Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the technical field of paper production and the polymers used in this field.
  • the invention relates to a process for the manufacture of a paper or paperboard with improved retention.
  • bentonite be added to the pulp, possibly together with other mineral products such as aluminum sulfates or even synthetic polymers, notably polyethylene imine (see for example the documents DE-A-2 262 906 and U.S. Pat. No. 2,368,635).
  • cross-linked retention aids as described, for example, in European patent 0 202 780, primarily for the treatment of water, and secondarily for paper. It is important to note that it uses a cross-linked product, which is added to the suspension to be flocculated, the flocs then being sheared during the paper production process, that is, sheared in and at the same time as the paper pulp. The flocs are thus transformed into flocs that are smaller and more shear resistant, therefore more tenacious. This document neither suggests nor describes any shearing of the polymer itself before introduction into the suspension to be flocculated.
  • flocs of fairly large size are formed, and are then sheared so as to form flocs which, in the documents cited, are said to be smaller and more tenacious.
  • European patent 0 201 237 describes a flocculation process in which a polymer material is added to water to form an aqueous composition, and is used to flocculate the solid matter in suspension in an aqueous suspension, said polymer comprising a polymer of high molecular weight that is subjected to a shearing, this shearing being carried out before or during the flocculation and the polymer being required to have certain intrinsic properties, which are indicated in this patent.
  • the polymer is a polymer of high molecular weight, formed from water-soluble monomers or from a mixture of such monomers, and the polymer is subjected to shearing.
  • the process described in this patent is characterized in that it is possible to carry out the shearing before or during the flocculation.
  • European patent 0 201 237 further indicates that the polymer used comprises a cross-linked water-swellable polymer which it is possible to shear to an intrinsic viscosity of at least 4 dl/g. It is also indicated that the aqueous composition containing the polymer material can be a stable and homogenous composition, the shearing in this case causing an increase in the intrinsic viscosity of at least 1 dl/g.
  • stable and homogenous designates a polymer composition that is stable when the polymer is at full equilibrium with the water, i.e., when it has reached its ultimate degree of solubility or swelling.
  • the composition is also homogeneous in the sense that the polymer remains uniformly dispersed throughout the composition, without having a tendency to precipitate after several days.
  • the document also indicates that it is possible to carry out the shearing on the production line, as the suspension to be flocculated approaches a centrifuge, a filter press or a belt press, or another water removal stage. It is also indicated that the shear can be applied during a water removal stage that is conducted under a certain shear, preferably in a centrifuge or even in a filter press or a belt press.
  • this document only teaches a shearing of the flocs in the mixing pump or “fan pump” for the papermaking application. Moreover, it teaches that very low shear rates can be appropriate in the other applications, since filter presses and belt presses induce very low shear.
  • the invention eliminates the drawbacks mentioned above.
  • Its object is an improved process of the type in question, which incorporates operations comprised of adding to the suspension or fibrous mass to be flocculated, or paper pulp,
  • the second retention aid is bentonite, and in this field the reader is referred to the teaching of the above-mentioned U.S. Pat. No. 4,753,710, which can advantageously be replaced by a kaolin, preferably pre-treated by a polyelectrolyte, according to the teaching of French patent 95 13 051 filed in the name of the Applicant; and it would be useful for one skilled in the art to refer to these documents for the details of implementation, the usual additives, etc.
  • This process according to the invention makes it possible to obtain a distinctly improved retention of fines and fillers without a reverse effect.
  • An additional characteristic of this improvement is that the drainage properties are also improved, which is unexpected given the improvement of the retention, and excellent formation is maintained, which is also surprising.
  • the cross-linked polyacrylamide (or more generally the cross-linked (co)polymer) is introduced into the suspension or pulp to be flocculated in the form of the reverse phase water-in-oil emulsion derived from the synthesis, and itself “inverted” in water, or in the form of a solution in water, with about 5 g of polymer/liter, of the powder obtained by drying the reverse phase water-in-oil emulsion from the synthesis, said emulsion or said solution being sheared before introduction into the pulp or suspension to be flocculated, the dosage for the introduction being established at a rate of 0.03 to one per mill (0.03 to 1% o, or 30 to 1000 g/t) by weight of active material (polymer) relative to the dry weight of the fibrous suspension, preferably 0.15 to 0.5 per mill, or 150 to 500 g/t.
  • this water-in-oil polymer emulsion is diluted in water to obtain a polymer content on the order of 5 to 10 g/l, preferably close to 5 g/l, and is thus “inverted” by this dilution to form a solution, which is sheared according to the invention before its introduction into the pulp.
  • Example 3 shows that the results of the sheared solution of the powder obtained by drying the emulsion are equivalent.
