Abstract
Containers and lids made from cellulose fibers and cellulose ester fibers are provided that have enhanced air permeability, stiffness, R-heat insulation values, or thickness at equivalent grammage basis weights are provided, or alternatively, maintaining one or more of these properties while lowering the basis weight of the containers or lids. The container and lids with this synthetic fiber can be biodegradable when made with cellulose ester fibers having a degree of substitution of not more than 2.5. Examples of such containers are food packaging such as hot or cold delivery boxes.
