Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for producing high filler content and high dry strength papers.
  • fillers are added to the fiber suspension, which is particularly advantageous when the filler is cheaper than the pulp.
  • the addition or increased addition of filler can lead to a reduction of the fiber content and thus to a reduction in the production costs of the paper.
  • Filler-containing papers or papers with a particularly high filler content are easier to dry than non-filler papers or papers with a lower filler content.
  • the paper machine can be operated faster and with lower steam consumption, which both increases productivity and lowers costs.
  • the filler slurry is added to the fiber suspension prior to passing it to the former of the paper machine.
  • a retention aid or retention aid system is typically added to the filler / pulp suspension to retain as much filler as possible in the paper sheet.
  • the addition of the filler to the paper gives the papermaker the opportunity to achieve numerous improvements in sheet properties. These include properties such as opacity, whiteness, feel and printability.
  • the filler addition to the fiber suspension also entails disadvantages which can only be partially compensated by the addition of further paper auxiliaries. For a given basis weight, there are limits to the amount of filler that can be used.
  • the strength properties of the paper are usually the most important parameters that limit the amount of filler in the paper. Other factors, such as filler retention, dewatering of the pulp suspension, and possibly increased need for chemicals in retention and sizing may also play a role here.
  • the loss of strength properties of papers can in some cases be compensated in whole or in part by the use of dry and wet strength agents.
  • a common procedure is the addition of cationic starch as dry strength in the pulp.
  • synthetic dry and wet strength agents are used, for example, based on cationic or anionic polyacrylamides.
  • the amount of addition and the strengthening effect are limited in most cases.
  • the compensating effect in relation to the loss of strength by increasing the filler and thus also the only realizable Filler increase limited.
  • not all strength properties are increased to the same extent and in some cases insufficiently by the use of dry strength agents.
  • An important example of this is the on-going work, which is only slightly influenced by the use of starch or synthetic dry strength agents in comparison to other strength parameters.
  • the increase in the filler content in paper on the other hand, usually has a very strong negative impact on continuing work.
  • the increase in the filler content leads to a decrease in the paper density and the thickness of the paper sheet at the same basis weight.
  • the latter leads to a significant decrease in paper stiffness.
  • This decrease in paper stiffness can not be compensated in many cases by the use of dry strength agents alone.
  • additional measures such as the reduction of mechanical pressure in the press section in the calenders, in calenders or in the dryer section of the paper machine are necessary. The latter compensates the thickness loss by increasing the filler in whole or in part.
  • amphoteric water-soluble polymers are added to aqueous suspensions of inorganic particles amphoteric water-soluble polymers, wherein at least a portion of the polymers is adsorbed on the filler surface.
  • the amphoteric polymers are preferably prepared by hydrolyzing copolymers of N-vinylformamide, acrylonitrile and acrylic acid in the presence of acids. They contain from 20 to 90 mol% amidine units of the structure in which R 1 and R 2 are each H or a methyl group and X- is an anion.
  • the filler slurries treated with such polymers are added to the stock in the preparation of filler-containing papers. The filler treatment improves the drainage of the pulp and also gives an improvement various strength properties of the dried paper and an improvement in the filler retention.
  • US 6033524 A discloses a process for producing paper in the presence of an aqueous slurry of finely divided filler-containing components wherein the finely divided fillers are coated with a copolymer and wherein, in addition to the aqueous slurry of finely divided filler-containing components, a cationic polymer is added to the fiber slurry prior to sheet formation ,
  • the object was achieved by a process for the production of paper, paperboard and cardboard in the presence of an aqueous slurry of components containing finely divided fillers, wherein the finely divided fillers are at least partially coated with water-soluble amphoteric copolymers, wherein in addition to the aqueous slurry of finely divided fillers Components at least one cationic and / or amphoteric polymer containing as structural element no esters of unsaturated carboxylic acids with quaternized amino alcohols, the fiber suspension added before sheet formation.
  • components comprising finely divided fillers are both finely divided fillers alone, i. in pure form or as a so-called fresh filler, as well as finely divided fillers containing raw materials such as the so-called Committee of coated paper, as well as mixtures in any composition thereof understood.
  • the dosage of the cationic and / or amphoteric polymers may be at various points in the papermaking process. Conceivable is a dosage in the thick matter range, but also a dosage in the thin material of the fiber suspension. A split addition at different points in the manufacturing process is also possible.
  • the at least one cationic and / or amphoteric polymer is added to the fiber suspension immediately after the addition of the aqueous slurry of components containing finely divided fillers. Immediately means that between the dosages of the components no further process step, i. no dosage of other paper auxiliaries or, for example, the action of shear forces on the suspension is.
