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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.
