Back Cover : High performance cellulose fibers are manufactured from liquid crystalline solutions, using low molecular weight microcrystalline cellulose as raw material and dimethyl sulfoxide as a co‐solvent with an ionic liquid. These fibers have great potential to be used as sustainable reinforcing fibers for composites as well as carbon fiber precursors. This work is reported by Chenchen Zhu, Anastasia F.
