Novel fiber materials for reinforcement of rubber composites

The project is directed to the development of cellulose-based fiber materials for the reinforcement of rubber-like materials, with a focus on special rubbers for high-tear tyres. Gel permeation chromatography, X-ray scattering techniques and solid state NMR spectrocopy will be the main analytical techniques applied.
