る。 Generally, talc [Mg 3 (Si 4 O 10 ) (OH) 2 ] is originally a hydrophobic powder, so it is extremely rare to use it suspended in water in many industrial fields.
However, in the paper manufacturing field, (i) to increase the opacity of paper and make it dense and flexible, (ii) to make the surface of paper smooth and glossy, and to make it look beautiful, and (iii) for printing. To improve suitability, talc is used as a filler and as a component of the coating material.

性塗料を紙の表面に塗布している。 Usually, paper is manufactured through a pulp beating process, a papermaking process, a drying process, and a coating process. That is, after going through a beating process to loosen the fibers of the pulp, a filler containing talc is added along with a sizing agent and a fixing agent, each ingredient is dispersed in an aqueous solution, then paper-formed, and then dried. paper is made.
Furthermore, in a coating process to increase the whiteness of the paper and give it opacity, a thriller-like water-based paint containing talc as one of its components is applied to the surface of the paper.

て困難であつた。 It has been confirmed that the finer the particles of talc used as a filler and paint, the more effective it is, particularly in terms of whiteness, opacity, and printability. On the other hand, when the particle size of talc becomes fine and the average particle size is less than 10μ, it becomes extremely difficult to mix it into an aqueous solution.It floats on the water surface and does not disperse in the water even when stirred.For this reason, fine talc is used as is in paper manufacturing sites. This was extremely difficult.

微細タルクを十分に活用できない状態にあつた。 For this reason, when using talc, especially fine talc, as a filler for pulp, conventional methods include mixing talc with alcohol to form a paste and adding it to water, or mixing a surfactant with 2% talc. was taken. However, in the former case, if the alcohol is a lower alcohol, the talc and the lower alcohol can be easily mixed, but it requires a large amount of alcohol, which is more than 50% of the talc by weight, which is not economical. However, there was a risk of ignition, and furthermore, it was not possible to treat the talc in advance due to the volatility of alcohol. Also, if higher alcohol is used,
Although there was no need to worry about ignition or volatilization, it had the disadvantage of poor compatibility with water. In the latter case, that is, when a surfactant is used, the talc becomes compatible with water, but foaming becomes severe during stirring, and this foaming adversely affects paper-making.
Therefore, in the past, whiteness, whiteness,
Fine talc, which exhibits excellent effects in terms of opacity and printability, could not be fully utilized.

見出し本発明を完成するに至つた。 The present invention was made in view of the current situation as described above, and has been made through intensive research into the use of fine talc, which exhibits excellent effects in terms of whiteness, opacity, printability, etc. in paper manufacturing. As a result, they discovered that fine talc can be made hydrophilic by coating it with a thin film of polyalkylene glycol, leading to the completion of the present invention.

提供することにある。 Therefore, the object of the present invention is to coat the surface of talc with polyalkylene glycol, thereby making it possible to mix and disperse talc into water very easily, thereby making it possible to use fine talc as a filler for paper and as a component of coating materials. The object of the present invention is to provide a hydrophilic fine talc that exhibits excellent effects in terms of whiteness, opacity, and printability.

い。 The hydrophilic fine talc of the present invention is produced by pulverizing talc into a size of about 10 μm using a pulverizer into a mixer (e.g., ribbon mixer, Nauta mixer, V-type mixer, Henschel mixer, etc.), and adding polyalkylene glycol into the mixer. Hydrophilic fine talc can be obtained by coating by spraying, or by simply spraying polyalkylene glycol directly into the pulverized talc using a jet oomizer and coating it. The polyalkylene glycol referred to herein refers to high molecular weight glycols including at least di- and tri-glycols, and the alkylene is preferably ethylene or propylene.

しかならない。 As described above, the present invention has a simple configuration, and allows fine talc, which is hydrophobic in nature and is floating, to be mixed and dispersed in water, thereby making it possible to use fine talc as a filler for paper or as a component of coating paint. paper whiteness,
Demonstrates excellent printability and opacity. Since polyalkylene glycol is a polymer and does not volatilize even when coated on the surface of talc and is extremely soluble in water, the coated fine talc immediately disperses in water when mixed with water. Further, fine talc generates dust when handled, but since it is coated with glycol as in the present invention, it has the characteristic that very little dust is generated. Furthermore, the cost of coated talc is only about 10% higher than that of fine talc without coating.
