Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method in accordance with the preamble of claim 1 and a lignocellulosic-material based product according to the preamble of Claim 7.
  • EP-A-0484101 discloses a paper towel having two outer layers of chemical fiber blend of chemical softwood and hardwood fiber and a center layer of an anfractuous high bulk softwood fiber blend of anfractuous fiber and long mechanical pulp fiber.
  • Multi-ply products such as multi-ply paper, board or cardboard comprise more than two plies.
  • multi-ply board comprises three different plies so that the top-liner plies may have identical composition.
  • the center web ply may typically be formed by a web comprising one or more plies of identical composition which are couched together.
  • a multi-ply board acts as a hollow-core beam structure in which the maximum stiffness is attained by a composition having its center ply from a material of maximally high bulk and the outer plies of a liner material of maximally high Young's modulus. Optimally this concept can be utilized by forming the liner and center plies from entirely different types of pulps.
  • a board having the maximum possible bulk is achieved by using mechanical or chemimechanical pulp in the center ply (conventional folding boxboard).
  • foodstuff packaging and graphic art principally uses board grades made from groundwood-free pulp and having their center ply also made from chemical pulp. Resultingly, the manufacture of foodstuff packaging and graphic art boards have involved product lines requiring a high degree of conversion and special skills.
  • the manufacture of mechanical pulps uses softwood almost exclusively. In the pulping process, particularly in the grinding step, long softwood fibers are cut and shortened so that the formation of the center ply made thereof takes place in a satisfactory manner. By contrast, long softwood fibers undergoing the chemical pulping process are not subjected to such severe cutting, whereby the formation properties of the produced pulp are extremely unfavourable.
  • the center ply of board made from chemical pulp is formed from hardwood pulp although its bulk (particularly that of deciduous wood pulp) is generally inferior and thus adverse to the goal of achieving an advantageous structure for the beam structure of the board center ply.
  • Softwood pulp particularly pinewood pulp, contains fibers which give advantageous properties to the outer and center plies of a three-ply board.
  • softwood pulp at the fiber level is not a homogeneous raw material, but rather, comprises two entirely different fiber types: thick-walled summerwood fibers and thin-walled springwood fibers.
  • summerwood fibers of softwood pulp are an ideal raw material for the center ply of a board made from chemical pulp.
  • the bulk of a sheet made therefrom is approx. 40 % better than that of a sheet made from birch pulp.
  • springwood fibers of softwood pulp are an extremely advantageous raw material for the liner ply of a board, particularly if the board will be coated.
  • Such band-shaped fibers form a well closed surface, do not increase the roughness of the surface texture in the same manner as conventional softwood pulp (relative to birch pulp), and additionally, improve the Young's modulus of the liner ply thus contributing to the achievement of maximum stiffness.
  • the different properties required for the liner and center plies of a multi-ply board can be achieved by utilizing the characteristics of the extremely different fiber types contained in the annual growth of softwood.
  • currently known industrial-scale processes fail to achieve completely pure fractions, it is possible to prove on the basis of properties offered by fractions purified through a fractionation process that the stiffness of, e.g., a three-ply board made from chemical pulp can be improved by approx. 30 % relative to conventional board grades.
  • the fibers of softwood pulp can be cut so effectively through refining that a multi-ply product according to the invention can be made using very high proportions of softwood pulp without impairing the properties of the board. It is an object of the invention to improve the fractionation techniques suited for essentially improving the properties of softwood pulp as a raw material of a multi-ply product such as three-ply board made from chemical pulp.
  • the production of a multi-ply product according to the invention aims at maximally effective fractionation summerwood and springwood fibers.
  • fractionated pulp is used which is enriched maximally pure in springwood fibers.
  • the invention is characterized by having the at least one center ply of the multi-ply product enriched with thick-walled summerwood fibers of softwood, further advantageously having the liner plies of the multi-ply product enriched with thinwalled and/or band-shaped springwood fibers of softwood.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the method and product structure according to the invention is characterized by having the liner plies of a multi-ply product, most preferably a multi-ply board, formed from softwood pulp or a mixture of softwood and hardwood pulp, whereby the softwood pulp fraction is enriched with thin-walled springwood fibers, and further having the at least one center ply of a multi-ply board formed from a reject fraction of softwood pulp or a mixture of a reject fraction of softwood pulp and hardwood pulp, said reject fraction resulting from the separation of the springwood fibers and thus being enriched with thick-walled summerwood fibers.
