Nano-mechanical characterization of the wood cell wall by AFM studies: comparison between AC- and QI™ mode

Nano-mechanical characterization of the wood cell wall by AFM studies: comparison between AC- and QI™ mode

Abstract Background Understanding the arrangement and mechanical properties of wood polymers within the plant cell wall is the basis for unravelling its underlying structure–property relationships. As state of the art Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) has been used to visualize cell wall layers in conta...
