Consequences on „wood“ education
Classical wood science & technology education is not enough
To meet future innvation and market demands, competences
are needed in:
Polymer Chemistry
Knowledge on biopolymers, plant-based chemicals,
extractives, resins, additives
Polymer Engineering and Processng
Non-woven technology
