Micro Fibrillated Cellulose (MFC) Films on Metal Surfaces as a Substrate for Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD) Experiments

Abstract

In recent years the application of paper for packaging has been growing steadily. Food packaging underlies special scrutiny, as the package has to prevent the escape of aroma molecules at the one hand and prevent the contamination of the packaged good with unwanted substances on the other hand. For the transfer of organic molecules from the packaging to the food and vice versa one has to look at volatile organic molecules. For transport of such molecules through the porous structure of paper the interaction of the molecules with the surface of the paper fibers plays an important role.
