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.

The present invention relates to a non-woven fabric, a method for producing a non-woven fabric, a wipe or tissue and uses thereof as well as a disinfecting method, in particular against bacteria and viruses, such as coronaviruses including severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The non-woven fabric comprises pulp fibers and/or cellulosic fibers, a binder, a cationic polymer, and a disinfecting agent.

The present invention relates to a sheet-like element suitable for use in a food packaging, comprising a coating layer comprising surface-reacted calcium carbonate. The coating layer is adapted for being loaded with an antimicrobial active composition, such as an essential oil. The present invention further relates to a coating layer comprising surface-reacted calcium carbonate loaded with an antimicrobial active composition suitable for use in a food packaging, as well as to a process for the manufacture of said sheet-like element, a sheet-like element supply device, a food packaging comprising said sheet-like element, the use of said sheet-like element in a food packaging and the use of said sheet-like element for achieving an antimicrobial and/or antifungal and/or anti-mould and/or antifouling effect in a food packaging.

A treatment solution includes a carrier liquid, and an antifungal agent comprising on of tolnaftate, terbinafine hydrochloride, and miconazole nitrate, the antifungal agent having a concentration of at least 1 wt % of the solution, wherein the treatment solution is alcohol free.

The present invention relates to microorganism control field in process for treatment of pulp and/or water in paper-making process. More specifically, the present invention provides a microorganism control system, which comprises a first component and a second component which are separately provided, the first component comprises a stabilized halogen-containing bactericidal agent (e.g., a stabilized hypochlorite), and the second component comprises an aminosulfonic acid reagent (e.g., aminosulfonic acid). The present invention further provides a method for controlling microorganism in process for treatment of pulp and/or water in papermaking process, which comprises using the microorganism control system of the present invention.

A method and apparatus for manufacturing food wrap paper. A paper web is formed and its first side is subjected to on-line surface treating by applying barrier material such that a water vapor and grease resistant barrier coating is formed onto the paper web. The forming and on-line surface treating are made so that after the on-line surface treating, the paper web has basis weight of 25.5 g/m.sup.2 to 34 g/m.sup.2 when measured in balance moisture.
