  2. 16. Microfibrillated cellulose: Energy-efficient preparation techniques and applications in paper

    Author : Mikael Ankerfors; Lars Wågberg; Akira Isogai; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Microfibrillated cellulose; microfibrillar cellulose; nanofibrillated cellulose; nanofibrillar cellulose; cellulose nanofibrils; nanocellulose; MFC; NFC; CNF; production techniques; energy efficient; gel properties; films; enzymes; carboxymethylation; carboxymethyl cellulose; CMC; mechanical properties; oxygen barrier; homogenization; linting; papermaking; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : This work describes three alternative processes for producing microfibrillated cellulose (MFC; also referred to as cellulose nanofibrils, CNF) in which bleached pulp fibres are first pretreated and then homogenized using a high-pressure homogenizer. In one process, fibre cell wall delamination was facilitated by a combined enzymatic and mechanical pretreatment. READ MORE

  5. 18. Two-dimensional Nanocomposites Based on Cellulose Nanofibrils and Graphene Oxide

    Author : Hanieh Mianehrow; Lars Berglund; Aji Mathew; KTH; []
    Keywords : Cellulose nanofibrils; graphene oxide; orientation; reinforcement; oxygen barrier; bio-nanocomposite; moisture; molecular adhesion; interfacial shear strength.; Nanocellulosa; grafenoxid; orientering; förstärkning; syrebarriär; bionanokomposit; fukt; molekylär adhesion; skjuvhållfasthet hos gränsytan.; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : Two-dimensional (2D) nanocomposites based on cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and 2D nanomaterials are of interest as sustainable materials combining functional and structural properties. To achieve reinforcement effects from 2D nanomaterials, their orientation and dispersion state in the CNF matrix are important. READ MORE

  6. 19. Structural Studies and Modelling of Oxygen Transport in Barrier Materials for Food Packaging

    Author : Åsa Nyflött; Magnus Lestelius; Ellen Moons; Lars Järnström; Gunilla Carlsson; Chris Bonnerup; Ulrica Edlund; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Barrier coating; Permeability; Dynamic Mass Transport; Modeling; Diffusion; Polymer; Dispersion; Kaolin; Materials Science; Materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : The requirements of food packages are to ensure food safety and quality, to minimize spoilage, and to provide an easy way to store and handle food. To meet these demands for fibre-based food packages, barrier coatings are generally used to regulate the amount of gases entering a package, as some gases are detrimental to food quality. READ MORE

  7. 20. Dispersion Coating for Active Food Packaging: Aroma Interactions and Oxygen Scavenging

    Author : Anna Nestorson; Lars Järnström; Anders Leufvén; Caisa Andersson; José M. Lagaron; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Active food packaging; Dispersion coating; Latex; Aroma compounds; Oxygen scavenging; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : ABSTRACTActive packaging materials prolong the shelf life or preserve the quality of packed food by absorbing oxygen, ethylene, moisture or odours, or by releasing antimicrobial agents, antioxidants or flavours. In dispersion coating, a latex is applied onto paper or paperboard to form a barrier film against water, water vapour, oil or gases. READ MORE
