Wood that bonds itself via homologous adhesion through cellulose reconstitution
Wood panels are extensively applied in furniture, construction fields, where their versatility and cost-effectiveness make them indispensable, but their assembly relies on adhesives that emit toxic formaldehyde, demand energy-intensive curing, and form ...

Structure, function and assembly of soybean primary cell wall cellulose synthases
Plant cell walls contain a meshwork of cellulose fibers embedded into a matrix of other carbohydrate and non-carbohydrate-based biopolymers. This composite material exhibits extraordinary properties, from stretchable and pliable cell boundaries to solid ...
