  • METHOD OF MODIFYING NANOFIBRILLAR CELLULOSE COMPOSITION
    Publication number: 20160176989
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for modifying nanofibrillar cellulose composition, comprising—preparing fibrous dispersion of ionically charged nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC), and—applying heat treatment at a temperature of at least 90° C. to the fibrous dispersion until the viscosity of NFC starts to decrease. The viscosity of the heat-treated NFC is reversible by applying shear forces to the NFC.
