    Abstract: A method for the production of a film from a fibrous web, wherein the method comprises the steps of: providing a fibrous suspension comprising a microfibrillated cellulose, wherein the content of the microfibrillated cellulose of said suspension is in the range of 60 to 99.9 weight-% based on total dry solid content, adding an amphoteric polymer to said suspension to provide a mixture of said microfibrillated cellulose and said amphoteric polymer, providing said mixture to a substrate to form a fibrous web, wherein the amount of amphoteric polymer in said mixture is in the range of 0.1 to 20 kg/metric ton based on total dry solid content; and dewatering said fibrous web to form a film having a basis weight of less than 40 g/m2 and a density in the range of from 700 to 1000 kg/m3.

    Abstract: The invention concerns a fibrous-based oxygen barrier film, which comprises (i) a microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) film, (ii) an oxygen barrier polymer layer, (iii) an optional tie layer, and (iv) an outermost polyolefin layer. The invention even concerns a laminate, in which said multilayer film is combined with a fibrous paper or board base by means of an intermediate poly-ethylene layer. The oxygen barrier polymerlayer, which preferably is EVOH, and the polyolefin layer are brought by coextrusion onto the MFC film. The film and the laminate according to the invention aim at an improved oxygen barrier in high humidity conditions and have use in oxygen-sensitive food packaging.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a film comprising microfibrillated cellulose, wherein the method comprises the steps of: providing a first suspension comprising microfibrillated cellulose, having a dry content of from 0.2 to 2.0%, wherein the first suspension has a first Schopper-Riegler (SR) value; forming a first web of said suspension; at least partly dewatering said first web; applying a second suspension comprising microfibrillated cellulose, and/or fines and/or fibers onto a surface of said formed and at least partially dried first web, wherein the second suspension has a second Schopper-Riegler value which is higher than said first Schopper-Riegler value, thereby forming a film.
