Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a screw cap(12), wherein the screw cap having a blind hole with inner threads. The method comprising the steps of placing a piece pre-preg MFC (11), of a suitable size for forming the screw cap, between a first tool (1) comprising a protruded part (2) with outer threads (4) for forming the inner threads (17) of the blind hole (14),and a second tool comprising a section (22) with an inner lateral surface (25) for forming an outer lateral surface(18) of the screw cap, moving the protruded part of the first tool into the section of the second tool, such that,the first and the second tool forms the screw cap,drying the piece of pre-preg MFC, such that it is shrinks onto the first tool and thereby forms the screw cap, and unscrewing the formed screw cap from the threads of the protruded part of the first tool.
Abstract:
A method for drying nanofibrillated polysaccharide to obtain a substantially dry nanofibrillated polysaccharide product, comprising the following steps: (i) providing an aqueous suspension of nanofibrillated polysaccharide; (ii) increasing the solid content of said suspension, thereby forming a high solid content microfibrillated cellulose suspension; and (iii) drying said high solid content microfibrillated cellulose suspension, through a simultaneous heating and mixing operation.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing a dispersion comprising microfibrillated cellulose and nanoparticles wherein the process comprises the steps; providing a slurry comprising pre-treated cellulose fibers, adding nanoparticles to the slurry and treating the slurry by mechanical disintegration so that a dispersion comprising microfibrillated cellulose is formed in which the nanoparticles are being adsorbed to the surface of the microfibrillated cellulose and/or being adsorbed into the microfibrillated cellulose. The invention further relates to a dispersion produced according to the process, a paper or board product being coated with a coating comprising said dispersion and a paper or board product being produced from said dispersion as well as a composite comprising said dispersion.

Abstract:
Method for producing microfibrillated cellulose(MFC), wherein the method comprising the steps of: Pre-treating of chemical pulp, such that, the pulp reaches a Schopper-Riegler (SR) value above 50, and refining the pulp, at a consistency of 3-6%, in a refiner with refiner blades, wherein the height of the refiner blades is in the range 2-3 mm.
