Global Market for Nanocellulose 2022: Focus on Cellulose Nanocrystals (CNC), Cellulose Nanofibers (CNF) and Bacterial Nanocellulose (BNC)

DUBLIN, March 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Global Market for Nanocellulose 2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global nanocellulose (NC) market has accelerated over the last few years as producers in Japan and to a lesser extent, North America and Europe bring products to market. The development of these remarkable materials has compelled major paper and pulp producers to gravitate their traditional business towards advanced biorefineries, which have met with initial success and resulted in production capacity increases.

Three types of NC are commercially available: cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), cellulose nanofibers (CNF), and bacterial nanocellulose (BNC). In addition to being produced in different ways, these three types also vary in their physicochemical properties, from size to crystallinity. The most commercially produced NC is CNF, which is produced on a large scale in Japan and on the pilot-scale

These bio-based materials are abundant, renewable and inexpensive but are extremely strong, durable, lightweight, non-toxic and are lower cost than other advanced materials and nanomaterials. Used as a materials additive and in composites, nanocellulose will help to drive the global move away from oil-based plastics and products to sustainable, bio-based alternatives.

Nanocellulose (NC) can be derived from a multitude of abundant cellulosic biomass sources such as wood pulp, agricultural crops, organic waste, as well as from bacteria. Properties including high tensile strength, biocompatibility, and high aspect ratio make it attractive to a wide range of markets, from medical to construction to aerospace. As nanocellulose originates from renewable matter, its potential to replace petroleum-derived materials in films, coatings, composites, and packaging are particularly interesting in the wake of current political and societal movements towards the reduction of plastic consumption.

Most of the NC being developed for commercial purposes is in the form of CNF. Currently, many NC-based applications are at an early stage, with some applications already commercially available, mainly in Japan.
