Keep improvement in the papermaking with drainage
The cross reference of related application
The application requires in the rights and interests of the US provisional application 60/640,164 of proposition on December 29th, 2004, and its full content is incorporated herein by reference at this.
Technical field
The present invention relates to use flocculation system to make the method for paper and cardboard by cellulosic material.
Background technology
Keep with drainage is the importance of papermaking.Known certain material can provide keeping and/or water filtering performance of improvement in the production of paper and cardboard.
The manufacturing of cellulosic fiber sheets, especially paper and cardboard comprises the steps: 1) preparation also can contain the aqueous slurry of the cellulose fibre of inorganic mineral extender or pigment; 2) this slurry is deposited on the mobile papermaking wire-cloth or fabric; With 3) form page by drainage by the solid constituent of slurry.
After abovementioned steps, page squeezing and drying are anhydrated further to remove.Usually before page forms step, organic and inorganic chemical are added in the slurry so that papermaking process is cheaper, quicker and/or obtain particular characteristic in final paper product.
Paper industry ongoing effort with the quality of improving paper, increase productivity and reduce manufacturing cost.Before fibre stuff arrives papermaking wire-cloth or fabric, chemicals is added wherein usually and keep to improve drainage/dehydration and solid; These compounds are called retention and/or filter aid.
Drainage or dewater the normally conditioning step of realization faster paper machine speed of fibre stuff on papermaking wire-cloth or fabric.Improved dehydration also can obtain more dry page in squeezing and drying nest, causes energy consumption to reduce.In addition, because this is the step of the final performance of the many pages of decision in papermaking process, retention and/or filter aid can influence the performance of final page.
About solid, at drainage and form in the process of turbulent flow method of paper web, Retention Aid in Papermaking is used for increasing fine furnish solids keeping at the width of cloth.Do not have keeping fully of micro-solid, then they or be lost in the plant chimney stalk or in the white water loop that refluxes the paramount level of accumulation, cause deposit buildup potentially.In addition, inadequate keeping owing to the loss that is intended to be adsorbed on the additive on the fiber has increased the papermaking cost.Additive can provide opacity, intensity, applying glue (sizing) or other desired properties for paper.
High molecular (MW) water-soluble polymer that has cationic charge or anionic charge traditionally is used as retention and filter aid.The immediate development of inorganic particles shows that it better keeps and drainage efficient having than the high MW water-soluble polymer of routine when the retention and filter aid in conjunction with high MW water-soluble polymer.US patent 4,294,885 and 4,388,150 have instructed the purposes of starch polymer and cataloid.US patent 4,643,801 and 4,750,974 have instructed the purposes of the cohesion adhesive of cationic starch, cataloid and anionic polymer.US patent 4,753,710 has been instructed with high MW cationic flocculant flocculation intermittent pulp proportioning, and the batching of flocculation is induced shearing, then bentonite is introduced in the batching.US patent 5,274,055 and 5,167,766 disclose in paper technology organic little polymer with chemical crosslinking as retention and filter aid.
The efficient of used polymer or copolymer changes according to the arrangement in polymer matrix of the type of the monomer of its composition, monomer, the molecular weight and the preparation method of institute's synthetic molecules.
Recently the water solubility copolymer that has been found that preparation under given conditions demonstrates unique physical property.These polymer prepare under the chemical cross-linking agent not having.In addition, this copolymer provides unexpected activity in application-specific (comprising that the papermaking application is as retention and filter aid).The anionic copolymer of described demonstration peculiar property is disclosed among the WO 03/050152A1, and its full content is hereby incorporated by.Cationic and the ampholyte copolymer that demonstrates peculiar property is disclosed in the US sequence 10/728,145, and its full content is hereby incorporated by.

Embodiment
In order to estimate performance of the present invention, utilize synthetic alkali batching to carry out a series of drainage test.This batching is by the commercially available pulp lap (market lap pulp) of hardwood and softwood dried and water and other material and prepare.Finish grind the commercially available pulp lap of hardwood and softwood dried at first, respectively.Then the hardwood of these paper pulp with about 70 weight % is combined in water-bearing media with the ratio of the cork of about 30 weight %.The water-bearing media that is used to prepare batching comprises that the mixture of local hard water and deionized water is to reach representative hardness.The addition of inorganic salts should be this medium the CaCO as 75ppm is provided 3Total alkalinity and 100ppm CaCO 3Hardness.With winnofil (PCC) with typical weight than adding in the intermittent pulp proportioning so that the final batching that contains 80% fiber and 20%PCC filler to be provided.Drainage test mixes with specific mixer speed and adds various chemical constituents in the batching and single component mixing special time is carried out with mechanical mixer by prepare burden.Concrete chemical constituent and dosage are described in the tables of data.Drainage activity of the present invention uses Canadian Standard Freeness (CSF) to measure.Can use the CSF tester, a kind of commercially available instrument (Lorentzen﹠amp; Wettre, Stockholm Sweden) measures relative filtration rate, and perhaps dehydration rate also is known in the art; Standard method of test (tappi test program T-227) is a typical method.The CSF instrument is made up of the straining chamber and the speed measurement funnel that all are installed on the suitable holder.Straining chamber is a cylindrical shape, is furnished with perforated screen and hinge plate in the bottom and is furnished with vacuum-packed twisting on top to cover.Described speed measurement funnel is furnished with bottom outlet and side spout hole.
The test of CSF drainage is carried out with 1 liter of batching.The preparation batching is used for carrying out described external treatment by the CSF instrument among square beaker and mixes so that turbulent flow to be provided.After adding additive and mixing order are finished, the batching of handling is poured in the straining chamber, close top lid and open the plate of bottom at once.Make water freely enter the speed measurement funnel; Surpass by the current of bottom outlet decision and will overflow and be collected in the graduated cylinder by side opening.The value that is produced is represented with milliliter filtrate (ml); The drainage or the dehydration of higher numeric representation higher degree.
Table 1 (as follows) is for example understood purposes of the present invention.Sample is by being prepared as follows: in the batching of preparation as mentioned above per metric ton batching (butt) at first add the 5kg cationic starch (Stalok  400, AE., Staley, Decatur, IL).Per metric ton batching (butt) adding 2.5kg alum (derives from Delta ChemicalCorporation then, Baltimore, the 50% Patent alum solution of MD), per metric ton batching (butt) adds 0.25kg PerForm PC8138 cation type polymer (Hercules Incorporated then, Wilmington, De).
In the listed embodiment of table 1, add interested additive as shown in table 1 then.SP9232 is PerForm  SP9232, a kind of retention and filter aid association polymer (referring to PCT WO03/050152A), and it is Hercules Incorporated, Wilmington, the product of DE; Polyflex is Polyflex CP.3, and is a kind of by Ciba Specialty Chemicals, Tarrytown, the organic fine particles that NY sells; And silica is NP780, a kind of Eka Chemicals, Marietta, the colloidal silicon dioxide products of GA.
