The Cellulose Nanocrystals (CNC) pilot plant can produce kilogram quantities of CNC from any fibres with high alpha-cellulose content. Regardless of cellulose feedstock, the pilot plant can produce CNC in various final forms, including spray-dried powder or in suspension at various concentrations.
CT imaging technology provides a very consistent, non-intrusive, and safe method of viewing the internals of the scanned samples. While a lot of information can be discovered about the sample from other tests, obtaining images of the internal characteristics of samples are often key to obtaining a comprehensive understanding.
