Herty Advanced Materials Development Center (HAMDC) at Georgia Southern University recently opened Advanced Chemical Processing facility that can help with the development of high performance and bio-based materials like nanocrystalline cellulose. According to a release from Herty, the new center will be able to process materials ranging from minerals to polymers that have many advanced applications in automotive and aerospace industries. Director BioProducts at Herty stated, "nanocellulose has strength similar to Kevlar and is a promising biomaterial for advanced composite applications in the automotive and aerospace sectors. The new facility has 500 L reactor that can be used for mixing, can undertake multicomponent reactions and has superior drying capability. The new reactor offers a powerful platform for giving the U.S. industry innovative materials from plastics to specialty coating, stated Herty's advanced materials group Director.
