Definitions
- the present invention relates to a simplified method for increasing the whiteness of paper by the application of optical brighteners, also known as fluorescent whitening agents.
- the subject of the present invention is hence a method for the optical brightening of paper, which comprises the use of a formulation essentially consisting of a swellable layered silicate and an optical brightener.
- the swellable layered silicates are e.g. natural or synthetic clay minerals or sodium silicates.
- a suitable natural clay mineral is e.g montmorillonite, beidelite, saponite, or hectorite; preferred synthetic species are the zeolites (type A, X or ⁇ , etc.) and acid- or alkaline-modified bentonites.
- inventively used formulations may be in the form of a dry mixture or, alternatively, in the form of an aqueous dispersion.
- the swellable layered silicates which are e.g. natural or synthetic clay minerals or synthetic sodium silicates, such as high opacity, high whiteness, ion-exchange properties and improved retention properties can simply be combined with the properties of the optical brighteners without loosing the desired fluorescence effect of the latter.
- the aqueous formulation contains 0.1 to 15% by weight, preferably 1 to 10% by weight of optical brightener, based on the weight of the swellable layered silicate.
- the formulation is in the form of an aqueous dispersion, this contains about 2 to 60% by weight of the swellable layered silicate.
- the preferred range of the bentonites is about 2 to 25%., and mostly preferred 2 to 20%, by weight; for the synthetic zeolites the suitable range is about 2 to 50% by weight.
- Dispersing agents such as polycondensates of naphthalene sulfonic acid and formaldehyde or lignin sulfonates can be used as auxiliaries.
- the formulation is in the form of a dry mixture, this may contains 0,1 to 90% by weight preferably 1 to 50% by weight of the optical brightener, based on the weight of the swellable layered silicate.
- the optical brightener used in the method of the present invention is preferably a derivative of 4,4'-bis-(triazinylamino)-stilbene-2,2'-disulphonic acid, a derivative of 4,4'-distyryl-biphenyl, or a derivative of dibenzofuranylbiphenyl.
- the 4,4'-bis-(triazinylamino)-stilbene-2,2'- disulphonic acid optical brightener is of the formula: in which R 1 and R 2 , independently, are phenylamino, mono- or disulphonated phenylamino, morpholino, -N(CH 2 CH 2 OH) 2 , -N(CH 3 )(CH 2 CH 2 OH), -NH 2 , -N(C 1 -C 4 alkyl) 2 , -OCH 3, -Cl, NHCH 2 CH 2 SO 3 H, CH 2 CH 2 OH or ethanolaminopropionic acid amide; and M is H, Na, Li, K, Ca, Mg, ammonium, or ammonium that is mono-, di-, tri- or tetrasubstituted by C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 hydroxyalkyl or a mixture thereof.
- the 4,4'distyryl-biphenyl optical brightener is of the formula: in which R 3 and R 4 , independently, are H, SO 3 M, SO 2 N(C 1 -C 4 alkyl) 2 , O(C 1 -C 4 alkyl), CN, Cl, COO(C 1 -C 4 alkyl), CON(C 1 -C 4 alkyl) 2 or (CH 2 ) 3 N + (CH 3 ) 2 An - , in which M is H, Na, Li, K, Ca, Mg, ammonium, or ammonium that is mono-, di-, tri- or tetrasubstituted by C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 hydroxyalkyl or a mixture thereof and An is an anion, e.g. of a mineral acid (hydrochloric or sulfuric acid) or lower (C 1-4 )-carboxylic acid.
- R 3 and R 4 independently, are H, SO 3 M, SO 2 N
- Preferred compounds of formula (3) are those of the formula wherein M, R and R 1 have the indicated meanings, R and R 1 being preferably methyl.
- optical brightener is of the formula: R x CH 2 CH 2 OH R x CH 3 or or mixtures of at least two of the compounds (5) to (10).
- a process which comprises adding to an aqueous slurry comprising a lignin-containing pulp, during pulp manufacture, prior to the drying step or paper making step if the pulp is not isolated, an effective amount of an optical brightener.
- the optical brightener can be added to the aqueous slurry comprising the lignin-containing pulp at any processing step, to minimize losses, it is advantageously added in the latter stages of pulp manufacture, prior to the final dewatering and drying steps. Preferably it is added after completion of the last bleaching step.
- a lignin-containing pulp any pulp that still contains about 5% or more of lignin by weight on a dry basis.
- lignin is that portion of the pulp which is insoluble in 72 weight percent sulfuric acid. Suitable test procedures for lignin content are given in TAPPI T 223 and ASTM D 1106.
- the process of this invention is useful to produce significant whitening of pulps containing from about 5% lignin on a dry weight basis up to 100% of the lignin present in an equivalent amount of wood chips.
- the process can be employed, e.g. on relatively low-lignin-containing pulps such as certain bleached kraft pulps up to and including higher lignin content pulps such as thermomechanical pulps, bleached chemi-thermomechanical pulps (CTMP), and even deinked bleached thermomechanical pulps.
- the pulps contain at least 10% of lignin by weight on a dry weight basis; most preferably they contain at least 15%.
- the range of brightness that can be obtained varies from about 50 to 90+ depending on starting pulp brightness and the type of pulp employed.
- chelating agents in processes to bleach pulps from mechanical pulping processes. See V. N. Gupta , Pulp Paper Mag. Can., 71 (18), T391-399 (1970).
- a chelating agent to an aqueous pulp slurry controls the natural yellowing tendency of glucuronic acids, extractives and lignin present in the pulp by removing or minimizing iron and other heavy metals such as copper, zinc and manganese metals that catalyze color-forming side reactions.
- the iron and other heavy metals are converted into the form of their highly soluble chelates and largely removed in the dewatering steps. This decreases the incorporation of the heavy metal ions into the pulp.
- the chelating agent sequesters the salts of iron and other heavy metals which remain and which, in their own right would otherwise relax the excited state of optical brighteners and render them ineffective .
- this metal control step may be done as matter of course in pulping processes where reductive bleaching (e.g., bisulfite, hydrosulfite, or formamidine sulfite bleaching) or oxidative bleaching (e.g., peroxy- or peroxide bleaching) is employed.
- reductive bleaching e.g., bisulfite, hydrosulfite, or formamidine sulfite bleaching
- oxidative bleaching e.g., peroxy- or peroxide bleaching
- the background level of residual iron and other heavy metals and their ions in wood chips is generally about 10-25 ppm, although it is rather dependent on geography and species considerations.
- the amount of iron and other heavy metals and their ions in the water used in pulping mills varies widely. Significant additional amounts of iron and other heavy metals and their ions are introduced during mechanical pulping of wood chips as well as in recycling newsprint.
- the amount of iron and other heavy metals and their ions in the aqueous pulp during manufacture is may be several hundred parts per million by weight, based on the dry weight of the pulp, at some stages of pulp manufacture.
- a chelating agent is advantageously employed if the aqueous slurry comprising the lignin-containing pulp still contains from 25 to 500 ppm by weight, based on the dry weight of the pulp, of salts of iron and other heavy metals at the processing stage where the optical brightener is to be added.
- Heavy metal contents can be determined by standard analytical procedures such as atomic absorption spectroscopy or inductively coupled plasma analysis. Once the type and amounts of the various heavy metals are known, the amount of the chelating agent to employ to reach 100 ppm or less, preferably about 25 ppm or less, can readily be calculated or determined from tables. It is not harmful to use a small excess.
- the chelating agent selected and the degree of whiteness improvement desired from 0 up to about 1% by weight, based on the dry weight of the pulp, of a chelating agent may be advantageously employed
- An additional and substantial benefit of chelate treatment is to open the fiber matrix to make it more accessible to the optical brightener.
- chelating agents are suitable in the present invention, i.e. those that offer thermodynamic or kinetic control of metal ions. However preference is given to chelating agents that offer thermodynamic control, that is, chelating agents that form a stable, isolable, complex with a heavy metal ion. Within this group it is particularly preferred to use aminocarboxylic acid chelates.
- Well known and commercially available members of this class include ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), hydroxyethylethylenediaminetriacetic acid (HEDTA) and nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA).
- thermodynamic and kinetic-controlling chelating agents e.g. citrates, keto acids, gluconates, heptagluconates, phosphates, and phosphonates
- thermodynamic and kinetic-controlling chelating agents also work well in reducing the content of free heavy metal ions in the pulp to acceptable levels.
- kinetic-controlling chelating agents are also commercially available.
- Kinetic controlling chelating agents are those which do not form a stable, isolable, complex with a heavy metal ion.
- the formulations according to the present invention may also be applied to the paper substrate in the form of a paper coating composition or directly in the size press.

