Wood-derived 1D nanomaterials provide breakthrough in 3D printing technologies

Researchers at Åbo Akademi University and University of Turku recently announced that they have developed a highly functional bioink that will make it possible to 3D print life-like bone tissue models. One small, but essential, part of this success was the introduction of phosphorylated cellulose nanofibrils derived from wood biomass into the mix.

Xiaoju Wang, Luyao Wang, and Qingbo Wang, all affiliated with MADNESS, were the main investigators in the research project.
