The invention relates to a method for production of an auto-adhesively bonded, porous, pressure-resistant molding made from comminuted lignocellulosic fibrous materials that are processed at temperatures between 120 C. and 180 C. and a pressure between 2 bar and 8 bar to yield a fiber suspension that is subsequently filled into a mold or applied to a carrier and dried without the addition of a synthetic binder.

A method of producing paper and board by using at least one water-soluble amphoteric polymer is provided. The water-soluble amphoteric polymer is obtained by copolymerizing a monomer mixture containing a) at least one N-vinylcarboxamide, b) at least one monoethylenically unsaturated monomer having at least one free acid group or at least one acid group in salt form, c) optionally at least one monoethylenically unsaturated monomer other than components (a) and (b), and d) optionally at least one compound having two or more ethylenically unsaturated double bonds, and then partly or wholly hydrolyzing the COR.sup.1 groups of the polymer. The cationic monomer units and the anionic monomer units differ in their respective molar fractions, each based on the total number of moles of all monomer units, by not more than 10 mol % in absolute terms.

Methods of increasing formability of a palm sheath material, methods of producing a palm sheath-based product, and palm sheath foodware produced thereby. The formability of a palm sheath material is increased by treating the palm sheath material with a fluid substance that weakens bonds between cellulose fibers of the palm sheath material by partially eliminating lignin and hemicellulose of the palm sheath material. The treated palm sheath material can be used to form various products, such as foodware products by deforming the treated palm sheath material into a shape. Advantageously, the treated palm sheath material can typically be deformed by stretching or punching using dies to a height to diameter aspect ratio of greater than 0.2 and/or to a limit strain of the palm sheath material greater than 0.38.

The invention relates to a method for controlling hydrophobic particles in aqueous environment in paper or board manufacture. The method comprises preparing an aqueous stock comprising natural fibrous material, feeding the stock to a wire section, where a fibrous web is formed by draining excess water through a wire, and adding a control chemical to aqueous environment at least in one dosage point between the preparation of the stock and the exit of the web from the wire section. The control chemical comprises performic acid, which is added to the aqueous stock, which has consistency of at least 3 weight-%.
