Nanocellulose Challenges and Opportunities: End User Perspectives

 

     

By Jack Miller


The report was developed to explore the commercial and technical challenges holding end users back from full commercialization of cellulose nanomaterial (CNM) and provide the viewpoint of end users and potential end users. Opportunities and challenges are explored with recommendations for producers based on:

• 2017 survey of 40 nanocellulose end users, including executive interviews
• End User Panel discussions at 2017 and 2018 International Conference on Nanotechnology for Renewable Materials in Montreal

The identity of interview respondents is confidential, but represented North America, Europe, Asia, South America, and the Middle East and includes:

• Head of Innovation, specialty chemicals company
• Product Development Scientist, oil and gas drilling company
• Director, Business Development, materials company
• CEO, bio-based chemicals company
• Packaging Director, leading paperboard producer
• Vice President, chemical trading company
• CEO, biopolymer processing company

Featuring a Bonus Appendix with highlights from the End User Panel at the 2018 International Conference on Nanotechnology for Renewable Materials.
