A tray wrapped in a cellulose-based (paper) wrapper is about to be loaded into a hydrogen peroxide gas plasma sterilizer. What is the problem?

Hydrogen peroxide is readily absorbed by cellulose materials such as paper, linen, and cotton, which strips sterilant from the chamber and causes cycle cancellation, so only polypropylene wrap, compatible pouches, and approved containers are used. The issue is absorption, not toxic residue formation or melting, since the process runs at low temperature. Adding a second cellulose layer makes the absorption problem worse.
