite fusion". Here we observe the change in crystallinity during CNF condensation to investigate the mechanism. Congrats, Yoshi! Please check↓

Visit to Stockholm University until 22 Nov〜

I had a great time! Nice visit. Thank you very much!

Really excited to be organizing the May 15 ACS on Campus symposium event here UTokyo | 東京大学 with Kyoko Nozaki Ryuhei Nakamura and Tsugu Saito. We have an amazing slate of speakers to discuss Sustainable Chemistry 🇯🇵🧪💚 Check it ➡️acsoncampus.acs.org/events/univers…

Open PhD position combining wood nanostructure, X-ray scattering and machine learning in my Biobased Materials Structure group group at Aalto University. Apply by May 31, 2024 here: aalto.fi/en/open-positi…

New: "Critical comment on the assumptions leading to 24-chain microfibrils in wood" rdcu.be/dIy1h Arising from rdcu.be/dIy1v "The number of cellulose chains included in an average cellulose microfibril in plant cell walls is still an unresolved topic..."

Happy to see this commentary published. Although we were not able to provide much answers to the actual question (how many chains in a wood microfibril), we thought it would be important to speak out and acknowledge the limitations of the methods. Hopefully it will be useful!

We had a great meeting at KTH〜🌲
