The present invention relates to a method for the production of a film comprising microfibrillated cellulose, wherein the method comprises the steps of; providing a suspension comprising between 70 weight-% to 100 weight-% of microfibrillated cellulose based on total dry weight, forming a fibrous web of said suspension, drying the web in a drying equipment wherein the web is at least partly dried at a drying rate above 75 kg(H.sub.2O)/m.sup.2/h by use of hot air whereby a film is formed. The invention also relates to a film produce according to the method and a paper or paperboard substrate comprising said film.

The invention relates to the papermaking art and, in particular, to the manufacture of paper substrates, paper-containing articles such as file folders, having improved reduction or inhibition in the growth of microbes, mold and/or fungus.

A carrier material has a resin layer arranged on a side of the carrier material. The resin layer includes a formaldehyde resin, a polymer selected from a group containing polyacrylates, polyepoxides, polyesters, polyurethanes, and long-chain silanols, and at least one silane-containing compound of general formula (I), R.sub.a SiX.sub.(4-a), and/or the hydrolysis product thereof, where X is H, OH, or a hydrolyzable residue selected from the group comprising halogen, alkoxy, carboxy, amino, monoalkylamino or dialkylamino, aryloxy, acyloxy, alkylcarbonyl; R is a non-hydrolyzable organic residue R selected from the group comprising alkyl, aryl, alkenyl, substituted and unsubstituted alkynyl, cycloalkyl, which can be interrupted by O or NH; and where R can have a functional group Q selected from a group containing a hydroxy, ether, amino, monoalkylamino, dialkylamino, anilino, amide, carboxy, mercapto, alkoxy, aldehyde, alkylcarbonyl, epoxide, alkenyl, alkynyl, acryl, acryloxy, methacryl, methacryloxy, cyano, and isocyano group, and a is 0-3.

Dry processing of cellulose fibers in an attritor mill produces small cellulose particles with properties useful for increasing the bulk of paperboard products. In contrast with the usual behaviour of small particles, the dry attritor-processed particles exhibit a further benefit of good drainage on a paper machine. Comparisons are made for the modulus, smoothness, and density of paperboard made with and without the dry-attrited cellulose particles.
