1 Nanocellulose materials - Preparation, properties, uses The Finnish Centre of Nanocellulosic Technologies Timo M. Koskinen, UPM-Kymmene Ltd, Pia Qvintus, Anne- Christine Ritschkoff, Tekla Tammelin & Jaakko Pere, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland 1
2 Pulp & paper industry after year 2000 Paper production Energy costs increase Shortage of wood and all fibre Economy of scale in paper products does not work any more, especially in Europe Capital intensive industry difficult to be flexible Sensitive to economical fluctuation Business environment Shift to more added value paper products is no more competitive approach in Europe and in North America Overcapacity and low prices in Europe Increase in demand and increase in production outside Central Europe: low prices and less export from Europe Conclusion Completely new initiatives are needed 2
3 Present Research on micro / nano fibrillated cellulose (MFC / NFC) and cellulose nano crystals (CNC) has gradually increased since year Today there is on-going all over the world a substantial amount of research on nano cellulose.
4 Nanocellulose research groups SunPap EU-project, (nanocellulose as a driver) SustainComp EU-project (nanocellulose included) KTH, L Berglund, T Lindström, Sweden Univ. of Kyoto, Yano & al, Japan Univ. of Tokyo, Isogai & al, Japan Univ. of North Carolina & PennState University, U.S.A. EMPA, Switzerland ArboraNano, Paprican, Canada Agenda 2020 (2 parts: biorefinery & nanocellose), U.S.A. Other groups in Sweden, Germany, Norway, etc.
5 European vs. North American approach Europe: Focus on NFC/MFC Long fibrils Amorphous and crystalline parts both in fibrils Mechanical process, or chemimechanical No self assembly Strongly shear thinning - rheology depends on the manufacturing process N.A. - Focus on CNC Whiskers short Crystalline Chemical process Acid hydrolysis Self assembly possible Defined rheology
6 The Finnish Centre for Nanocellulosic technologies Est. March 2008 Combines the competencies of Aalto University School of Science and Technology, VTT and UPM: Profound and cross-disciplinary basic research Multi-technological applied research and high level project administration Product development and techno-economical expertise Sets up a project portfolio which addresses production technology, physical and chemical modification, characterization and novel applications. Combines capabilities and resources to create and govern of needed versatile IPR. Annual volume ca. 40 person years 5 M. 6
7 Nanocellulose New innovations for the forest sector Overall objectives To develop technoeconomically feasible, industrial scale manufacturing techniques for mass production of cellulose nanomaterials To generate new markets for (ligno)cellulosic raw material and renew the potential of existing products Added value from nanocellulose Increased functionality, improved mechanical properties, novel optical and conductivity properties, light weight high performance structures Novel forest based products Breakthroughs 7
