Oxygen and oil barrier properties of microfibrillated cellulose films and coatings (2010, methodology): “In addition to the Tappi T-454 tests, the penetration time of castor oil [clv = 35.8 mN/m ( Schwartz 1981 ); Fluka, purum, Germany] was also studied.”
Surface chemical modification of microfibrillated cellulose: improvement of barrier properties for packaging applications (2011, methodology): “The objective of this study was to develop MFC films with good barrier properties to liquid water in addition to the excellent oxygen barrier of MFC films ( Syverud and Stenius 2009 ).”
WATER VAPOR BARRIER PROPERTIES OF COATED AND FILLED MICROFIBRILLATED CELLULOSE COMPOSITE FILMS (2011, methodology): “In fact, the strength of MFC-based films is a requisite that can be easily met given the fact that, at a 35 g/m2 basis weight, MFC films were found to have a relatively high tensile index of 146 Nm/g, elongation of 8.6%, and an elastic modulus of 17.5 GPa (Syverud and Stenius 2009).”
A comparative study of energy consumption and physical properties of microfibrillated cellulose produced by different processing methods (2011, background): “are cycled through the homogenizer approximately 10–20 times (Andresen et al. 2006; Andresen and Stenius 2007; Erkisen et al. 2008; Herrick et al. 1983; Stenstad et al. 2008; Syverud and Stenius 2009; Turbak et al. 1983); overall, it can be stated that homogenization is an energy-intensive process.”
Bio-Based Coatings for Paper Applications (2015, background): “8 mL/(m2·24 h) have been obtained in the past with MFC films of thickness from 21 to 30 μm, satisfying the OTR requirement (10–20 mL/(m2·24 h)) for most practical applications [123].”
Nanocellulose properties and applications in colloids and interfaces (2014, unknown): “The porosity of nanopapers preparedwith CNF is typically very low, this enables their good gas barrier properties [174,175].”
Cellulosic Bionanocomposites: A Review of Preparation, Properties and Applications (2010, background): “The main reason for their use is due to the ease of processability, and their low cost and excellent barrier properties [145].”
