Introduction to CNF Industrialization

CELLULOSE NANOFIBER
What is Circular Cellulose Nanofiber (CNF) Industrialization?
It refers to the process of materializing biomass-based cellulose nanofiber (CNF) and utilizing it as a key material across industries such as automotive, energy, electronics, and consumer goods, to promote the transition to a circular industrial structure and make all stages of industrial activity (production, consumption, disposal, reuse) more eco-friendly and low-carbon.
