Towards Sustainable Viscose-to-Viscose Production: Strategies for Recycling of Viscose Fibres
SustainabilityThe potential for using discarded viscose textiles to produce high-quality viscose fibres is limited by the low molecular weight of the cellulose and its continued reduction in the recycling process. Herein, we present a straightforward approach of reprocessing discarded viscose textiles while achieving high-quality recycled viscose fibres.
