摘要:
The invention relates to a method of making paper or paperboard comprising the steps of; a. providing a stock suspension; b. adding a mixture of alkali-metal silicate and precipitated calcium carbonate to said stock suspension; c. adding an acidic media to said stock suspension substantially directly before and/or after step (b) d. forming a web of the stock suspension obtained in step (d) e. drying said web. The addition of a mixture of alkali-metal silicate and PCC and of an acidic media to the stock suspension in accordance with the invention improves the bonding between the fibers and the filler (PCC), whereby problems related to dusting is decreased. Moreover, the method enables the addition of a higher amount of fillers to the paper without substantially affecting the strength.

The present invention discloses an in-line production method for providing a retention agent into a liquid flow of a stock suspension and into the short circulation of a paper making machine, wherein the method comprises the steps of: (i) providing a liquid flow of a stock suspension; and (ii) feeding at least one additive into said liquid flow of the stock suspension, wherein said retention agent is formed directly in said stock suspension. The at least one additive may be added to the stock suspension e.g. as a liquid flow. The retention agent provided by the method of the invention may further improve the control of the dewatering rate and subsequently the strength properties of the paper. By this method there is provided a way of forming a retention agent directly into the stock suspension. The need of transporting, e.g. a readymade solution of a retention agent is thereby abolished, and thus the retention aid may be formed in a very cost-efficient way. Further as the retention agent is formed directly into the stock suspension it may very quickly and efficiently adhere to the fine particles, or the filler in the stock suspension and thus a more efficient effect may be achieved.

A method for inhibiting the crystallization of boric acid is provided. Boric acid is dissolved in water and a vitrifying agent, such as an amino alcohol or amino acid, to form an aqueous mixture which is then dried to form a vitreous boric acid-containing residue. This mixture, when applied to a surface and allowed to dry on the surface, forms a vitreous boric acid-containing coating which is readily adherent to the surface, or if allowed to penetrate into a porous substrate, deposits a vitreous boric acid-containing residue within the substrate upon drying. The vitreous boric acid-containing residue provides beneficial properties, including for example improved fire retardancy and biocidal protection, to a variety of materials such as cotton batting, cellulose, and wood and paper products and gypsum wallboard.

The present invention relates to an acid-stabilized calcium carbonate slurry having a pH of less than 7, preferably between about 6 and about 7, containing water, calcium carbonate, preferably precipitated calcium carbonate, and an acid-stabilizer of a water soluble calcium salt, a weak acid, a chelating agent, a weak acid capable of chelating calcium ion, or a mixture thereof. The acid-stabilizer is present in an amount sufficient to provide an aqueous calcium carbonate slurry having an increased calcium ion concentration and an acidic pH. In a typical acid-stabilized calcium carbonate slurry of the invention, the acid-stabilizer is present in an amount sufficient to provide a calcium ion concentration of about 1 millimolar to about 5 molar, preferably from about 1 to about 120 millimolar. The invention also relates to a method of making the acid-stabilized calcium carbonate slurry of the invention, to a method of forming a filled paper, that includes the step of adding the acid-stabilized calcium carbonate slurry of the invention to a papermaking pulp in a process for making acid paper, and to a filled paper produced according to the method of the invention.

摘要:
The invention concerns a method for obtaining fibres integral with calcium carbonate particles which consists in contacting the fibres to be treated with carbon dioxide generators and with at least a composition containing Ca++ ions capable of reacting with the carbon dioxide so as to obtain 'in fine' a calcium carbonate precipitate 'in situ' on the fibres. Preferably, calcium bicarbonate is used as carbon dioxide generator. The invention also concerns a method for eliminating calcium carbonate from other insoluble substances contained in various aqueous media, and derived in particular from papers to be recycled, and de-inking sludge which consists in injecting CO¿2? in the medium to be treated, solubilizing the calcium carbonate into calcium bicarbonate, separating the calcium bicarbonate formed by filtering the medium after reaction.
