  1. 1. Biomimetically improved materials comprising microfibrillated cellulose

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Cornelia Byström; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) is a renewable, cellulosic material mainly producedfrom wood fibers, which are found in the secondary cell walls of plant cells. With theincreased demand for renewable biopolymer films in packaging, MFC has emerged asa potential alternative to non-renewable polymer films. READ MORE

  3. 2. Metalization of Micro Fibrillated Cellulose (MFC) films

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik

    Author : Yasser Kadhim; [2017]
    Keywords : Micro Fibrillated Cellulose MFC films; MFC Metalization; MFC packaging; PVD thin film coating;

    Abstract : In this thesis, two MFC based films Carboxymethylated-Microfibrillated Cellulose (MFC) and Enzymatic-MFC were characterized and metalized in order to improve the barrier properties at high relative humidity. Several methods were used for the characterization process, which were Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Contact Angle (CA), Energy Dispersive Spectra (EDS), Light Microscopy (LM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR).

  4. 3. Method for spraying of free standing 3D structures with MFC : Creation and development of a method

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper

    Author : Jennifer Magnusson; [2016]
    Keywords : MFC; spraying; 3D structures;

    Abstract : The main scope of this work was to investigate whether it is possible to produce free standing 3D structures by the means of spraying and using MFC as raw material. This was carried out by diluting MFC into a consistency of 2% and spraying it onto a male mould. READ MORE

  5. 4. Nanocellulose Based Films : Improved Mechanical And Gas Barrier Properties

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för informations- och kommunikationsteknik (ICT)

    Author : Philip Lamberstam; [2012]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) films have been prepared to demonstrate the potential of the material in order to see if it is a possibility to replace most parts of petroleum-based plastics. MFC is produced by mechanically delaminating the wood fiber cell wall into individual nano-fibrils. READ MORE
