Abstract
In our study, the binding properties of fillers were
improved by using cellulose nano- (CNF) and microfibrils
(CMF). Savings in costs, materials and energy are looked
for by increasing the filler content of the studied paper
grade (SC-paper). The objective of this study was to
create mechanically stable and durable aggregates that
simultaneously enhanced dry and wet strength properties,
filler retention and dewatering compared to traditional
fillers. By developing the binding PCC-CMF/CNF
aggregates, it was possible to increase the filler
content of papers from 30% to 40% and to reduce variable
costs in SC-paper production. The new material
combinations also open up possibilities beyond paper
applications.
