Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) has a good film-forming ability, where the film is strong and light. In addition, the films are opaque, translucent or even transparent depending on the thickness of the film and type of MFC. They also show good oxygen barrier properties.
The preparation of microfibrillar cellulose (MFC) films by filtration on a polyamide filter cloth, in a dynamic sheet former and as a surface layer on base paper is described. Experimental evidence of the high tensile strength, density and elongation of films formed by MFC is given.
manufacture of nanocellulose films. MFC films are made from a water-based gel containing cel-lulose microfibrils. There are three methods for making MFC . films (Guezennec 2012): (1) handsheet using a lab form, (2) filtration, and (3) casting-evaporation. The Technical Center of Paper graciously gave the author three types of 2% cellu-
Interest for microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) is exponentially increasing. Nano-scale dimensions and ability to form a strong entangled nanoporous network. New sources, new mechanical processes, new pre- and post-treatments induce new types of MFC materials for industrialization. Focus on the barrier properties of MFC used as films, in ...
Mechanical, optical and barrier properties of nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) and microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) films were studied in order to understand their potential for packaging and functional printing applications.

Microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) is a versatile, 100% renewable wood fibre-based material that can be used, for example, as a sustainable barrier solution for liquid packaging, replacing aluminium and plastics. VTT and Stora Enso demonstrated that MFC can be applied on a high-volume scale to a continuous production process.
