A combination of plant-based particles and water forms an 'eco-glue'

In a study published in Advanced Materials, researchers at Aalto University, the University of Tokyo, Sichuan University and the University of British Columbia have demonstrated that plant-derived cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) can form an adhesive that fully integrates the concepts of sustainability, performance and cost, which are generally extremely challenging to achieve simultaneously.