- the paper coating compositions used according to the method of the present invention preferably contain 10 to 70% by weight of a white pigment.
- the binder is preferably used in an amount which is sufficient to make the dry content of polymeric compound up to 1 to 30% by weight, preferably 5 to 25% by weight, of the white pigment.
- the amount of optical brightener preparation used according to the invention is calculated so that the optical brightener is preferably present in amounts of 0.01 to 1% by weight, more preferably 0.05 to 1% by weight, and especially 0.05 to 0.6% by weight, based on the white pigment.

Comparably high degrees of whiteness are thus achieved even at low drying temperatures.
- the coatings obtained are distinguished by optimum distribution of the dispersion optical brightener over the entire surface and by an increase in the level of whiteness thereby achieved, by a high fastness to light and to elevated temperature (e.g. stability for 24 hours at 60-100°C.) and excellent bleed-fastness to water.

- These layered silicates possess the property, by means of internal crystalline swelling, of being able to intercalate polar agents between the silicate lamella, resulting, at higher concentrations, in an increase in the distance between the layers.
- the agglomerate particles of the formulation are preferably sheathed with a synthetic zeolite or layer-type sodium silicate (preferably ca 3 to 15% by weight) in order to increase their whiteness.
- a synthetic zeolite or layer-type sodium silicate preferably ca 3 to 15% by weight

- the mixture is agitated for 15 minutes, then 0.03% of a cationic retention aid (Percol 292®) is added, and finally a handsheet is formed by using the Rapid Koethen system.
- the dryed paper has an area weight of 160 g/m 2 .
- the determination of the fluorescence is performed with a Datacolor Spectraflash 500.
- the ISO-brightness is determined with and without a cut-off filter at 420 nm and the difference between these two measurements is the fluorescence.
