abstract |
The present invention generally relates to the field of celluloses, especially nanocelluloses, and more particularly to processes for the manufacture of cellulosic fibers and defibrillation of cellulosic substrates. In particular, the invention relates to methods for defibrillating cellulosic substrates and for making celluloses, in particular nanocelluloses (NC), using a novel fungal family of Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMO). |
