The Properties of Paper Coating Layers that Contain Cellulose Nanofibrils

摘要

1. Steady shear viscosity and yield stresses increases with CNF content more than with starch. 2. CNF added to a coating drastically increases the low shear rate viscosity, but coatings are quite shear thinning. 3. Some improvements in pick strength and stiffness. Not as large as expected possibly linked to the brittle nature of the structures.
