摘要:
The invention relates generally to processes for the production of high-basicity and ultra-high basicity polyaluminum chlorides including aluminum chlorohydrate. The processes can produce products of a wide range of basicities and are particularly useful in producing high basicity products. The process can produce a wide range of solution concentrations and are particularly useful in producing high solution concentrations. The processes described generate high purity products, which are free of by-product salt(s). The processes described herein can also be utilized to produce enhanced efficacy polyaluminum chlorides including aluminum chlorohydrate. When compared to conventional processes for manufacturing these compounds the processes disclosed herein are unique in so far as the disclosed processes do not require aluminum metal as a starting material. The products of the processes are suitable in applications including water purification, catalysts, and antiperspirants. In addition, the invention is directed to the products prepared by the processes described herein.
摘要:
A method of and substances for reducing pitch in pulping and papermaking operations, particularly in furnishes made by mechanical pulping processes containing wood pulp in amounts greater than about 10% by weight, are disclosed. The method comprises adding to a pitch-containing furnish a stable, water dispersible particulate composite substance prepared by irreversibly adsorbing a water soluble cationic polymer, e.g., a poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride), onto an essentially water insoluble particulate substrate, e.g., kaolin, thereby rendering the cationic polymer insoluble and immobile, the cationic polymer being sufficiently electropositive so that the particulate composite pitch control substance exhibits a zeta potential of at least about +30 mV, and preferably from about +60 mV to about +80 mV, the amount of the composite substance added to the furnish being effective to finely disperse pitch for removal as finely-dispersed pitch-containing aggregates in a paper sheet produced from said furnish.Further improvements in pitch control can be achieved using these particulate composite pitch control substances together with alum and/or relatively high molecular weight alkylene oxide polymers, and other desirable effects, including improved fines retention, better drainage and lower waste treatment costs are also obtained when practicing this method.
