A consortium consisting of industrial, academic and governmental institutions in Japan completed the NCV Concept Car, a concept car made of cellulose nanofiber, in the NCV (Nanocellulose Vehicle) Project of Japan’s Ministry of the Environment (MOE)<\/a>. The consortium, which consists of 22 institutions including Kyoto University, used as many CNF-based parts as possible and realized a weight reduction of higher than 10%. CNF is a plant-derived material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The consortium developed a sports car equipped with gull-wing doors, which open upwards. CNF and resin materials using CNF as a reinforcing material (CNF-reinforced resins) were applied not only to interior parts but also to outer panels, which require a higher strength, higher rigidity and higher appearance quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For the concept car, CNF was proactively applied to large-size outer panels, and a high weight reduction effect was realized. The front hood is made only of CNF and does not contain even CNF-reinforced resin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For the transparent roof and back window, resin glazing using CNF-added polycarbonate (PC) was used. When CNF is added, the strength and rigidity of PC increase, enabling to reduce thickness and, thus, cut weight. CNF with a small diameter transmits light and does not reduce transparency. This characteristic was utilized for the transparent roof and back window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The outer panels of the gull-wing doors were made of CNF-reinforced polypropylene (PP). The NCV Concept Car is not a mock-up, as it can travel at a speed of 20km\/h (approx 12.4mph). The consortium plans to further increase the maximum speed in the future.
