ABSTRACT: There are many opportunities for development and use of cellulosic nanomaterials, sustainably made from renewable raw materials. Significant challenges in manufacturing and application are being overcome. The Agenda 2020 Technology Alliance has issued a technology roadmap identifying key research challenges in a number of priority areas. The purpose of the roadmap is to seek the engagement of researchers and the support of partners to execute the identified research needs to accelerate commercialization. New research funding opportunities are identified. In addition to the research challenges, there are communications needs that must also be addressed, and public-private partnerships that must be executed.
