Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wood as an environmental-friendly and renewable biomass material has been used for thousands of years in building construction, furniture, decoration and fuels. Recently, much research has been directed towards the utilization of wood-based materials including lingo-cellulose, lignin, wood derivatives, wood inspired materials, etc. This special issue of “Design and Synthesis of Wood-Based Functional Materials” will focus on the recent advances in the design and synthesis of new functional materials prepared from wood-based materials. This special issue accepts research and review articles that will show a diversity of new developments in these areas:
- Novel design and preparation technologies of wood-based functional materials.
- Characterization and evaluation of functional materials based on wood.
