Chemical modification is an important route to tuning interactions between nanocellulose and its surrounding media. Specifically, it affects the wetting characteristics, which in turn affect water transport, moisture sensitivity, and liquid processability. Wetting at the nanoscale is difficult to…

Transparent wood was prepared by infiltrating delignified balsa templates with bio-based isobornyl acrylate (IBOA) and isobornyl methacrylate (IBOMA) matrices, including the corresponding homopolymers and three copolymer compositions. The formulations were compared in terms of refractive index,…

Previous research demonstrated that combining scratch testing with image-based techniques is a powerful approach for investigating scratch-induced damage mechanisms in untreated and PEG-impregnated wood. However, this methodology has not yet been applied to wood components of modular houses…

This work investigates the effects provided by polymeric carbon dots - synthesized on purpose - on the morphology, thermal and optical properties of UV-LED curable biobased coatings

This work demonstrates the possibility of preparing fully bio-based transparent woods.

Welcome on board! This is the first newsletter of AI-TranspWood project, specifically devoted to a periodical update of the project outcomes, aiming to disseminate them to a wider public. Each newsletter develops a particular topic that will be developed and implemented in the upcoming three-years, providing the readers with fresh and smart information and using a multidisciplinary approach.
