Progress towards a more robust series of applications for lignin could mean new sources of carbon fiber raw materials. #lignin #carbonfiber #fossilfree
Carbon Fibers from Lignin–Cellulose Precursors: Effect of Carbonization Conditions
The report focuses on four key areas for achieving this transition: partnerships, policy, financing, and technology. Each cluster has adopted a balanced set of targets and strategies to engage with communities, companies, and government entities, all with the goal of creating a sustainable and economically viable business model for decarbonization.
