Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing at least one layer of a film wherein the method comprises the steps of; providing a first suspension comprising microfibrillated cellulose, providing a second suspension comprising microfibrillated dialdehyde cellulose, mixing the first suspension with the second suspension to form a mixture, applying said mixture to a substrate to form a fibrous web and drying said web to form at least one layer of said film. The present invention further relates to a film comprising said at least one layer.
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:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of a paper or paperboard comprising at least two plies wherein microfibrillated cellulose is added to the surface of a first ply and the other ply is attached to the first ply so that the microfibrillated cellulose located in between the plies. The invention further relates to a paper or board produced according to the method.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to to a moulding material comprising 60-98 wt% of a dry wood-based material; 2-40 wt% of a fibrillated cellulose material; and 0-10 wt% of an additive, as calculated on the total dry solids in the moulded material. The invention also relates to a method for preparing such moulding material, as well as a moulded product prepared from said moulding material, and use of the moulding material in a moulded product.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to process for the production of a coated substrate comprising cellulosic fibres, the process comprising the steps of: i) providing a first substrate comprising cellulosic fibres and having a dry content of less than 50%; ii) applying a coating composition to the first substrate in an amount of more than 5 g/m 2 ,,calculated as dry weight of the coating composition, wherein the coating composition comprises: - microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), and - optionally a water retention agent selected from carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), anionic polyacrylamide (A-PAM),sodium polyacrylates, polyacrylic acid derivatives, guar gum, alginate, MFC prepared from carboxymethylated fibers, MFC prepared from oxidized fibers, MFC preparedby CMC- functionalised fibers, and/or combinations thereof; and iii) mechanically dewatering the first substrate. The present process provides an energy efficient coating process which can be performed online.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing a paper or paperboard product which process comprises the steps of, providing a furnish comprising fibers, adding starch to the furnish, adding microfibrillated cellulose to the furnish, conducting the furnish to a wire in order to form a web, wherein the starch and microfibrillated cellulose is added separately to the furnish.
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 2-3mm.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a paper or paperboard product comprising a furnish wherein said furnish comprises a cationic polymer in an amount of above 1,5% by weight, an anionic polymer and microfibrillated cellulose. The invention further relates to a process for the production of said product.
Abstract:
The invention provides an energy efficient method to manufacture 3D shaped articles, with smooth crease-free surfaces, from cellulose-based material. The method comprises the steps of: - providing a suspension with a dry content of more than 10%, which suspension comprises at least 95w% of cellulose fibers calculated on the total amount of dry material, whereof at least 50w% of said cellulose fibers have a fiber length of less than 1 mm, - spraying said suspension on a 3D-shaped, heated mold having a smooth surface, in at least a first step, whereby a 3D shaped article of cellulose fiber based material is formed, - drying said 3D shaped article.
Abstract:
A paper or board material containing pulp fibre or wood fibre or non-wood fibre and made from a stock solution, having a first and second side, wherein the paper material is provided with a surface coating layer on at least one side thereof, wherein said surface coating layer comprises a mixture of a microfibrillated polysaccharide and a filler, wherein said mixture is applied onto said paper or board material and wherein said microfibrillated polysaccharide is obtained from a portion of a pulp raw material comprising said pulp fiber or wood fiber or non-wood fibre, which pulp raw material subsequently forms said paper or board material and said filler is at least partially redistributed from being introduced into said stock solution to said surface coating layer.
