Special Issue in the journal Carbohydrate Polymers

We are pleased to announce that selected papers from the conference will be published in a Special Issue in the journal Carbohydrate Polymers. The submission for the issue will open in August 2023 and the final deadline for submissions will be 31 January 2024. More information will follow.

We welcome your participation:

Molecules targeted at this conference naturally include various polysaccharides other than cellulose, such as chitin and hemicellulose. Research on materials including lignocellulose, wood, and natural fibers is also widely accepted. Research objectives range from the fundamentals of physics, biology, and chemistry to applications related to fiber, pulp and paper, derivatives, advanced materials, food, bioactivity, energy, and other industries. Presentation styles are oral and poster. Unlike previous ICCs, we set multiple time slots for parallel sessions using three rooms. Therefore, it is possible to accept many oral presentations. We welcome all interested people to join us!

Steering Committee Chair: Dr. Takashi Endo (AIST)
Executive Committee Chair: Prof. Masahisa Wada (Kyoto Univ)

Dr. Yoshikuni Teramoto (Kyoto Univ) is in charge of general affairs.

Welcome to ICC 2022+1

Dear Colleagues

On behalf of the Cellulose Society, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all cellulose scientists and engineers to the signature event of 2023, the International Cellulose Conference 2022+1, September 26-28, in Hiroshima, Japan, a historic and vibrant city, where I spent my school years.

Although global warming and sustainable energy issues are not easy problems to solve, we should recognize that we are indeed contributing to solving such social problems by advancing technology and science of cellulose, the most abundant organic substance on earth.

A face-to-face international meeting, which has long been interrupted by the COVID-19, will be of great opportunity for the cellulose professionals seeking new concepts and networking across the borders.

Again, I am looking forward to an excellent meeting with great scientists from different countries around the world in Hiroshima 2023.

President of the Cellulose Society of Japan
Junji Sugiyama
