Description

PATENT OFFIoE.
JOUANEM DUPONT, OF NIMES, (GARD,) FRANCE.
IMPROVEMENT lN TREATING PLANTS T0 PRODUCE PAPER-PULP AND FIBER.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 130,114, dated August 6, 1872.
I, J OUANEM DUPONT, of Niines, (Gard,) in the Republic of France, at present residing at Liverpool, England, have discovered and invented the Application and Treatment of certain Plants not hitherto used for the Production of Filaments and Fibers, of which the following is a specification:
My invention consists in means for utilizing the leaves, stems, and flowers of various plants, especially the leaves of the family of plants known as Typha, and more particularly Typha latifol'ia, (French, massette, English, bulrush,) so as to obtain therefrom filaments and fibers serviceable for many purposes in the arts. The filaments are obtained, by the treatment which I have perfected, of great length and strength, and are suitable for the following among other purposes: rope and cord making, and spinning and weaving into textile fabrics before or after bleaching, while the shorter.
fibers are well adapted for making paper and card-board.
In nearly every countrythere are large tracts of marshy uncultivated land, which would answer well for the growth of Typha. latijblia, and plants of the family of Typha, and it has been my endeavor, while introducing a new industry, to make these lands productive.
In carrying my invention into practice I proceed under one modification as follows: After the plants have been cut and dried, and it is preferred that they should be out immediatelyupon attaining their full growth, they are steeped or macerated in water with lime and sulphur for six days, more or less, the proportions by weight being five hundred parts water, ninety-five parts qnickliine,
and five parts sulphur. They, the said plants, are next washed and beaten so as to free them from resinous, gummy, and objectionable matter. The beating maybe effected by rollers, by hand,-or other means If it is desired to obtain white silky fibers, they are boiled in an alkaline solution, bleached, and finally washed in clean water.
Under another modification I treat the plants immediately after being cut by steeping or macerating them for from one to six days in water to which quicklime and sulphur have been added in about the proportions mentioned above. They are next boiled in the same liquor or in similar clean liquor, afterward passed between pressing-rollers or beaten by hand, and finally washed and dried. It will be obvious that the fibers may be bleached.
The short fibers, unfit for spinning or like textile purpose, are made into paper or cardboard by any suitable or known. process. The
plants may as a whole be reduced to pulp and used in thefabrication of paper.
Having now described the nature of my said invention and particularized the same in such manner that others will be enabled to reap the advantages of my improvements at the proper time, I claim The within-described process for reducing to fiber and utilizing family and analogous material by means of lime and sulphur, substantially as herein set forth.
JENI. DUPONT.
