  1. 6. Crosslinked Cartonboard - Challenges and possibilities

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Malin Elvin; [2022]
    Keywords : Cartonboard; crosslinking; mechanical properties; SCT;

    Abstract : The need for sustainable packaging is growing, and plastic waste needs to be reduced. A suitable alternative could be fibre-based packaging and cartonboard, and several actions could enhance this alternative. This study investigates crosslinking, a method to create stronger bonds between the OH-groups in the material. READ MORE
