Abstract:
Protection barriers, such as floor protection barriers, and methods for making and using same. The protection barrier can include a base sheet and an energy absorbing layer. The base sheet can have two or more paperboard layers and one or more sizing layers. A first paperboard layer can form a first surface of the base sheet, a second paperboard layer can form a second surface of the base sheet, and the one or more sizing layers can be disposed between the first and second paperboard layers. The energy absorbing layer can be secured to the second paperboard layer.
Abstract:
The present invention is related to methods for dyeing a traveling cellulosic substrate. The methods include steps of cationizing a cellulosic substrate followed by applying foam including one or more dyes to the cationized cellulosic substrate.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a curtain coatable gas barrier coating composition comprising a polymer and a surfactant, wherein the polymer is selected from a group consisting of polyvinyl alcohol and polysaccharides, or mixtures thereof, wherein said polysaccharides are soluble or dispersable or suspendable in water and the surfactant is a water soluble non-ionic ethoxylated alcohol. The present invention also relates to a method for providing a substrate with a gas barrier layer by means of the coating composition, and a coated substrate 1 having at least one gas barrier layer 2 obtained by coating the substrate with the coating composition. Further, the invention relates to a packaging material comprising a coated paperboard coated with the coating composition, and a liquid package comprising such a packaging material.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides a tissue product comprising at least one multi-layered tissue web that includes a first fibrous layer and a second fibrous layer. The first fibrous layer comprises wood fibers and the second fibrous layer comprises cotton fibers. Cotton fibers are present within the second fibrous layer in an amount from about 1 to about 2 percent by weight of the layer, in some embodiments from about 5 to about 20 percent by weight of the layer, and in some embodiments, from about 10 to about 15 percent by weight of the layer. The selective incorporation of cotton fibers in the tissue web results in a web having improved handfeel without negatively effecting strength and durability.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a biopolymer based barrier coating composition wherein said biopolymer based barrier coating composition comprises a plasticizer, a nano-sized clay and a biopolymer comprising a native starch and/or a degraded starch and/or a chemically modified starch. The present invention also relates to a method for preparing the biopolymer based barrier coating composition as well as to a method for coating a cellulose based substrate with the biopolymer based barrier coating composition. Finally, the present invention relates to a cellulose based substrate coated with said biopolymer based barrier coating composition.
Abstract:
Polysaccharide thermosetting systems and composites utilizing such systems include formaldehyde free binders formed from at least one polysaccharide and at least one polysaccharide crosslinker.
Abstract:
A composition suitable for coating a paper product can comprise starch and at least one additional component selected from the group consisting of (a) an amphiphilic surfactant and (b) a particulate emulsion; wherein the weight ratio of surfactant to starch is from about 0.005: 1 to about 0.25: 1 and the weight ratio of the particulate emulsion to starch is from about 0.005: 1 to about 0.429: 1.
Abstract:
A laser-markable composition comprises a marking component and an organic compound, wherein the organic compound absorbs laser radiation at 780 to 2000 nm and thereby causes the marking component to change colour, and wherein the organic compound has an absorptivity ratio, A r, of at least 1.25, wherein the absorptivity ratio is defined as formula (I): wherein: A p780-2000nm is an absorbance peak in the wavelength region of 780 to 2000 nm; and A ave400-700nm is the average absorbance in the wavelength region of 400 to 700 nm.
