Nanocellulose: Functional Materials from Nanocellulose: Utilizing Structure–Property Relationships in Bottom‐Up Fabrication (Adv. Mater. 28/2021)

Mimicking the hierarchical structures found in nature is of high interest for materials scientists and engineers alike. As a natural and sustainable building block, nanocellulose has emerged as an advanced material for the bottom-up fabrication of complex aligned, porous, and fibrous structures. In article number 2000657, Gustav Nyström and co-workers highlight the most significant advances in nanocellulose-based bottom-up fabrication, establish fundamental design principles, and discuss future challenges in the field.
