ANTTI HAAPALA
Associate professor
Research focus is on wood and woody biomass as a part of forest bioeconomy, including residues with the aim of introducing novel and green solution to wood modification, preservation, fire retardancy and chemical biorefining pathways. In addition, special emphasis is on novel fiber processing applications, analysis and refining into e.g. nanocelluloses.
