Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for improving the strechability of films comprising high amounts of microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) without negatively impacting the oxygen barrier properties. According to the present invention, a film is formed from a suspension comprising microfibrillated cellulose having a broad size distribution.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a gas barrier film for a paper or paperboard based packaging material, said gas barrier film comprising: a microfibrillated cellulose layer (MFC layer), at least one surface of which has been metallized; and a polymer dispersion coating layer disposed on at least one surface of the MFC layer. The present invention further relates to a paper or paperboard based packaging material, containers and carton blanks comprising the gas barrier film, and to a method for manufacturing the gas barrier film.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an aqueous barrier coating composition comprising: 20-80 % by weight of a dissolved first polysaccharide having a first degree of polymerization (DP1) of at least 150, based on the total solids content of the aqueous barrier coating composition; and 20-80 % by weight of a dissolved second polysaccharide having a second degree of polymerization (DP2) of 100 or less, based on the total solids content of the aqueous barrier coating composition; wherein the ratio of DP1:DP2 is at least 10:1; and wherein the aqueous barrier coating composition has a total solids content in the range of 10-90 % by weight.
Abstract:

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 dialdehyde cellulose fibers with a first degree of oxidation;providing at least a second suspension comprising dialdehyde cellulose fibers with a second degree of oxidation which is lower than said first degree of oxidation;mixing the first suspension with the second suspension to form a mixture;mechanically treating the cellulose fibers in said mixture to microfibrillated dialdehyde cellulose;applying said mixture to a substrate to form a fibrous web; and drying said web to form at least one layer of said film.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate) coated fiber-based substrate, said method comprising the steps: a) providing a fiber-based substrate having a first main surface and a second 5 main surface and having a moisture content in the range of 4-10 wt%; b) forming a first PHA layer by applying a first aqueous coating composition comprising a first PHA having a melting point in the range of 120-180 °C on the first main surface and drying the first aqueous coating composition at a first drying temperature in the range of 90-130 °C and at least 20 °C below the melting point 10 of the first PHA.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a a method for manufacturing at least one layer of a film characterized by that 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, in which mixture less than 5% of the anhydroglucose units (AGU) of the total cellulose present therein comprise a dialdehyde,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 of film.
