"Industrial Application Field" The present invention relates to a method for producing coated paper, and particularly to a method for producing coated paper that is less likely to fade due to light or heat and has excellent whiteness. ``Conventional technology'' Conventional methods for whitening coated paper include washing the pulp, reducing the amount of high-yield pulp used, adding white filler internally, and adding blue tint using blue dye, all from the base paper surface. Countermeasures have been taken starting with the coating process, in which a coating composition containing white pigments, fluorescent brighteners, dyes, etc. is coated on the surface of the base paper using a size press, coater, etc. Among these whitening measures, the method of using fluorescent whitening agents is commonly used in the paper manufacturing industry as a method to improve the whiteness of printing paper, white paperboard, etc. and increase its commercial value. This is one of the improvement measures. However, water-soluble fluorescent brighteners have a strong affinity for pulp, so when a coating composition powder containing this agent is coated on a base paper, it penetrates into the base paper along with water at the same time as it is coated. Most of it is adsorbed and fixed to the base paper. Therefore, the present situation is that satisfactory results are not necessarily obtained in terms of the whitening effect of the coating layer itself. A method of increasing the whitening effect by using a specific water-soluble polycarboxylate resin and a stilbene-type fluorescent dye in combination [Special Publication No. 48-29802], and a method of using hydroxyethylcellulose with a specific degree of substitution. A method of increasing the whitening effect by using a water-soluble fluorescent brightener together has been proposed [Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-13678], but as mentioned above, certain polyhydric carboxylate resins and hydroxyl Since ethyl cellulose is required, new defects are also created along with the improvement of the whitening effect.
The current situation is that satisfactory results have not been obtained. ``Problems to be Solved by the Invention'' The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method that can extremely efficiently improve the coating layer whitening effect of a water-soluble fluorescent thickener without requiring special materials. It is. "Means for Solving the Problems" The present invention consists of a pigment and an adhesive as main components, 0.05 to 2.5 parts by weight of polyvinyl alcohol or a derivative thereof, and a water-soluble fluorescent whitening agent based on 100 parts by weight of the pigment. A coating composition containing 0.05 to 2 parts by weight of the agent is coated on a base paper, and the average evaporation rate is 10 to 60 Kg/Hr/m 2
This is a method for producing coated paper, which is characterized by drying the coated paper. "Effect" The combined use of polyvinyl alcohol or its derivatives (hereinafter simply referred to as PVA) and a water-soluble fluorescent brightener is known, for example, from the aforementioned Japanese Patent Publication No. 48-29802 and Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-13678. ing. but,
According to these known documents, it is said that even if PVA and a water-soluble fluorescent brightener are used together, no excellent whitening effect can be obtained. However, according to the study results of the present inventors,
By adjusting the amount of PVA used and the drying conditions of the coating composition, the whitening effect of the coating layer can be expressed extremely efficiently, resulting in a coated paper with excellent whiteness and less fading due to light or heat. It became clear that this could be achieved. That is, the present inventors have diligently investigated the whitening effect of coated paper obtained by adding a water-soluble fluorescent brightener and various auxiliaries to a coating composition and drying it under various drying conditions. As a result of research, cellulose derivatives such as sodium alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxymethyl cellulose, methyl cellulose, PVA, polyacrylate resin, styrene maleic acid copolymer salt resin, melamine formaldehyde resin, starch and its derivatives, urea formaldehyde It has become clear that an extremely significant whitening effect can be obtained only when a specific amount of PVA among various auxiliaries is used in the resin and dried under specific drying conditions. It has been reached. Although the cause of this effect is not clear, the inventors' considerations suggest that PVA
shows an excellent fixing effect for water-soluble fluorescent brighteners, which not only prevents the brightener from being adsorbed to the pulp of the base paper, but also prevents the brightener from being adsorbed to the pulp of the base paper. , its usage is set to certain conditions,
In addition, the drying conditions are set to specific conditions, so
The whitening agent migrates to the surface of the coating layer while being fixed, and as a result, the water-soluble fluorescent brightener is efficiently oriented on the surface of the coating layer, resulting in an excellent whitening effect of the coating layer. It is presumed that this is the case. The PVA used in the present invention is not only polyvinyl alcohol obtained by hydrolysis from vinyl acetate polymer, but also polyvinyl alcohol obtained through modification treatments such as esterification, etherification, urethanization, acetalization, crosslinking, and copolymerization. It also includes derivatives such as polyvinyl alcohol. The degree of polymerization of PVA is determined under specific drying conditions.
The polymerization degree is preferably in the range of about 100 to 3,000, particularly in the range of about 200 to 2,000, so that appropriate migration occurs in the coating layer and contributes to the whitening effect.
PVA is preferably used. In addition, the degree of saponification of PVA affects the fixation of the water-soluble fluorescent whitening agent in the coating layer, and the higher the degree of saponification of PVA, the greater the whitening effect, so 20 mol% or more, more preferably 60 mol%
PVA having a saponification degree of above is preferably used. In the present invention, the proportion of PVA used is extremely important, and the amount used is based on 100 parts by weight of the pigment.
