Definitions
- the present invention relates to the fiber web according to the preamble of claim 1 .
- a fiber web such as this in general comprises a filler-containing base web possibly coated with a pigment-containing coating layer.
- the invention also relates to the method according to the preamble of claim 17 for the preparation of a fiber web.
- the slush in papermaking is made up of cellulose fibers or lignocellulose fibers, fines and fillers. Many of these components, in particular fillers, are so small in size that they will not adhere mechanically to the wire and they have to be bound to larger fibers or to each other by flocculation.
- retention chemicals which are added to the slush before the forming of the web. Retention chemicals to be mentioned include polymeric products such as polyethylene imine, low molar mass polyacrylamide and polyamine, as well as cationic starch, guar or polyacrylamine combined with colloidal silica, alumina or montmorillonite.
- the amount of retention chemicals is in general at least 0.5% of the dry matter of the fiber, typically approx. 0.6-1% of the dry matter of the fiber.
- the invention is based on the observation that the amount of conventional retention agents can be reduced significantly by replacing at least a portion of the conventional mineral fillers, i.e. pulverous mineral pigments, with a composite pigment containing light-scattering material particles deposited on the surface of the fines.
- a filler product of this type is known from FI patent publication 100729.
- the product comprises strings of pearls made up of calcium carbonate particles deposited on the fines and of fine fibrils.
- this filler of a novel type that calcium carbonate is deposited on fine fibrils prepared from cellulose fibers and/or mechanical pulp fibers by beating.
- the size distribution of the fines fraction mainly corresponds to wire screen fraction P100.
- 10-100% of the filler in the base web is made up of cellulose fibrils or lignocellulose fibrils on which there are deposited light-scattering material particles, and these coated cellulose or lignocellulose fibrils constitute at maximum approx. 70% of the weight of the base web.
- the fiber web according to the invention is characterized in what is stated in the characterizing part of claim 1 .
- the method according to the invention for the preparation of a fiber web is for its part characterized in what is stated in the characterizing part of claim 17 .
- the invention provides considerable advantages.
- paper of uniform quality as well as a high level of formation and high retention can be produced; additionally the circulation waters are substantially cleaner and the retention agent requirement is reduced.
- the invention does not require any flocculation of the filler, contrary to the commercially available retention systems; this has a fundamental effect on formation and the optical effect of the filler.
- the base web does not contain any conventional retention agents, or their amount is over 20% smaller, preferably up to 50% smaller, than that of a web that has the same level of formation and contains conventional particulate fillers.
- the option according to the invention therefore decreases the chemicals costs in the preparation of a fiber web and facilitates the recycling of waters in a paper or board machine.
- the said reduction of 20% can thus be calculated separately from one of the components or from both components in total.
- Example 3 the amount of the polymer component has been reduced by slightly less than 30% by weight while the quantity of nanoparticles has remained unchanged.
- FIG. 1 shows, of the results of Example 2, the web formation as a function of the total retention
- FIG. 2 shows the formation as a function of the wire water consistency.
- the filler used contains a fines fraction comprising fibrils obtained from a chemical pulp.
- chemical pulp is meant in this context a pulp that has been treated with digestion chemicals for the delignification of cellulose fibers.
- the fibrils used in the invention are fibrils obtained by beating from pulps prepared by the sulfate process and by other alkaline processes.
- the invention is also suited for fillers produced from fibrils obtained from chemimechanical and mechanical pulps.
- the average thickness of cellulose or lignocellulose fibrils is smaller than 1 ⁇ m.
- the fibrils are characterized by one or both of the following criteria:
- the source material for the fibrils i.e. the fines based on cellulose or other fibers, is fibrillated by beating in a pulp refiner.
- the desired fraction may, when necessary, be separated using a screen, but the fines need not always be screened.
- Suitable fibril fractions include wire screen fractions P50-P400.
- refiners with grooved blades are used.
- the light-scattering material particles in the filler are inorganic or organic salts which can be formed from their source materials by precipitation in an aqueous medium.
- Such compounds include calcium carbonate, calcium oxalate, calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, and mixtures thereof.
- the material particles are precipitated on the fibrils in order to produce an aggregate resembling a string-of-pearls.
- the amount of the inorganic salt compound is approx. 0.0001-95% by weight, preferably approx. 0.1-90% by weight, most suitably approx. 60-80% by weight, calculated from the amount of filler, and approx. 0.1-60% by weight, preferably approx. 0.5-50% by weight of the paper.
