The goal | The course has been designed to provide a comprehensive review of the processing and usage of biobased fibers and fibrous materials, as well as the future of these fibers considering the development of new fibers, fibrous materials and products as an important element of sustainable development. Acquired knowledge in the field of biobased fibers should serve as a basis for independent research on the further development of the technologies and biobased products. | |||
The outcome | Getting acquainted with the processing and utilization of biobased fibers and fibrous materials, a chronology of their appearance, the contributions of the development of new processing and new materials on the society and sustainable development. Understanding the importance of active participation in the future development of technology and biobased products. Also, students are trained to conduct research, to design the project which will results in new knowledge, to conduct a critical dialogue in the scientific and professional field and make strategic decisions. | |||

Contents of lectures | Course provides an overview of the usage, market potential, basic data of the production and primary processing of biobased fibers, such as: natural fibers of animal origin (wool and hair fibers, silk); natural fibers of vegetable origin (seed fibers, bast fibers and leaf fibers); man-made fibers from natural polymers: regenerated cellulose fibers (viscose, cuprammonium fibers, lyocell) and other polysaccharide fibers (alginate, chitin and chitosan) and development of processes for thier obtaining: Comparative overview of the structure, properties and applications of biobased fibers. Modification and functionalization of cellulose fibers. Biorefinery concept. Obtaining and application of micro- and nanofibrillated cellulose. Novel applications of cellulose fibers: biocomposites (including nanocomposites), biosorbents, bioactive fibers based on lignocellulosic fibers. Perspective of biobased fibers. A strategy for a sustainable future of biobased fibers. | |||
