Advances in Pulp and Paper Technologies.

For this, various technologies have been studied, such as thin-film coating, which mixes nanocellulose with a coating color to create a gas barrier, or imparts water and moisture resistance by coating the paper in a biodegradable polymer [[4]]. To replace plastics in paper, the produced paper must not only have gas barrier properties, water and moisture resistance, and preservation properties like plastics [[3]], but also have the property to be decomposed quickly when thrown away. It is of great honor to present this Editorial for the Special Issue "Advances in Pulp and Paper Technologies". [Extracted from the article]
