Definitions
- the present invention relates to a film- forming composition and a polymeric film or coating comprising hemicellulose. It also relates to the use of said film or coating as an oxygen, aroma or grease barrier. Further, the invention relates to a method for the manufacture of a polymeric film or coating comprising hemicellulose, as well as to a method for improving the liquid/moisture resistance properties of hemicellulose.
- a barrier material which has low permeability to oxygen. Furthermore, it is desirable that the material is flexible, mechanically resistant, transparent and of low cost. Also other barrier properties, such as aroma barrier and grease barrier can be of great importance.
- Hemicelluloses are polysaccharides that are biosynthesized in the majority of plants, where they act as a matrix material present between the cellulose micro fibrils and as a linkage between lignin and cellulose. Hemicelluloses have been commercially used as sweetening agents, thickeners and emulsifiers in food. So far the non-food utilization of hemicelluloses has been very limited. For example, not until WO 2004/083286 have they been suggested to be used commercially for the preparation of polymeric materials for packaging. As disclosed in WO 2004/083286, films and coatings based on hemicellulose are good oxygen barriers. WO 2004/083286 also describes a method to improve mechanical properties.
- Hemicellulose interacts with liquid/moisture and the permeability of oxygen, aroma, and grease increases at high relative humidities.
- the water solubility of the material is an advantage in coating processes, but can be a draw-back for many packaging applications.

- Oxygen transmission rate measurements were made at 80 % R.H., i.e. a high moisture content and the oxygen permeability was calculated from the oxygen transmission rate and the thickness of the samples.
- the measurement at 80 % R.H. is carried out in the same way as the one at 50 % R.H.
- the film is conditioned until the moisture content has reached equilibrium, and then the oxygen transmission rate through the film is measured while maintaining an ambient moisture content of 80 % R.H.
- This example illustrates the use of alkyl keten dimer (AKD) as hydrophobizing agent.
- Eka AKD alkyl keten dimer
- Three contents of Eka AKD were tested, with and without sorbitol. The contents tested are 0.5 %, 1 %, and 1.5 % AKD.

- the solution was coated onto PET-film (Mylar 800, 36 ⁇ m) using a wire-wound meter bar (K Control Coater). The coating was dried with IR for one to two minutes. The coat weight was obtained by subtracting the surface weight of pure PET-film from the surface weight of coated PET-film. The dry coat weight was 5 g/m .
- the oxygen permeability of the coating was 0.32 (cm 3 ⁇ m) / (m 2 d kPa), which is a very good barrier.
- This example illustrates the production of a xylan-based coating onto a pre-coated substrate consisting of paperboard (Invercoat Creato, Iggesund Paperboard) and further the production of multilayer material for packaging.
- the multilayer material can be used for board based packaging in dry and wet applications.
- the coating was performed using an electrical laboratory coater (K202 Control Coater) with wire-wound meter bars giving varying wet coat weights.

- Low density polyethylene was extruded onto both sides of the coated substrate in a pilot coating equipment.
- the coat weight of low density polyethylene was 40 g/m 2 /side.
- the oxygen transmission rate of the obtained multilayer material was 0.6 cm 3 / (m 2 day atm), which is a very good barrier.
- the oxygen transmission rate is measured in "cc" units (i.e. cm 3 / m 2 24h atm, measured with 100 % O 2 ).
- Example 18 This example illustrates the production of a xylan-based coating onto a corona treated substrate consisting of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), low density polyethylene (LDPE) or polypropylene (PP) and further the evaluation of the effect of the corona treatment on adhesion.
- the coating was made using a wired wound meter bar giving a wet coating of 100 ⁇ m.
- the substrates Prior to coating, the substrates were treated with a FG-2 Ahlbrandt corona system with 2.5 A at a speed of 10 m/min and an output voltage of 56 V.
- the electrodes were at a distance of 1.8 mm from each other.
- a mixture of arabinoxylan and sorbitol in a ratio of 7:3 was solubilized in water at 95 0 C for 30 minutes.
- the dry content of the solution was 12.5%.
- the solution was coated onto the corona treated substrate and dried for two minutes using IR.
- the adhesion between the substrate and the coating was evaluated with a tape test and compared with coatings onto the same substrate that had not been corona treated. Ten measurements were made for each sample.
- a piece of tape was attached to the surface of the coating and pulled rapidly at an angle of 90 degrees. Either the coating was unaffected and the result was then "passed” or the coating was detached from the substrate and then the result was "failed". The results are summarized in the table below.
- This example illustrates the production of a xylan-based coating onto a substrate consisting of polyethylene-coated paper.
- a mixture of arabinoxylan and sorbitol in a ratio of 7:3 was solubilized in water at 95 0 C for 30 minutes.
- the dry content of the solution was 12.5%.
- the solution was coated onto the substrate using a wire -wound meter bar (K Control Coater).
- the coating was dried with IR for one to two minutes.
- the obtained dry coat weight was 7 g/m 2 .
- the grease barrier properties of the coated substrate was evaluated and compared to a non-coated substrate.
- a droplet of essential oil also known as volatile oil and ethereal oil
- the formation of grease stains on the reverse sides of the samples was observed.
- grease stains were formed after two minutes. After 60 minutes the test was interrupted and no grease stains could be observed on the coated substrate.
- the essential oil was used to simulate greasy and aromatic compounds, like for example spices.
- the coated substrate was further used for production of bags, which were filled with aromatic spices. The transmission of aromatic compounds was observed by smelling. The smell was considerably reduced for bags based on coated substrate as compared to bags based on non-coated substrates.
- This example shows that xylan-based coatings can be successively used for packaging of greasy and aromatic products.
- Example 20 This example illustrates the production of a xylan-based coating onto a substrate consisting of paperboard (liquid carton board, Stora Enso). A mixture of arabinoxylan and glycerol in a ratio of 8:2 was solubilized in water at 95 0 C for 30 minutes. The dry content of the solution was 10 %. The solution was coated onto the substrate using a wire-wound meter bar (K Control Coater). The coating was dried using IR for one to two minutes. The obtained dry coat weight was 25 g/m 2 .
