Definitions
- Starch acetate composites Method for the production thereof, and use in paper and board production
- the present invention relates to novel starch acetate composites useful for instance in paper and board production, and to a method for producing such composites.
- the invention is also directed to the use of said composites as fillers for paper and board and as coating pigments.
- the invention relates to methods for producing, and for coating paper and board.
- a coating consists of pigments, e.g. kaolin, ground calcium carbonate (GCC) and talc, and further, a binder such as a latex and starch, and it may also contain additives such as dispersing agents, agents for pH adjustment, lubricants, and anti- microbial agents.
- Pigments normally comprise from 80 to 95 % by weight of the coating, so the pigments have a particularly significant influence on the optical properties of the coating, e.g. opacity, brightness, and gloss. Brightness is improved by the low light absorption capacity and high light scattering coefficient of the pigment, opacity being also improved by the latter.
- Factors influencing the gloss include particle size of the pigment, and post-coating treatment of paper and board, such as calendering.
- fillers are added to the pulp.
- the amount of the filler to be added depends on the product being produced, the proportion thereof being for instance between 4 and 10 % for LWC papers and between 15 and 30 % for chemical pulp papers, relative to the base paper weight.
- Fillers include e.g. kaolin, calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide.
- the optical properties and printa- bility of paper and board are influenced also by the filler. A considerable proportion of the filler may comprise reject material from paper production.
- the optical properties of paper and board may be improved by increasing the proportion of pigments in the coating, and the amount of fillers in base paper. This, however, deteriorates the strength characteristics of paper and coating.
- starch is typically added to the pulp as an aqueous solution primarily for improving the strength properties of the product.
- the thus improved strength is, among other things, based on its gelatinization in the drying section.
- Use of cooked starch is limited for instance by limited adsorption, rannability problems, and cost.
- Strength properties of paper may also be improved by refining of pulp, and addition of fines, but this is, however, accompanied by opacity reduction.
- FI2004074J discloses a method for producing a pigment or filler based on starch, and further, a starch based pigment or filler product.
- the products presented are light and biodegradable, and have a particle size or structure making them suitable as coating pigments and fillers.
- One product disclosed in said document is a spherical starch derivative, such as starch acetate having a mean particle size ranging from 90 to 1000 nanometers.
- WO 99/16972 discloses the use of alkali metal silicates, particularly sodium silicate in combination with starch to improve the strength of paper and board. Both the silicate and the starch are added in a finely dispersed form to the fibre suspension at the wet end prior to web formation.
- the starch is uncooked and the alkali silicate is selected from silicates insoluble in water at the temperatures of the wet end, the silicates being soluble only at temperatures encountered in the drying section.
- US 6,623,555 describes a method for producing a composite pigment from pre- cipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) and silicate.
- Said composite pigment is produced by adding a soluble silicate compound to an aqueous medium containing precipitated calcium carbonate obtained by carbonation of lime milk.
- An insoluble silicon compound is precipitated on the calcium carbonate thus formed by carbon- ating the reaction mixture, that is, by bubbling CO 2 through the reaction mixture.
- Optical properties and bonding strength are some of the most important properties of printing papers.
- Scott Bond value Optical properties and bonding strength
- Incineration of waste papers containing inorganic mineral pigments for energy production results in high amounts of ash, the disposal of which causes problems.
- aims set for the proportion of bioenergy in the total energy production should be reached until 2010. For these aims, it is also desir- able to use in papers and boards as much renewable organic materials as possible.
- Inorganic mineral pigments also increase the weight of paper and board. There is an ever growing need for increasingly lighter papers for magazines, catalogues and the like, furnished, however, with high quality printing properties.
- An object of the invention is to provide novel starch acetate composites.
- An object of the invention is also to provide a method for producing starch acetate composites.
- an object of the invention is the use of starch acetate composites as fillers of paper and board, and as coating pigments in the production thereof.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a method for producing paper and board.
- Still another object of the invention is to provide a method for coating paper and board.
- the invention relates to starch acetate composites.
- the composite of the invention comprises starch acetate particles having a light scattering material on the surface thereof.
- the term light scattering material refers for instance to silica, silicate, precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC), gypsum, calcium oxalate, titanium dioxide, aluminium hydroxide, barium sulphate, or zinc oxide, or a modification or a combination thereof, or any other light scattering material.
- the starch acetate is coated with the light scattering material defined above.
- the coating with the light scattering material may be performed by precipitation, adsorption, gas phase coating technique, i.e. CVD (chemical vapour deposition), or spin coating technique, or in a similar manner.
- the starch acetate composite obtained may be used as a filler of paper and board for improving the combination of optical and strength properties of the product.
- the composite of the invention may be used as a coating pigment for paper and board.
