Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for producing a cellulose-based product having lipid resistance, said method comprising - providing an aqueous mixture comprising cellulose pulp, said mixture having a solid content between 0.1- 2%; - adding a saccharide fatty acid ester (SFAE) to the mixture in an amount between 0.5 - 10 wt% based on the total mixture fiber content; - adding a retention aid chemical to said mixture arranged to improve retention of said SFAE to the cellulose fibers, and - producing a cellulose-based product from said mixture, wherein the electrostatic charge balance of the mixture is adjusted to be on the anionic side.
Abstract:
The invention discloses a method for producing a three-dimensional molded article from cellulose fibers, comprising the steps of: -providing a pulp molding composition; -molding a three-dimensional precursor structure from said composition wherein said structure comprises a dry content between 15-80wt%; -providing an aqueous suspension comprising microfibrillated cellulose; -applying the aqueous suspension onto at least one face of said precursor structure to create a surface barrier layer on said structure; and -dewatering and drying said molded precursor structure under elevated temperature >150°C to a dry content of ≥88wt%, preferably ≥94wt%, more preferably ≥96% to achieve the three- dimensional molded article comprising a surface barrier layer.

Abstract:
The invention discloses a paperboard comprising a base ply, a top ply, and an intermediate layer disposed in-between the at least one base ply and the top ply. The intermediate layer comprises pigment and microfibrillated cellulose (MFC). The application of an intermediate layer comprising pigment and MFC in- between the base ply and the top ply gives rise to improved optical properties of the paperboard, even when using an uncoated top ply having a low grammage. This makes it possible to reduce the grammage of the top ply and still obtain good optical properties.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a lightweight linerboard for corrugated board with good strength properties and which reduces problems with washboarding in the thereof produced corrugated board. The linerboard of the invention comprises at least one ply comprising 20 - 80 wt% CTMP from wood fibers and 20 - 80 wt% chemical pulp, all percentages calculated on the total fiber weight of said first ply, wherein the CTMP exhibits a bulk of at least 2.5 cm 3 /g.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a multi-ply paperboard for packaging of liquid and/or food products, which paperboard comprises a top ply, a back ply and at least one middle ply arranged between said top and back ply. The invention is characterized in that the back ply is made of unbleached hardwood pulp to 100% by weight, calculated on the total fiber weight of said back ply. It has surprisingly been found that the use of unbleached pulp in the back ply makes it possible to use 100% hardwood fibers in the back ply, calculated on the total fiber weight of the back ply, and still achieve a high quality board with an acceptable strength and bending resistance.
Abstract:
The invention discloses a multi-ply paperboard comprising pulp of cellulosic fibers, wherein 100% of the total fiber content of said paperboard are hardwood fibers. Contrary to prevailing assumptions, it has surprisingly been found that it is possible to produce a multi-ply paperboard of 100% hardwood pulp with a comparable strength, a higher bulk and a higher bending resistance as compared to a multi-ply paperboard comprising softwood pulp.The use of 100% hardwood pulp is economically favorable, since the access to softwood pulp is limited in large parts of the world. Moreover, a high amount of hardwood pulp in the paperboard improves the surface properties and the optical properties of the board.
Abstract:
The invention discloses a method for producing a three dimensional molded product from cellulose fibers, comprising the steps of: -providing a cellulose fiber composition comprising 1-30wt% lignin, said cellulose fiber composition further having a solid content between 0.1-95%; -providing a forming tool having a three dimensional shape including a forming surface, and bringing said forming surface into contact with the cellulose fiber composition; and -press drying the cellulose fiber composition contacted by the forming tool at temperatures >200°C to a dry content of at least 70%. The invention also relates to a three dimensional fiber based product obtainable by means of said method.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a ply of a linerboard for corrugated board, which ply exhibits high strength properties and which enables the production of lightweight linerboards. The ply of the invention comprises 20 –80 wt % CTMP from wood fibers and 80 –20 wt% chemical pulp, calculated on the total fiber weight of said ply and strength additives chosen from the group of microfibrillated cellulose (MFC), anionic or cationic polymers and starchor combinations thereof. The ply exhibits a geometric SCT index of above 22 Nm/g and a density of below 680 kg/m 3 , preferably of below 650 kg/m 3.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing at least one ply of a paper or board product wherein a web comprising mechanical and/or chemimechanical pulp and at least one dry strength additive is dried in a press drying process by subjecting the web to heat and an overpressure of above 40kPa. The present invention also relates to a paper product, a paperboard product and a ply produced according to the process.
