Definitions
- This invention relates to the use of fine paper sized with a sizing agent comprising a mixture of 2-oxetanone compounds in high speed precision converting on reprographic operations.
- ASA alkenyl succinic anhydride
- ALD alkyl ketene dimer
- AKD's containing one ⁇ -lactone ring
- AKD's are prepared by the dimerization of the alkyl ketenes made from two saturated, straight-chain fatty acid chlorides; the most widely used being prepared from palmitic and/or stearic acid.
- Other ketene dimers such as the alkenyl-based ketene dimer (Aquapel® 421, available from Hercules Incorporated, Wilmington, DE, U.S.A.), have also been used commercially.
- ASA-based sizing agents can be prepared by the reaction of maleic anhydride with a 14 to 18 carbon olefin.
- ASA and AKD sizing agents are commercially successful, they have disadvantages. Both types of sizing agents, particularly the AKD type, have been associated with handling problems in the typical high-speed conversion operations required for the current uses of fine paper made under alkaline conditions (referred to as alkaline fine paper). The problems include reduced operating speed in forms presses and other converting machines, double feeds or jams in high-speed copiers, and registration errors on printing and envelope-folding equipment that operate at high speeds.
- alkaline fine paper produced under acid conditions
- the types of filler and filler addition levels used to make alkaline fine paper differ significantly from those used to make acid fine paper, and can cause differences in paper properties such as stiffness and coefficient of friction, which affect paper handling.
- Sodium chloride is often added to the surface of alkaline fine paper to improve its end-use performance.
- the paper properties affected by papermaking under alkaline conditions that can affect converting and end-use performance include:
- Such billowing involves a divergence of the paper path from the straight line between the rolls, which is two inches (5 cm) above the base plate, causing registration errors and dropped folds in the stacker.
- Typical alkaline AKD sized fine paper using a size furnish of 2.2 lbs. per ton (1 kg per 0.9 metric ton) of paper shows an unacceptable rate-of-billowing, typically of the order of 20 to 80.
- Paper handling rates on other high-speed converting machinery, such as the Hamilton-Stevens continuous forms press, or the Winkler & Dunnebier CH envelope folder also provide numerical measures of convertibility.
- Ketene multimers containing more than one beta-lactone ring have also been disclosed as sizing agents for paper in Japanese Kokai 168991/89 and 168992/89.
- the ketene multimers are said to show improved sizing compared to the ketene dimers previously used.
- the multimers are prepared from a mixture of mono- and dicarboxylic acids. The advantage of a combination of good sizing and good performance on high speed converting or reprographic equipment is not disclosed. These references also do not disclose the specific multimers claimed in the present invention.
- the mixture of 2-oxetanone compounds to be used is the reaction product of a reaction mixture comprising at least one 10-26 carbon linear, saturated alkyl monocarboxylic acid and at least one 8-44 carbon linear, saturated alkyl dicarboxylic acid, wherein the mole ratio of mono- to dicarboxylic acids is 1.0 to 3.5, at least 50% by weight of the 2-oxetanone compounds in the mixture having at least two 2-oxetanone rings.
- the paper used in this invention can be made into sheets of 8 1/2 x 11 inch (21.6 x 28 cm) reprographic cut paper having a basis weight of 15-24 lb/1300 ft 2 (6.8 to 10.9 kg/121 m 2 ) and is capable of running on a high speed laser printer or copier without causing misfeeds or jams at a rate of 5 or less in 10,000.
- the paper used in this invention having a basis weight of 20-24 lb/3000 ft 2 (9.1 to 10.9 kg/279 m 2 ) can be converted to a standard perforated continuous form on a continuous forms press at a press speed of 1300 to 2000 feet (390 m to 600 m) per minute.
- the preferred paper used according to the invention having a basis weight of 20-24 lb/3000 ft 2 (9.1 to 10.9 kg/279 m 2 ) is sized at an addition rate of at least 2.2 lb/ton (1 kg/0.9 metric ton) and can be converted to a standard perforated continuous form on the Hamilton-Stevens continuous forms press at a press speed of at least 1775 feet (541 m) per minute, preferably 1900 feet (579 m) per minute.
- the paper to be used having a basis weight of 20-24 lb/1300 ft 2 (9.1 to 10.9 kg/121 m 2 ) can be converted into at least 900 envelopes per minute, preferably at least 1000 per minute, on a Winkler & Dunnebier CH envelope folder.
- Machine-feed problems on high speed converting machines or during reprographic operations are defined as significant in any specific conversion or reprographic application if they cause misfeeds, poor registration, or jams to a commercially unacceptable degree as will be discussed below, or cause machine speed to be reduced.
- the use according to this invention for making paper under alkaline conditions exhibits levels of sizing comparable to those obtained with current AKD and ASA sizing technology, and gives improved handling performance in typical end-use and converting operations.
- the used 2-oxetanone sizing agents of this invention are a mixture of saturated, linear alkyl ketene dimers and 2-oxetanone multimers of varying molecular weights, at least 50 mole %, preferably 60 mole %, of the compounds in the mixture having at least two 2-oxetanone rings.
- the sizing agent therefore has more reactive sites for covalently bonding with cellulose fibers than conventional AKD and ASA alkaline sizes.
- the mole % of compounds having two or more 2-oxetanone rings increases as the mole ratio of mono- to dicarboxylic acids decreases.
