  1. 1. MFC for paper surface treatment

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Yselaure Boissard; [2017]
    Keywords : microfibrillated cellulose; MFC; cellulose nanofibers; CNF; paper; coating; barrier;

    Abstract : In this study, microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) was applied in an aqueous suspension as a coating material on paper substrates. Two different coating techniques were used: rod coating and size press. READ MORE

  2. 2. Nanocellulose in pigment coatings : Aspects of barrier properties and printability in offset

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Sofie Nygårds; [2011]
    Keywords : Nanocellulose; Microfibrillated cellulose; Coatings; Barrier; Printability; Air permeability; Offset; Surface Energy;

    Abstract : Papers are coated in order to improve the properties of the surface, to improve printability and to include new functionalities like barriers properties. Typical coating formulation contains a high number of components, some are made from minerals and others are manufactured from petroleum. READ MORE

  3. 3. Development of Free-Standing Interference Films for Paper and Packaging Applications

    University essay from Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Johan Holmqvist; [2008]
    Keywords : layer-by-layer; interference thin film; free-standing; moisture sensor; polyelectrolyte; surface self-assembly; silanization;

    Abstract : The newfound capability of creating moisture sensitive interference multilayered thin films (MLTFs) comprising microfibrillated cellulose and polymers has not previously been possible to implement on surfaces other than silicon wafer strips. Being able to incorporate interference MLTFs on fibre-based materials would introduce the possibility for new applications within authentication, sensing and customer attraction for the paper and packaging industry.
