With a passionate R&D team and high-performance exclusive and specialized chemical recipes, CD BioGlyco focuses on developing a variety of physical and chemical modification protocols to help clients develop degradable oxidized regenerated cellulose and nanocellulose. Our cellulose solutions focus on custom specialty chemical applications for each unique requirement, accelerating our customers' innovation and sustainability initiatives.
Cellulose (Wikipedia)
Cellulose is by far the most abundant renewable compound obtained from the biosphere and can be obtained from plants, algae, tunicates, and some bacteria. Due to a large number of hydrogen bonds between cellulose chains, cellulose is insoluble in common organic solvents, even in water. In addition, unmodified cellulose has poor adsorption capacity and poor mechanical properties. However, cellulose contains a large number of polar groups, which can be easily modified physically or chemically. Modified and functionalized by a variety of available appropriate techniques, cellulose-based biodegradable materials have received increasing attention.
Cellulose-based biodegradable materials have attracted considerable attention for their applications in the biomedical field due to their suitable physical and mechanical properties. In addition, these materials also have the characteristics of biocompatibility, biodegradability, low cytotoxicity, and adjustable porosity and interconnection, and are considered cost-effective prospective materials for biomedical applications.

Cellulose typically exists in the morphological form of fibers, microfibers/nanofibers, and micro/nanocrystalline cellulose. Our researchers are dedicated to using these different cellulosic particles as building blocks to help our clients produce materials with different microstructures and properties that are required for numerous biomedical applications. We develop unique and exclusive chemical innovations to provide cellulose-based degradable material solutions to meet the future requirements of our target industries. Our area of focus is the development of oxidized regenerated cellulose and nanocellulose.
Cellulose-based biodegradable materials, as novel biomedical substances, are widely used in the field of biomedicine, such as:
CD BioGlyco has accumulated rich experience in developing Polysaccharide-based Biodegradable Materials. We have the strength to provide our clients with proven high-performance and cost-effective solutions in the development of cellulose-based biodegradable materials. Our total solutions accelerate innovation through customized chemical applications, improved processes and efficiencies, and increased product quality.
