Together with @MitchellPJones and Eero Kontturi from Aalto we "Grow it yourself composites" a story on delignification and hybridisation of lignocellulosic material using animals and fungi. Now published in Green Chemistry pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

Grow it yourself composites: delignification and hybridisation of lignocellulosic material using...

The use of chemical and energy intensive delignification processes in industrial pulping generates cellulosic fibres that are hydrophilic, hygroscopic and
