ABSTRACT
Cellulose micro/nanofibril (MNFC) films are an interesting alternative to plastic-based films for application in biodegradable packaging. In this study, we aimed to produce and characterize MNFC films obtained from alkaline-pretreated rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis) waste and Eucalyptus sp. commercial pulp. MNFC and films were evaluated regarding microstructure; crystallinity; stability; and physical, optical, mechanical, and barrier properties. A combined quality index (QI) was also calculated. Eucalyptus MNFC suspensions were more stable than H. brasiliensis. Both films had a hydrophobic surface (>90°) and high grease resistance (oil kit 12). H. brasiliensis films had lower transparency (26.4 %) and high crystallinity (∼89 %), while Eucalyptus films had lower permeability and higher mechanical strength. The QI of MNFC was 51 ± 5 for H. brasiliensis and 55 ± 4 for Eucalyptus, showing that both types of raw material have potential for application in the packaging industry and in the reinforcement of composites, as well as for high value-added applications in products made from special materials.
