N2 - Wood fibers are currently mainly exploited in forest industries, but their availability and sustainability also make them an interesting raw material option for other material applications. The properties of wood fibers are often not suited, as such, for use in target applications, however, and there is therefore a continuous search for novel methods to modify fiber properties. The chemo-enzymatic functionalisation method developed at VTT is a versatile modification method suitable for various lignin-containing fiber materials including wood fibers. The method developed by VTT appears to offer new opportunities for extending the application of wood fibers outside traditional wood-processing products.
