Japanese papers (JPs) are among the most common materials used for the restoration of historical papers. However, they have low transparency and may structure the paper surface. To overcome the limitations of JPs, in the present work films of cellulose nanofibers with and without lignin (LCNFs and CNFs, respectively) were explored. For this, chemically different LCNFs (carboxylated by TEMPO-mediated oxidation using variable oxidant amount and sulfated with deep eutectic solvent) and two reference CNFs were produced from Eucalyptus kraft pulps. Lignin slightly hindered the introduction of carboxyl groups into the cellulose structure, but did not affect the incorporation of sulfate groups. (L)CNFs gave films with better mechanical properties than those determined for three types of JP (tensile strength of 79–142 MPa (±11) vs 3.5–13.0 MPa (±0.4) and Young's modulus of 4900–5900 MPa (±300) vs 240–1800 MPa (±70)). Additionally, the (L)CNF films exhibited lower water vapor transmission rates (132–312 g.m−2.day−1) compared to the JPs (685–719 g.m−2.day−1), and a higher transparency (up to 89% and ≤82% for JPs). Except for the thermal stability, all properties studied favored (L)CNF films over JPs, indicating their strong potential for restoration/conservation applications. This systematic comparison between the properties of (L)CNF films and JPs has never been conducted before.
