Definitions

  • This invention relates to processes for softening vegetable fibrous material, such as wood, cereal straws, and grasses, whereby a ren'iarkably fine product may be obtained by the use of relatively inexpensive chemicals.
  • the process includes the use of sodium carbonate and sulphur and is conducted under such conditions that these materials combine and effect desired changes in the fibrous ma terial such-as heretofore have been obtainable only by the use of more expensiv chemicals.
  • the resultant paper or paper board produced from materials obtained by this process is more pliable and stronger than that ordinarily obtainable from straw, for example, by other methods such as give yields above fifty or sixty per cent.
  • the fibers give the color reactions characteristic of well cooked pulp obtainable by the sulphate process and which is c011- sidercd a much finer product than the usual straw pulps such as are obtained in cooking straw with lime.
  • the cheapness of the cooking reagents proposed as result of this present invention and the quality of the product makes possible the more complete utilization of straw.
  • the cooking vessels, digestors are charged with straw or other vegetable fibrous material in the usual I manner together with about seven pounds sodium carbonate, one pound of sulphur, and twenty-five gallons of water for each one hundred pounds dry weight of straw.
  • cooking treatment of six hours is suflicient if at least five and one-half hours are at a temperature of 145 C.
  • the action is conducted in closed vessels, and of course at itl pressures greater than atmospheric pressure.
  • the chemicals may be combined in rotary digestors in the presence of straw and water or by suitable mechanical means before being introduced into the digestors.
  • Sulphur has also previously been used in combination with caustic soda and also in combination with lime.
  • the result of the first would be the formation of caustic soda and sodium sulphide, simulating a modification of the soda process and not relying on the use of sodium carbonate as the softening agent, as in the present invention.
  • vVhere lime has been used with sulphur, theproducts formed are different from those of the present process, and in one use, it has been necessary to supplement such materials with sodium carbonate used, not as a cooking agent, but as an eliminator for undesirable products formed in the digestion when lime and sulphur are present.
  • I claim 1 In a process of softening ve etable fibrous material, the steps consisting o treatwith a solution of sodium carbonate and sulphur, and under temperature conditions of at least 120 C.
