Protein Fibre Powders: Production, Characterisation and Applications. Australia leads the world in the production of protein fibres such as wool. Traditionally, these fibres are used primarily for textile related applications, which have been increasingly relying on the much cheaper synthetic fibres. The outcome from this research will be very significant in that it will underpin the future development of a sustainable protein fibre industry, through value-added and high-end applications.

Traditionally, these fibres are used primarily for textile related applications, which have been increasingly relying on the much cheaper synthetic fibres. The outcome from this research will be very significant in that it will underpin the future development of a sustainable protein fibre industry, through value-added and high-end applications. It will further strengthen our world leading position in the production, characterisation and application of protein powder materials.Read moreRead less
