The depleting global resources call for measures to enable efficient and circular manufacturing and use of materials. BIOMASS 2.0 project upgrades plant fibers, a renewable and abundant natural resource, for functionality via establishing a modification platform that is based on cations that can translate their functionality to the fibres. The method has a tremendous sustainability potential: only small amounts of the reagents are needed, that can be recycled, and water is the reaction media. BIOMASS 2.0 thrives for sustainable materials horizon and is committed to provide sustainable solutions for innovations in, e.g. electronics, sensing, and diagnostics. Applications are also envisaged towards water purification and in biomass fractionation.
