Abstract:
The present invention relates to coated paper or paperboard comprising: a paper or paperboard substrate, and a solid closed cell foam coating layer disposed on a surface of said a paper or paperboard substrate, wherein said solid closed cell foam coating layer comprises a nanocellulose, and a foaming agent. The invention further relates to a food container, preferably a cup, comprising such coated paper or paperboard.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fibrous web product such as paper, and a method for the preparation of such fibrous web. According to the method microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) together with a pulp of a greater fibre length, such as chemithermomechanical pulp (CTMP), are mixed with a foam of water and a sur-factant, the foam is supplied to a forming fabric of a paper or board machine, dewatered by suction of air through the forming fabric, and dried to the final web product. The method brings a high bulk in combination with a high Scott bond value, to provide improved wet and dry tensile strength for the paper and board products.
Abstract:
A hydrophobically sized fibrous web layer, preparation of a fibrous web or a fiber-based coating, a multilayer board product having at least a middle layer formed of said fibrous web, as well as use of a heat-sensitive surfactant for said methods and products, whereby microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) and hydrophobic size are brought to a foam with water and the heat-sensitive surfactant, the foam is supplied to a forming fabric of a paper or board machine, dewatered by suction of air through the forming fabric, and dried to a web product. Alternatively the foam may be supplied onto a premade fibrous web and dried to form a coating layer. The hydrophilic functionality of the surfactant contained in the web may be destroyed by heating. Pulp of a greater fiber length, such as CTMP, may be included, to provide improved wet and dry tensile strength for the paper and board products.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing modified cellulose fibers for a moldable cellulose fiber based material, said method comprising: a) providing a chemical or semi-chemical wood pulp comprising cellulose fibers, and optionally subjecting the pulp to alkaline extraction to obtain an alkaline extracted pulp; and b) subjecting the pulp or the alkaline extracted pulp of step a) to a chemical treatment with an alkaline solution and/or an organic solvent to obtain a treated pulp or treated alkaline extracted pulp comprising modified cellulose fibers for a moldable cellulose fiber based material. The invention further relates to a moldable cellulose fiber based material comprising at least 70% by dry weight of modified cellulose fibers obtainable by the method.

The invention relates to a hydrophobically sized fibrous web layer, methods for the preparation of a fibrous web or a fibre-based coating, a multilayer board product having at least a middle layer formed of said fibrous web, as well as use of a heat-sensitive surfactant for said methods and products. According to the method microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) and hydrophobic size are brought to a foam with water and the heat-sensitive surfactant, the foam is supplied to a forming fabric of a paper or board machine, dewatered by suction of air through the forming fabric, and dried to a web product. Alternatively the foam may be supplied onto a premade fibrous web and dried to form a coating layer. To prevent gradual degradation of the hydrophobic sizing the hydrophilic functionality of the surfactant contained in the web is finally destroyed by heating. The method uses e.g. AKD-based surfactants with a hydrophilic moiety, which decompose is decomposed by heat, may be used. If pulp of a greater fibre length, such as CTMP, is also included, a high bulk in combination with a high Scott bond value is achieved, to provide improved wet and dry tensile strength for the paper and board products.
