Create Performance
Natural and biodegradable cellulose filaments can be used in a variety of products to improve their strength, stability, flexibility and resistance, and to make them lighter in an cost-efficient manner.
Polymer Composites
When incorporated into thermoplastics, FiloCell significantly increases tensile strenght, flexural strength and modulus. The benefits are substantial for thermoplastics, and foams and thermoset resins. Furthermore, FiloCell is an attractive alternative to glass fibres, combining strength and lighter weight.
Cement and Concrete Products
FiloCell outperforms existing additives and gives extraordinary properties to cementitious products such as high-performance and precast concrete.
FiloCell increases flexural and tensile strength as well as toughness. Because of its thixotropic properties, FiloCell lends itself well to underwater and shotcrete applications and is an advantageous substitute for viscosity modifying agents (VMA).
Paper, Tissue Paper Products and Containerboard
FiloCell is successfully being used to improve various paper and tissue paper products, such as bathroom tissue, specialty papers, and others. This biomaterial is aimed at optimizing current furnishes and developing new grades. Typically, FiloCell improves wet and dry strength, the consistency of mechanical strength and filler retention.
Numerous Sectors
