Abstract: A method for the manufacturing of nanocellulose. The method includes a first modification of the cellulose material, where the cellulose fibers are treated with an aqueous electrolyte-containing solution of an amphoteric cellulose derivative. The modification is followed by a mechanical treatment. By using this method for manufacturing nanocellulose, clogging of the mechanical apparatus is avoided. Also the nanocellulose is manufactured in accordance with the method and uses of the cellulose.

Abstract: The invention relates to compositions for coating of printing paper, said compositions comprising microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) and one or more polysaccharide hydrocolloids, and use of said compositions. Further, the invention relates to coated paper, comprising a first layer of polysaccharide hydrocolloid(s) and a second layer of MFC, and use of said paper. A method for reducing the linting and/or dusting of a paper is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a composite material having reduced mechanosorptive creep includes the following steps: a) mixing fibers of a lignocellulosic material with a thermoplastic material where the thermoplastic material is in fiber form; b) adding the mixture made in step a) onto a wet web, thus forming a composite material; and c) hot pressing of the composite material. The composite material having reduced mechanosorptive creep being the manufacturing result of the method, and the use of the method and the composite material are described.

Abstract: A method for treatment of chemical pulp for the manufacturing of microfibrillated cellulose includes the following steps: a) providing a hemicellulose containing pulp, b) refining the pulp in at least one step and treating the pulp with one or more wood degrading enzymes at a relatively low enzyme dosage, and c) homogenizing the pulp thus providing the microfibrillated cellulose. According to a second aspect of the invention a microfibrillated cellulose obtainable by the method according to the first aspect is provided. According to a third aspect of the invention, use of the microfibrillated cellulose according to the second aspect in food products, paper products, composite materials, coatings or in rheology modifiers (e.g. drilling muds) is provided.

Abstract: A process for the production of paper from an aqueous suspension containing cellulosic fibers, and optional fillers, which comprises draining the suspension to obtain a paper web and subjecting the obtained paper web to impulse pressing by passage through at least one press nip having at least one heated roll which is in contact with the web and heated to a temperature above 100° C., wherein a chemical system comprising a polymer component and micro- or nanoparticles are added to the suspension or the paper web before the paper web passes the press nip of the impulse unit.
