Fields of Application for the Functional ARBOCEL® Cellulose
Cellulose fibers are derived from a wide variety of plant-based raw materials. JRS harnesses the diverse functional properties of plant-based raw materials for use in virtually all sectors of modern industry.
Automotive
ARBOCEL® fiber additives, cellulose fibers, and ultrafine cellulose enable lighter and more functional materials, components, and processes.
Asbestos Substitution
Functional cellulose fibres as a replacement for materials which are classified as dangerous, such as substitutes for asbestos.
Construction Chemistry
Functional cellulose fibers for chemical construction products, such as smoothing compounds, fillers, tile adhesives and plasters. Dispersion-based and mineral systems, bituminous applications.
Hydroseeding
Fast, efficient planting. Hydroseeding is used in road construction, horticulture and landscaping. Functionality modeled after plant structures.
Chemistry
As a competence and technology partner for functional plant fiber applications, we serve as a bridge between the world of industrial applications and the diverse functional properties of plant-based raw materials.
Enzymes
Today, enzymes are used in many areas of modern life. Amongst other things, enzymes are used in laundry detergents, animal feed and for the manufacture of bioethanol.
Excipients
Powdered cellulose is used as an economic, inert carrier material in tabletting and capsule filling. ARBOCEL® powdered cellulose improves tablet hardness and disintegration time – also, in combination with VIVAPUR® MCC.
Filtration
Highly pure, odourless and fibers which are neutral to taste made from specially prepared quality cellulose material. Mechanically and chemically very stable, insoluble in almost all media and virtually pH-neutral. The organic, highly efficient alternative to diatomaceous earth and Pertite.
Animal Nutrition
ARBOCEL® raw fiber sources for modern animal nutrition - highly functional, healthy – and scientifically proven!
PU Leather
Cellulose-based products: Innovative and proven concepts and products for forward-looking, sustainable asphalt road construction.
Road Construction
Cellulose-based: Innovative and proven concepts and products for high-performance asphalt road construction.
Diatomaceous Earth Replacement
ARBOCEL® cellulose fibers are superior in many industries and, due to their functional properties, are an ideal replacement for diatomaceous earth. The exclusion of health hazards and/or complete recyclability makes JRS cellulose products the ideal 'green' replacement for diatomaceous earth.
Plastics
JRS plant fiber products offer many starting points for use in modern plastic products!
Paper and Cardboard Industry
Functional ARBOCEL® process fibers and fiber additives for the paper and cardboard industry.
Welding Electrodes
ARBOCEL® cellulose fibers are used for coating high-quality welding electrodes and serve as process fibers, as well as protective gas-formers, when using these electrodes for welding.
Benefits of ARBOCEL® Cellulose Fibers
Plant-based Raw Material
Biodegradable Material
CO₂-reduced
Material with Recycling Potential
Biopolymer Cellulose
Cellulose is the most abundant organic substance in nature.
When it is generated under the influence of sunlight, it binds large amounts of CO2.
The Natural Process of Cellulose Formation:
Water/H₂O + Sunlight + CO₂
Cellulose + Oxygen/O₂
