In an effort to reduce pollution by polymer wastes, cellulose paper is investigated as a polymer foam replacement for structural applications. Closed-cell plate lattices, open-cell truss lattices, honeycombs and epoxy-paper interpenetrating phase composites (IPC) were fabricated using a sheet lamina...
