Description of Research Group:The pursuit of new concept in the exploitation of biomass
1. Development of selective and efficient as well as ecologically and economically benign preparation methods and their use in the exploitation of natural polymer (cellulose, chitin, hemicellulose, and lignin, etc.).
2. Preparation of advanced functional materials from natural polymers. He found and developed the technology to isolate native nanocrystals (cellulose nanocrystals and chitin nanocrystals) from biowaste via alkaline periodate oxidation.
