• F2 (according to the invention): 30% by weight of latex 1003 + 1% by weight of NFC obtained in Example 1 + 69% by weight of water, relative to the total weight of the formulation.
• the pH of the medium is adjusted to 7.
• F1 has a viscosity of less than 10 mPa.s while the viscosity of F2 is around 4500 mPa.s.
• the viscosities are evaluated using a viscometer of the type
• Persoz hardness is determined according to standard NFT 30-016: hardness is measured after more than 8 days of ambient drying at 3 different places on the plate. Each measurement corresponds to the average of 3 measurements. The results indicate the time (in seconds) that the pendulum takes to dampen its oscillation from an angle of 12 ° to an angle of 4 °.
• the adhesion on a support is determined by a grid test according to ISO 2409 standard: the films were drawn on a steel plate. The test consists of using a cutter to criss-cross the film with 2 series of 6 perpendicular lines spaced 1 mm apart and to tear off this grid with adhesive tape. The note goes from 0 (no tearing) to 4 (tearing about 50% of the grid).
• the formulation F2 which includes the NFC additives of the invention therefore corresponds to a material which could serve as a base for aqueous varnish.
• the F2 formulation obtained is stable. Of pseudo-plastic character, it spreads easily on the supports. The film has good adhesion and good flexibility with a touch that is neither greasy nor sticky.