  • flocs of fairly large size are formed, which are then sheared so as to form flocs which, in the documents cited, are said to be smaller and more tenacious.
  • the “dual” systems of the prior art were essentially composed of linear polymers with an addition of bentonite, or of a branched polyacrylamide or a starch, with an addition of colloidal silica, this last component being extremely expensive.
  • a main retention aid is used, which is cross-linked and which is sheared before its introduction into the pulp, preferably in the form of a reverse phase water-in-oil emulsion, which leads directly to microflocs without going through the shearing of larger flocs involving the fibrous mass.
  • the Applicant in effect maintains that a microflocculation occurs directly as a result of the intense shearing carried out on the polymer itself before its injection into the fibrous mass of pulp, which is quite a different (and unexpected) process than reducing the size of large flocs (involving the fibrous mass) into smaller, more tenacious flocs, and which results in unforeseen improvements in the properties of the paper or paperboard sheet.
  • the monomers used for the preparation of the (co)polymer can be nonionic, but generally at least some of the monomers used to form the polymer are ionic.
  • the monomers are normally monomers with monoethylenic unsaturation, sometimes allylic monomers, but generally vinyl monomers. These are generally acrylic or methacrylic monomers.
  • Suitable nonionic monomers are acrylamide, methacrylamide, N-vinyl methyl acetamide or formamide, vinyl acetate, vinylpyrrolidone, methyl methacrylate or methacrylates of other acrylic esters, or of other esters with ethylenic unsaturation, or even of other vinyl monomers that are insoluble in water such as styrene or acrylonitrile.
  • Suitable anionic monomers are for example sodium acrylate, sodium methacrylate, sodium itaconate, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate (AMPS), the sulfopropylacrylates or sulfopropylmethacrylates, or other water-soluble forms of these polymerizable sulfonic or carboxylic acids. It is possible to use a sodium vinylsulfonate or an allylsulfonate, or a sulfomethyl acrylamide.
  • AMPS 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate
  • Suitable cationic monomers are the dialkylaminoalkyl acrylates and methacrylates, particularly dialkylaminoethyl acrylate, as well as their acid salts or their quaternary products, and even the dialkylaminoalkylalkylacrylamides or methacrylamides, as well as their acid salts and the products of quaternization, for example methacrylamidopropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride and the Mannich products such as the quaternized dialkylaminomethylacrylamides.
  • the alkyl groups in question are generally C 1 -C 4 alkyl groups.
  • the monomers can contain hydrophobic groups, for example as described in European patent 0 172 723, and in certain cases allylic ether monomers could be preferred.
  • (co)polyacrylamide will be used herein to designate all of the combinations of these monomers, which are well known to one skilled in the art.
  • the cross-linked (co)polyacrylamide is a cationic copolymer of acrylamide and of an unsaturated cationic ethylenic monomer, chosen from the group comprising dimethylaminoethyl acrylate (ADAME), dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (MADAME), quaternized or salified by different acids and quaterinizing agents, benzyl chloride, methyl chloride, alkyl or aryl chloride, dimethyl sulfate, diallyldimethylammonium chloride (DADMAC), acrylamidopropyltrimethylammonium chloride (APTAC), and methacrylamidopropyltrimethylammonium chloride (MAPTAC).

  • this (co)polymer is cross-linked by a cross linker constituted by a compound having at least two reagent groups chosen from the group comprising the double bonds, the aldehyde bonds or the epoxy bonds.
  • a cross linker constituted by a compound having at least two reagent groups chosen from the group comprising the double bonds, the aldehyde bonds or the epoxy bonds.
  • a cross-linked polymer is a polymer which, in the branched chain, has groups or branchings disposed globally in three dimensions, resulting in practically insoluble products of infinite molecular weight; cross-linked polymers of this type having high molecular weights are well known as flocculating agents, for example as described in European patent 0 202 780 or European patent 0 201 237, whose teachings are equivalent.
  • the cross-linking can be carried out during or after the polymerization, for example by reaction of two soluble polymers having counter-ions, or by reaction on formaldehyde or a polyvalent metal compound. Often, the cross-linking is carried out during the polymerization by addition of a cross linker, and this method is clearly preferred according to the invention. These processes for polymerization with cross-linking are known.
  • cross linkers that can be incorporated comprise ionic cross linkers such as polyvalent metal salts, formaldehyde, glyoxal, or preferably, covalent cross linkers that will copolymerize with the monomers, preferably monomers with diethylenic unsaturation (like the family of diacrylate esters such as the diacrylates of polyethylene glycol PEG) or polyethylenic unsaturation, of the type classically used for the cross-linking of water-soluble polymers, and particularly methylenebisacrylamide (MBA), or any of the other known acrylic cross linkers.

