...Statistical and economic data
It is envisaged that the time-to-market for nanocellulose will be similar to that for plastics.
This curve predicts that the estimated size of the global nanocellulose market will be reached around 2045. Commercial sustainability criteria and global environmental concerns could accelerate production beyond this conservative estimate.
