味之素公司宣布,它与三菱造纸厂合作,利用起粘合作用的生物纤维素(bioce-llulose)在世界上首次开发了特种功能纸。生物纤维素是由葡萄糖在醋酸杆菌的作用下生成的胶化纤维素。尽管生物纤维素的粒度(数百埃)只有植物纤维的几百分之一,但其结晶度高,强度大。将生物纤维素与铝、活性碳、氮化硅和碳化硅等功能材料 Ajinomoto announced that it has cooperated with Mitsubishi Paper Mill and developed the special function paper for the first time in the world using bioce-llulose as a binding agent. Biocellulose is a gelatinous cellulose produced by glucose under the action of Acetobacter. Although the particle size of bio-cellulose (hundreds of angstroms) is only a few hundredths of that of plant fibers, it has high crystallinity and high strength. Bio-cellulose and functional materials such as aluminum, activated carbon, silicon nitride and silicon carbide
