摘要:
A method and a machine are described for drying of fibrous web, especially suitable for high speed machines producing printing papers. High drying rates are obtained by subsequently pressing the two surfaces of wet web (5) onto two large diameter dryer cylinders (1, 2) heated to between 100 and 150 °C. In the first nip, the web (5) is pressed on the dryer cylinder (1) by a felted press roll (3), while an unfelted smooth roll (4) is used to press the web (5) on the second dryer (2). Drying rates obtained when practicing the invention are substantially greater than those found in conventional dryer sections. The product obtained according to this method is 30 % stronger than the conventionally dried uncalendered paper, and without calendering has a smoothness and gloss similar to those of calendered conventional papers.

There is taught a method and apparatus for a drying of a continuous moist web (18) such as paper wherein the web is passed through a nip formed of two moving surfaces (10,16), one of these surfaces (10) being a relatively impermeable material heated to a temperature of at least 120°C, the other surface (16) being formed of a relatively porous material and being maintained at a temperature below 100°C, while maintaining a pressure on the moist web sufficient to prevent blowoff.

Processes for preparing water-soluble papermaking polymer additives having a multitude of free amino groups effective to form cationically charged complexes with components of a pulp suspension are described, comprising: reacting ammonia and epichlorohydrin (ECH) with ammonia in excess to yield a starburst polymer with a molecular weight of 3000-106; reacting ECH and ammonia to produce tris(3-chloro-2-hydroxypropylamine) and reacting this with a diamine to yield a water-soluble branched polymer with a molecular weight of 3000-106; reacting polyepichlorohydrin with a variety of amines, a polyol or ammonia to yield linear polymers, cross-linked polymers and polyamines. The additives are used as agents for improving retention, drainage, product strength and paper machine operation in paper manufacture. Under neutral or acidic conditions these primary amino groups become cationic, which assures good adsorption of the polymer onto anionic fibres and fines used for production of paper or paperboard. By adsorbing on several fibres or fines, the polymer can increase the retention of fines and fillers. Primary amino groups of these polymers can also form chemical bonds with carbonyl groups of cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose, which are especially abundant in the fibres and fines of mechanical pulps. The cross-linking of fibres and fines by chemical bonds can increase the initial strength of wet web and the strength of rewetted paper.
摘要:
A papermaking stock and a method for improving the retention of pulp fines, mineral fillers, dispersed wood resin, and/or synthetic hydrophobic stickies and cellulose fibers in a cellulosic fiber sheet, employs dendrimeric polymers for increasing the retention of fines, fillers, dispersed hydrophobic particles, and cellulosic fibers. The application in the paper industry provides a means of (1) increasing the retention of fillers in paper and decreasing the loss of filler materials in white water waste from papermaking; (2) increasing the retention of cellulosic fines and fibers in the paper-making process; increasing drainage on the paper machine; and (3) removing a significant fraction of the wood resin, plastics, and stickies from the process stream thus enabling a greater extent of reuse of filtrates and, hence, less effluents from mills, fewer problems from wood resins such as deposit formation, loss of strength of product, and contamination of product with dirt particles.

A process using an amphoteric ion-exchange resin, also known as a "snake-cage polyelectrolyte" resin, contained in an ion retardation unit (9) separates kraft white liquor (8) into sulphide-rich (12) and caustic-rich (10) components. The sulphide-rich component (12) can be used in the initial stage of pulping (1), pretreatment of wood chips prior to pulping, or it can be used to make polysulphide-rich liquor. The caustic-rich component (10) can be used in the final delignification phase, in place of sodium hydroxide or white liquor in oxygen delignification, pH adjustment and flue gas scrubbing. The same system can be used to separate green (6) and polysulphide liquors (8a) into sulphide-rich and sulphide-poor components, and to remove sulphide from other mill caustic streams contaminated with sulphide.
摘要:
A method and an apparatus for detecting plugged sites and holes and for measuring of the water permeability properties of pervious machine fabrics is disclosed. Plugged sites in a permeable fabric are detected by sensing water pressure pulses occurring in the nozzle at the moment when a stream of water flowing through the nozzle contacts a plugged site on a fast running fabric. The apparatus can be used on-line to simultaneously detect plugged sites and holes on a moving pervious fabric while monitoring its water permeability properties.
摘要:
A method for bleaching cellulosic and lignocellulosic pulp using hydrogen peroxide as a bleaching reagent, utilizes a two-step reaction, viz. a short high temperature step at a pressure sufficient to suppress boiling and a longer atmospheric pressure reduced temperature step to consume a substantial portion of the hydrogen peroxide remaining after the short phase. The method includes the steps of introducing pulp (15), at a consistency of 10 %-18 %, to a mixer (100) in which the pulp is heated to a temperature above 100 DEG C; adding sufficient sodium hydroxide to bring the pulp to a pH of 8.5; adding sufficient hydrogen peroxide (36) to equal from about 0.5 %-5.0 %, by weight, of the pulp; passing the pulp through a pressurized reactor column (400) at a rate providing a reaction time in the column of between 1 and 30 minutes; and depositing the pulp in a reaction tower and allowing the reaction to proceed for 1-5 hours until a substantial portion of the residual hydrogen peroxide has been consumed. It may be desirable to introduce the pulp to a mixer and add alkali to reactivate residual hydrogen peroxide by bringing the pulp to a pH of at least 9 between bleaching steps.
摘要:
This invention provides, in an easy manner, a film-like moulded article which shows a selective reflection of a wavelength and circularly polarized light. A suitable environment for formation of a liquid crystalline phase is prepared by forming a moulded article (thin film-like moulded article) using a cellulose derivative which can form the liquid crystalline phase (e.g. a water-insoluble cellulose derivative such as ethyl cellulose), and allowing the moulded article to absorb a highly volatile organic solvent by contact with its vapour. After formation of the liquid crystalline phase, removal of the organic solvent provides the object moulded article. The thin film-like moulded article can be employed for an optical element of a circular polarized light-generator or a decoration material.
摘要:
Solid films with novel optical properties are produced from colloidal suspensions of cellulose crystallites; the colloidal suspensions are prepared by acid hydrolysis of crystalline cellulose under carefully controlled conditions; the solid materials possess a helicoidal arrangement of the constituent crystallites; by appropriate selection of conditions for preparation and treatment of the colloidal suspensions, solid films are produced that reflect circularly polarized visible light; the wavelength of the reflected light can be controlled to give colours across the visible spectrum from red to violet, and if necessary to infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths. The reflected iridescent colours arise from optical interference effects, and change with the viewing angle; this makes the materials ideally suited for optical authenticating devices, since no printing or photocopying technique can reproduce this effect; furthermore, they are easily distinguishable from other optical interference devices since thay have additional optical properties.