If the amount is less than 0.05 part by weight, the desired whitening effect of the present invention cannot be expected. However, when compounded at a high concentration of 3 to 5 parts by weight or more, which is usually used as an adhesive, the coating composition may be damaged due to the shock phenomenon caused by the strong bond between PVA and pigment. Since the viscosity increases and proper migration of PVA in the coated layer during the drying process is inhibited, the desired effect of the present invention is also impaired. Therefore, the usage rate of PVA is
The amount should be adjusted within the range of 0.05 to 2.5 parts by weight, more preferably 0.05 to 1.0 parts by weight, based on 100 parts by weight of the pigment. As mentioned above, the water-soluble fluorescent brighteners to be incorporated into the coating composition of the present invention containing PVA in a specific proportion include stilbene-based brighteners such as diaminostilbene disulfonic acid derivatives commonly used for paper manufacturing. Whitening agents are preferably used, but any water-soluble agent can be used, and of course it is also possible to use two or more types in combination. The proportion of the water-soluble optical brightener used is not particularly limited, but it is generally adjusted within the range of 0.05 to 2 parts by weight, preferably 0.08 to 1 part by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the pigment. desirable. The pigments used in the coating composition are not particularly limited, and include kaolin, hydrated hallosite, clay, heavy carbon calcium, light calcium carbonate, barium sulfate, aluminum hydroxide, satin white, titanium dioxide,
Common pigments for coated paper, such as talc, calcium sulfite, zinc sulfate, and plastic pigments, are appropriately blended depending on the properties of each pigment. Adhesives are also not particularly limited, including casein, soybean protein, yeast protein, starch, oxidized starch, esterified starch, etherified starch, modified starch such as cationic starch, natural adhesives such as cellulose derivatives, etc.
Conjugated diene copolymer latex such as styrene/butadiene copolymer, methyl methacrylate/butadiene copolymer, acrylic polymer latex such as acrylic and/or methacrylic acid ester polymer or copolymer, ethylene/acetic acid Alkali-insensitive synthetic adhesives such as vinyl acetate polymer latex such as vinyl copolymer, and styrene,
Alkali-based emulsions such as alkali-sensitive synthetic resin emulsions whose main components are butadiene and ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acids, and aqueous emulsions made by blending alkali-insensitive styrene-butadiene copolymer latex with alkali-sensitive copolymer latex. One or more types of common adhesives for coated paper, such as sensitive synthetic adhesives, are appropriately selected and used depending on the purpose of the coated paper. The blending ratio of the adhesive is generally adjusted within the range of 3 to 25 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the pigment, but in order to provide excellent smoothness, opacity, white paper gloss, and ink gloss, In order to increase the amount and obtain coated paper with improved printability, it is necessary to
It is desirable to adjust the amount within a range of about 20 parts by weight. In addition, various auxiliary agents, such as dispersants, flow modifiers, antifoaming agents, dyes, lubricants, waterproofing agents, and water retention agents, which are generally added to coated paper compositions, may of course be added as necessary. It is possible. The coating composition thus prepared is coated on one or both sides of the base paper using an on-machine or off-machine coater. Multilayer coating is desirable. In that case, the formulations of the coating compositions for both sides and the coating compositions forming each layer in multilayer coating can be changed as appropriate according to conventional methods. Furthermore, there are no particular limitations on the coating method, including air knife coaters, roll coaters, paddle and inverter type blade coaters with beveled and bent blades,
Furthermore, various conventional coating apparatuses such as various blade coaters such as bill blade, twin blade, short dwell blade, rod blade, and triplex blade coaters can be used as appropriate. Among these various coating devices, blade coaters in particular have traditionally been preferably used to produce high-quality coated paper because they can provide smoother coated surfaces. In the method of the present invention, the specific coating composition thus coated on the base paper is coated with an average evaporation rate of 10 to 60 kg/kg.
It is necessary to dry under specific drying conditions of Hr/ m2 . Generally speaking, there are cylinder dryers, tunnel dryers, floater dryers, air cap dryers, infrared dryers, etc. as drying devices after coating the coating liquid, and their evaporation capacity varies greatly depending on the scale and type of the device. are different. In the present invention, PVA in the coating composition is designed to efficiently migrate to the surface of the coating layer and contribute to the whitening effect on the surface of the coating layer by at least 10 kg/PVA.
It is necessary to dry with an average evaporation rate of Hr/ m2 or higher.
Under drying conditions below 10 Kg/Hr/m 2 , the desired whitening effect of the present invention cannot be expected. However, excessive drying with an average evaporation rate exceeding 60 Kg/Hr/ m2 results in rapid evaporation of water in the coating composition, resulting in rapid and uneven migration of PVA. As a result, the printability of the resulting coated paper deteriorates and uneven printing occurs. Also,
There is also a risk that the surface of the coated layer may become rough or a shaky phenomenon may occur. For this reason, the quality of the coated paper is extremely low. Therefore, in the method of the present invention, it is necessary to dry the coating composition by adjusting the capacity of the drying device so that the average evaporation rate falls within a specific range of 10 to 60 Kg/Hr/ m2 . be. After coating and drying, the coated paper is processed using finishing equipment such as a machine calender, super calender, or gloss calender according to conventional methods to produce a coated paper with excellent white gloss, smoothness, and printability. I can finish it. "Effect" The coated paper of the present invention thus obtained has an extremely efficiently improved whitening effect on the surface of the coating layer,
Moreover, the color difference b expressed by Hunter's chromaticity coordinates is
Since the value tends toward bluishness, fading and yellowing due to light and heat are prevented, and the appearance of blank paper and printed matter shows little change after long-term storage, which is an extremely excellent property. Furthermore, since the whitening effect is remarkable, it is possible to reduce the amount of fluorescent brightener used depending on the purpose of the coated paper, and it is also economically advantageous.

Note that parts and % in the examples indicate parts by weight and % by weight, respectively, unless otherwise specified.
