Applications
From coatings and inks to new-energy materials: nanocellulose application guides for 17 industries
01
Coatings & Inks
In water-based coatings and inks nanocellulose builds a micro/nano fibre network that improves thickening, thixotropy, suspension and anti-settling, while helping coating uniformity and system stability. Surface-modified grades also serve pigment dispersion and functional coatings.

02
Adhesives & Binders
With a high specific surface area and rich surface groups, nanocellulose takes part in interfacial bonding, rheology control and structural reinforcement of adhesive systems. In wood, paper, glass and composite bonding it acts as a bio-based functional component that improves bond-line stability and overall performance.

08
Water Treatment & Adsorption
With a high specific surface area and a readily functionalised surface, nanocellulose captures and separates target substances through carboxyl, cationic or hydrophobic modification. Applicable to heavy metals, dyes, suspended pollutants and oil-water separation.

Understand the development trends in nanocellulose-reinforced composites, with a focus on the reinforcement mechanisms, interfacial interactions, and application prospects of CNC and CNF in polymers, bio-based composites, rubber, coatings, and construction materials.
Development Trends in Bio-Based Barrier Materials
Against the backdrop of sustainable packaging development, the use of cellulose and other bio-based polymers to construct high-barrier materials has emerged as an important area of research. The dense networks formed by nanocellulose can help create longer and more tortuous pathways for gas diffusion, making nanocellulose a promising material for enhancing oxygen and other gas barrier performance.
Research and Application Directions of Nanocellulose-Based Hydrogels
Nanocellulose possesses abundant surface hydroxyl groups, a high specific surface area, and a strong ability to construct three-dimensional networks, enabling it to form functional hydrogels either independently or in combination with other polymers. Current research is increasingly focused on the regulation of mechanical properties, functional loading, stimuli-responsive behavior, and applications in biomedical materials, flexible materials, adsorption, agriculture, and related fields.
