摘要:
The invention provides protein adhesives, and methods of making and using such adhesives. The protein adhesives contain a protein-bonding agent and plant protein composition, such as an isolated water-soluble protein fraction or ground plant meal obtained from plant biomass. The protein-bonding agent can be an anhydride compound, carboxylic acid compound, carboxylate salt compound, or combinations thereof. The protein adhesives are useful in bonding together lignocellulosic materials and other types of materials.

Disclosed herein are cellulase compositions useful as papermaking performance additives for improving paper dry strength of a paper product and reducing refining energy in papermaking processes, and improving paper production. These cellulase compositions are formulated using cellulase, papermaking contaminant control polymers, protein stabilizers and cellulase enhancers. These cellulase compositions measure higher in endo-cellulase activity with better stability than conventional cellulase, and have shown differentiating performance in improving paper dry strength properties versus cellulase alone.

The invention relates to enzymes having xylanase, mannanase and/or glucanase activity, e.g., catalyzing hydrolysis of internal β-1,4-xylosidic linkages or endo-β-1,4-glucanase linkages; and/or degrading a linear polysaccharide beta-1,4-xylan into xylose. Thus, the invention provides methods and processes for breaking down hemicellulose, which is a major component of the cell wall of plants, including methods and processes for hydrolyzing hemicelluloses in any plant or wood or wood product, wood waste, paper pulp, paper product or paper waste or byproduct. In addition, methods of designing new xylanases, mannanases and/or glucanases and methods of use thereof are also provided. The xylanases, mannanases and/or glucanases have increased activity and stability at increased pH and temperature.
摘要:
A composition for coating a cellulosic packaging material that includes water, starch at a concentration of about 10% to about 17% by weight, gelatin at a concentration of about 10% to about 12% by weight, glycerol at a concentration of about 5% to about 11% by weight, one or more protein ingredients at a concentration of about 5% to about 10% by weight, and one or more porophors at a concentration of about 3% to about 5.5% by weight. The present invention also relates to a method of preparing the composition for coating cellulosic packaging material.
摘要:
In order to provide an improved powder coating process using gelatin particles for the production of coatings or shaped bodies based on gelatin, it is proposed that the gelatin particles are produced by drying an aqueous gelatin solution, wherein the gelatin does not pass through a gel state before or during the drying.
摘要:
An adhesive composition substantially free of formaldehyde, comprising at least one bio-derived component, at least one multivalent cation and at least one polymer having a crosslinkable group, wherein the polymer having at least one crosslinkable group is substantially free of epichlorohydrin.
摘要:
A composition for treating paper products comprising protein particulate, colloidal pigment, synthetic latex polymer, and preservative is described, as well as methods and an apparatus using the composition for such treatments, and products obtained thereby. The treated paper products preferably have improved strength, water holdout, and/or ink holdout, amongst other advantages and benefits.
摘要:
The invention relates to a xylanase originating from a Bacillus strain. This xylanase is active over a wide range of acid and basic pH. The invention also relates to new strains of microorganisms producing this xylanase and to methods for preparing this xylanase. The invention also relates to a DNA molecule and to an expression vector or an integration vector containing this DNA molecule. The invention also relates to uses of the latter and to compositions containing it.
摘要:
The invention includes a method that provides a low cost aqueous solution of solubilized collagen by the steps of: (a) providing an aqueous ground slurry of insoluble collagen and adjusting the pH of said slurry to obtain activity for a proteolytic enzyme added in Step b; (b) adding said proteolytic enzyme to said pH adjusted slurry; (c) reacting the slurry and enzyme of Step b and/or recycled insoluble collagen and enzyme from Step e at a temperature, T, and for a time, t, effective for forming a solution increased in solubilized collagen; (d) adding additional water and insoluble collagen to said solution of Step c and mixing; (e) separating at least some of the solution of Step d containing solubilized collagen from insoluble collagen, whereby at least a portion of said insoluble collagen and proteolytic enzyme is recycled to Step c, and the separated solution containing solubilized collagen is withdrawn as product; an alternative embodiment provides for the direct production of solubilized collagen without the recycle step.