- the filler is prepared by depositing the mineral pigment on the surface of fine fibrils prepared from cellulose fibers and/or mechanical pulp fibers.
- the precipitation of calcium carbonate can be carried out by feeding into an aqueous slush of fibrils an aqueous calcium hydroxide mixture, which possibly contains solid calcium hydroxide, and a compound that contains carbonate ions and is at least partly dissolved in water. It is also possible to introduce carbon dioxide gas into the aqueous phase, which gas in the presence of calcium hydroxide produces calcium carbonate. There form string-of-pearls-like calcium carbonate crystal aggregates which are held together by fibrils, i.e.
- the diameter of the calcium carbonate particles in the aggregates is approx. 0.1-5.1 ⁇ m, typically approx. 0.2-3 ⁇ m.
- fibrils corresponding in the main (at least more than 55%) to wire screen fractions P50-P400 are used.
- the paper pulp is slushed in a manner known per se to a suitable consistency (typically a solids content of approx. 0.1-1%) and is spread onto the wire.
- a suitable consistency typically a solids content of approx. 0.1-1%) and is spread onto the wire.
- the above-mentioned filler usually in an amount of approx. 1-100% by weight of the weight of the fibers in the fiber pulp, in other words the amount of filler may be up to equal to the amount of the actual fiber pulp.
- the disclosed filler constitutes at least 5% by weight, most suitably 10-100% by weight, of the filler in the base web, and respectively 10-50% by weight of the fiber material in the base web.
- a base web in which the fiber material in its entirety is made up of filler fibrils, and thus in general the present filler may constitute 1-100% by weight of the fiber material in the base web.
- coated cellulose fibrils or lignocellulose fibrils constitute at maximum approx. 70%, e.g. approx. 10-65%, of the weight of the base web, in which case the rest of the web comprises conventional mechanical and/or chemical pulp used in papermaking and/or conventional fillers and/or other additives.
- a portion (at maximum 95%, usually 90-10% by weight, of the total amount of filler) of the filler used in the slush may consist of conventional fillers, such as calcium carbonate (natural or precipitated), kaolin, talc, hydrogenated aluminum oxides (aluminum trihydroxides), calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, calcium oxalate, or titanium dioxide.
- conventional fillers such as calcium carbonate (natural or precipitated), kaolin, talc, hydrogenated aluminum oxides (aluminum trihydroxides), calcium sulfate, barium sulfate, calcium oxalate, or titanium dioxide.
- at least 80%, especially preferably at least 90%, of the precipitated light-scattering pigment particles are attached to fibrils.
- the filler used is mainly a product in which the particles are not loose but attached to fibrils.
- the formation and retention of paper are improved by using a portion of the filler in a form bound to fibrils.
- the filler used is at least partly for example calcium carbonate, calcium oxalate, calcium sulfate or barium sulfate, of which a portion is in a pulverous form and a portion in a form attached to fibrils.
- a portion (at least approx. 5% by weight, preferably at least 10% by weight, most suitably at least 20% by weight) of the pulverous filler is replaced with a product attached to fibrils.
- the fiber pulp is formed into a paper or board web.
- the fiber web is dried and most suitably coated, and optionally after-treated by for example calendering.
- the web can be coated with, for example, calcium carbonate, gypsum, aluminum silicate, kaolin, aluminum hydroxide, magnesium silicate, talc, titanium dioxide, barium sulfate, zinc oxide, synthetic pigment, or mixtures thereof.
- the light-scattering material particles of the filler in the web are present in the fiber web in a substantially unflocculated form. This means that the formation of the web is quite good.
- the web contains conventional retention agents, such as cationic starch and/or silica, in total at maximum 0.40% by weight of the mass of the fiber.
- the web is substantially or entirely free of ionic retention agents.
- Conventional retention agents in particular include those used together with conventional fillers.
- cellulose-containing material is meant here generally paper or board or a corresponding cellulose-containing material derived from a lignocellulose-containing raw material, in particular wood or annual or perennial plants.
- the said material may be wood-containing or woodfree, and it may be prepared from mechanical, semimechanical (chemimechanical) or chemical pulp.
- the chemical pulp and the mechanical pulp may be bleached or unbleached.
