Objective
This project is directed towards the manufacture of tissue products with enhanced wettability, absorbency, storage duration and human contact friendliness. The innovative feature of the project consists on the attempt to shift from wet chemistry to dry gas phase-chemistry, thus minimizing use of chemicals, of water, of energy and produced waste. Lignocellulosic fibers and tissue plies will be surface modified to obtain the required functionalities and properties. Surface modification will be conducted under electrical discharge conditions in nitrogen containing active gas additives. Two types of electrical discharges will be used. The well-known Dielectric Barrier Discharge and the Micro Hallow Glow Discharge. The later will be developed and used in this area for the first time within this project.