- acid chlorides are formed from a mixture of at least one linear, saturated alkyl monocarboxylic acid and at least one linear, saturated alkylene dicarboxylic acid, using phosphorous trichloride or another conventional chlorinating agent.
- the mole ratio of mono- to dicarboxylic acids is 1.0 to 3.5, preferably 2.5, and more preferably 2.0.
- the acid chlorides are then dehydrochlorinated in the presence of triethylamine or another suitable base, in propylene dichloride or another anhydrous, aprotic solvent, to form the mixture of 2-oxetanone compounds.
- the monocarboxylic acid can be a mixture of C 16 and C 18 linear, saturated alkyl monocarboxylic acids, for example, Emery 135 fatty acids, available from Henkel-Emery, Cincinnati, Ohio, U.S.A. Stable emulsions of these sizing agents can be prepared in the same way as standard AKD emulsions.
- the linear, saturated alkyl monocarboxylic acids used to prepare the 2-oxetanone compounds of this invention have 10-26 carbon atoms, preferably 14-22 carbon atoms, and most preferably 16-18 carbon atoms.
- These acids include, for example, stearic, myristic, palmitic, margaric, pentadecanoic, decanoic (capric), undecanoic, dodecanoic (lauric), tridecanoic, nonadecanoic, arachidic, and behenic acids.
- One or more of these monocarboxylic acids can be used.
- the linear, saturated alkylene dicarboxylic acids used to alkylene prepare the 2-oxetanone multimers of this invention have 8-44 carbon atoms, preferably 9-10, 22 or 36 carbon atoms.
- Dicarboxylic acids with 9-10 carbon atoms are most preferred.
- Such dicarboxylic acids include, for example, sebacic, azelaic, dodecanedioic, suberic, brazylic, and docosanedioic acids, and EMPOL 1008 dimer acids (C 36 ), available from Henkel-Emery, Cincinnati, Ohio, U.S.A.
- EMPOL 1008 dimer acids C 36
- One or more of these dicarboxylic acids can be used.
- the alkaline fine paper used according to the invention contains a water soluble inorganic salt of an alkali metal, preferably sodium chloride (NaCl), as well as alum and precipitated calcium carbonate.
- an alkali metal preferably sodium chloride (NaCl)
- NaCl sodium chloride
- the paper used in this invention will often be made without NaCl.
- the sizing agents used in this invention can be applied as internal sizing agents or surface sizing agents.
- Internal sizing involves adding the size to the paper pulp slurry before sheet formation, while surface sizing involves immersion of the paper in the sizing agent or spraying the sizing agent on the paper, followed by drying at elevated temperatures using know drying techniques.
- the paper used in this invention is generally sized at a size addition rate of at least 0.5 lb (0.23 kg), preferably at least 1.5 lb (0.68 kg), and more preferably at least 2.2 lb/ton (1 kg/0.9 metric tons) or higher.

- Paper for evaluation on the IBM 3800 was prepared on a pilot paper machine.
- the pulp furnish (three parts Southern hardwood kraft pulp and one part Southern softwood kraft pulp) was refined to 425 ml Canadian Standard Freeness (C.S.F.) using a double disk refiner.
- C.S.F. Canadian Standard Freeness
- the filler to the pulp furnish (10% medium particle-size precipitated calcium carbonate)
- the pH (7.8-8.0) the alkalinity (150-200 p.p.m.), and hardness (100 p.p.m.) of the papermaking stock were adjusted using the appropriate amounts of NaHCO 3 , NaOH, and CaCl 2 .
- the mixture of 2-oxetanone compounds was prepared by methods used conventionally to prepare commercial alkyl ketene dimers, i.e, acid chlorides from a mixture of a linear, saturated fatty acid and a linear, saturated alkylene dicarboxylic acid are formed, using a conventional chlorination agent, and the acid chlorides are dehydrochlorinated in the presence of a suitable base.
- Emulsions of the mixture of 2-oxetanone compounds were prepared according to the disclosure of U.S. Patent 4,317,756, with particular reference to Example 5 of the patent.
- the wet presses were set at 40 p.s.i. (2.8 kg/cm 2 ) gauge. A dryer profile that gave 1-2% moisture at the size press and 4-6% moisture at the reel was used (77 feet (23.4 m) per minute).
- HST Hercules Size Test
- a 35 minute roll of paper was collected and converted on a commercial forms press to two boxes of standard 8 1/2" x 11" (21.6 x 28 cm) forms. Samples were also collected before and after each 35 minute roll for natural aged size testing basis weight (46 lb/3000 ft 2 , 20.8 kg/279 m 2 ), and smoothness testing.
- the converted paper was allowed to equilibrate in the printer room for at least one day prior to evaluation. Each box of paper allowed a 10-14 minute (220 feet (66.7 m) per minute) evaluation on the IBM 3800. All samples were tested in duplicate. A standard acid fine paper was run for at least two minutes between each evaluation to reestablish initial machine conditions.
- the Hercules Size Test is a standard test in the industry for measuring the degree of sizing. This method employs an aqueous dye solution as the penetrant to permit optical detection of the liquid front as it moves through the sheet. The apparatus determines the time required for the reflectance of the sheet surface not in contact with the penetrant to drop to a predetermined percentage of its original reflectance. All HST testing data reported measure the seconds to 80% reflection with 1% formic acid ink mixed with naphthol green B dye unless otherwise noted. The use of formic acid ink is a more severe test than neutral ink and tends to give faster test times. High HST values are better than low values. The amount of sizing desired depends upon the kind of paper being made and the system used to make it.
