First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of manufacturing a detectable cellulosic food packaging film, which cellulosic film comprises detectable particles incorporated therein, wherein the method comprises the following steps:
- (i) a first step of introducing detectable particles into a solution or dispersion comprising at least one of a cellulose and a cellulose precursor or derivative in the presence of at least one disversant, wherein the detectable particles are magnetic and are detectable by a metal detection device and wherein the dispersant is selected among surface-active detergents and polymers,(ii) followed by a second step of regenerating and recovering cellulose from the solution or dispersion in the presence of the detectable particles, so as to obtain a detectable cellulosic food packaging film comprising the detectable particles incorporated therein in homogeneous distribution.