  • the cross linker is methylenebisacrylamide (MBA), introduced at a rate of five to two hundred (5 to 200) moles per million moles of monomers, preferably 5 to 50, preferably 10 or 20.
  • MBA methylenebisacrylamide
  • the quantity of cross-linked polyacrylamide introduced is between 0.03 per mill and one per mill (0.03% o and 1% o) or between thirty and one thousand grams of active polymer/ton of dry pulp (30 and 1000 g/t), preferably between 0.15 and 0.5 per mill (% o) of the quantity of dry pulp, or from 150 to 500 g/t; it was observed that if the quantity is less than 0.03% o, no significant retention is obtained; likewise, if this quantity exceeds 1% o, no proportional improvement is observed; however, unlike the linear cationic polyacrylamides, as described in the documents EP-A-0 017 353 and EP 0 235 893 mentioned in the preamble, there is no observed reverse dispersion effect by recirculation in the closed circuits of the excess polymer not retained in the sheet.
  • cross-linked polymer be prepared in the form of a reverse phase emulsion in order to achieve the improvement of the invention.
  • Bentonite also known as “smectic swelling clay,” from the montmorillonite family, is well known and there is no need to describe it in detail here; these compounds, formed of microcrystallites, comprise surface sites having a high cation exchange capacity capable of retaining water (see for example the document U.S. Pat. No. 4,305,781, which corresponds to the document EP-A-0 017 353 mentioned above, and FR-A-2 283 102).
  • a commercial bentonite CPB1 with a density of 900 kg/m 3 , a swelling capacity of 40 ml/g, a cation exchange capacity of 85 meq/100 g in the dry state, and an average size of ⁇ 75 microns, was used.
  • the use of this bentonite is not limiting.
  • a semisodic bentonite is used, which is introduced just upstream from the headbox, at a rate of 0.1 to 0.5 percent (0.1 to 0.5%) of the dry weight of the fibrous suspension.
  • kaolins GCC or ground CaCO 3 , precipitated CaCO 3 or PCC, and the like.
  • a cross-linked retention aid prepared in the form of a reverse phase emulsion, is either used directly in the form of the synthetic emulsion (“inverted” as described above), or in the form of the solution of the powder obtained by drying said emulsion, the emulsion or the solution being sheared before its injection or introduction into the pulp to be flocculated, which leads directly to microflocs without going through the shearing of larger flocks involving the fibrous mass.
  • the Applicant in effect maintains that a microflocculation occurs directly when the intense-shearing is carried out on the polymer itself before its injection into the fibrous mass of pulp, which is quite a different process than reducing the size of large flocs (involving the fibrous mass) into smaller, more tenacious flocs, which results in unforeseen improvements in the properties of the paper or paperboard sheet.
  • a shearing of the pulp in a pump of the “fan pump” type does not produce the anticipated result.
  • the invention chiefly relates to a process without intercalary shearing of the pulp, but also to a process comprising such an intercalary shearing, whether it be deliberate or imposed by the constraints of the existing equipment.
  • the properties obtained will be better without this intercalary shearing, but if the injection point of the sheared polymer cannot be chosen freely by the paper manufacturer because of the existing equipment, the paper manufacturer can benefit from the excellent set of properties provided by the invention without having to modify its machine.

  • This variant of the method is very interesting since the dried product according to the invention behaves substantially like the emulsion, and this variant therefore provides a method for using dry products having the advantages of an emulsion, which it is not always possible to prepare by direct polymerization in the aqueous phase, in gel form or in solution.

  • Example 3 corresponds to a linear polymer similar to the “HYDROCOL”TM technique of the above-mentioned U.S. patent '710 (a linear polymer). The results are therefore similar to test 7, which corresponds to the technique of U.S. patent '710 likewise, tests 2 and 6 are comparable (a linear polymer, but without bentonite).
  • Test 5 corresponds to a cross-linked polymer emulsion, sheared before injection into the pulp, and hence according to the invention, which leads to a extremely advantageous performance in terms of drainage (CSF Canadian Standard Freeness) while having excellent formation (an index of 1 as opposed to 2 for the other comparable tests).
  • Tests 8 through 13 verified the effect obtained when attempting to eliminate the shearing of the pulp between the two additions, in contrast to U.S. patent '710. It may be seen that, in a “HYDROCOL”TM context, it is important to shear the pulp. In effect, it is possible to obtain a very high flocculation if the pulp is not sheared, but the formation suffers (indexes of 4 or 5), making it unusable.
