Definitions

  • the invention relates to a new method for the manufacture of fibrous yarn, and particularly for the manufacture of paper yarn. Further, the invention relates to fibrous yarn obtainable by said method, as well as uses of said fibrous yarn.
  • paper yarn which is traditionally manufactured from paper sheets.
  • the first and only industrial method was developed in the late 19 th century in Germany. It has been refined over time but the basic principle has remained the same and it is still in use today.
  • paper manufactured from chemical, mechanical or chemi-mechanical pulp is slit to strips (width typically from 5 to 40 mm), which are twisted to thread. Said thread may be subjected to dyeing and finishing.
  • the product (paper yarn) has limited applications because of deficiencies in its properties, such as limited strength, unsuitable thickness, layered or folded structure, and further, the manufacturing method is inefficient.
  • Cotton is very widely used as raw material in the manufacture of yarns and ropes.
  • the cultivation of cotton requires significant water resources and it is widely carried out in regions where there is shortage of water and food.
  • available water is used for the irrigation of cotton fields, the situation with regard to food supply becomes worse.
  • the use of cotton does not support sustainable development, and there is a need for alternative sources of fiber, suitable for replacing cotton at least partly.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a new method for the manufacture of fibrous yarn.
  • a further object is to provide a sustainable source of fibers for fibrous yarn.
  • a still further object is to provide fibrous yarn with improved and adjustable properties, suitable for varying applications of yarn.
  • aspects of the invention are thus directed to a method for the manufacture of fibrous yarn, said method comprising the steps of providing an aqueous suspension comprising fibers and at least one rheology modifier, directing said suspension through at least one nozzle having an inner diameter of the outlet smaller than or equal to the maximum length weighed fiber length of the fibers, to form at least one yarn, and subjecting said yarn to dewatering.
  • aspects of the invention are also directed to a yarn comprising fibers and at least one rheology modifier.
  • Said yarn is obtainable by the method described above.
  • aspects of the invention are also directed to the use and method of use of the obtained yarn in decoration, interior decor, furniture, clothes, bandages, dressings, textiles, in construction materials etc.
  • the ease of manufacture of the fibrous yarn, applicability of the yarn to various sites of use, possibility to design the properties of the yarn according to the intended use, small water footprint, biodegradability are some examples of the desired benefits achieved by the present invention.
  • FIG. 1 depicts one embodiment of the manufacturing method, where the yarn is produced on rotating drums.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates one suitable nozzle used in this method.
  • bond refers here to thread, yarn, chord, filament, wire, string, rope and strand.
  • rheology modifier is understood to mean here a compound or agent capable of modifying the viscosity, yield stress, thixotropy of the suspension.
  • fibrous yarn can be manufactured in a very simple and efficient way directly from a suspension comprising fibres and at least one rheology modifier, whereby it not necessary to manufacture first paper or other fibrous product, which is sliced into strips and wound to a yarn.
  • maximum length weighed fiber length of the fibers means length weighted fiber length where 90% of fibers are shorter or equal to this length. Fiber length may be measured with any suitable method used in the art.
  • the aqueous suspension in understood to mean any suspension comprising water and fibers originating from any and at least one plant based raw material source, including cellulose pulp, refined pulp, waste paper pulp, peat, fruit pulp, or pulp from annual plants.
  • the fibers may be isolated from any cellulose containing material using chemical, mechanical, thermo-mechanical, or chemi-thermo-mechanical pulping processes.
  • the plant based raw material source may be a virgin source or recycled source or any combination thereof. It may be wood or non-wood material.
  • the wood can be softwood tree such as spruce, pine, fir, larch, douglas-fir or hemlock, or hardwood tree such as birch, aspen, poplar, alder, eucalyptus or acacia, or a mixture of softwoods and hardwoods.
  • the non-wood material can be plant, such as straw, leaves, bark, seeds, hulls, flowers, vegetables or fruits from corn, cotton, wheat, oat, rye, barley, rice, flax, hemp, manilla hemp, sisal hemp, jute, ramie, kenaf, bagasse, bamboo, reed or peat.
  • Suitably virgin fibers originating from pine may be used.
  • Said fibers typically may have average length weighed fiber length from 2 to 3 mm.
  • combinations of longer fibers with shorter ones may be used, for example fibers from pine with fibers from eucalyptus.
  • the aqueous suspension may comprise from 0.1 to 10% w/w, preferably from 0.2 to 2% w/w of fibers originating from any plant based raw material source.
  • suspension may optionally comprise virgin or recycled fibers originating from synthetic materials, such as glass fibers, polymeric fibers, metal fibers, or from natural materials, such as wool fibers, or silk fibers.
  • synthetic materials such as glass fibers, polymeric fibers, metal fibers, or from natural materials, such as wool fibers, or silk fibers.
  • the aqueous suspension may comprise at least one rheology modifier that forms a gel by crosslinking the suspension, suitably selected from alginic acid, alginates such as sodium alginate, pectin, carrageenan, and nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC), or a combination of rheology modifiers.
  • alginic acid alginates such as sodium alginate, pectin, carrageenan, and nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC), or a combination of rheology modifiers.
  • cations particularly divalent or multivalent cations, suitably such as Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Sr 2+ or Ba 2+
  • alginate, pectin and carrageenan (carrageenan cross-links also with K + ) readily form a stable and strong gel.
  • calcium chloride is preferably used.
  • the concentration of salt solution may vary from 1% w/w to 10% w/w.
  • G-block poly-L-guluronic acid (G-block) content of alginate
  • poly-D-galacturonic acid content of pectin or carrageenan and the amount of divalent or multivalent cations (calcium ions) are regarded as being involved in determining gel strength.
  • nanofibrillar cellulose or “nanofibrillated cellulose” refers to a collection of isolated cellulose microfibrils or microfibril bundles derived from cellulose raw material. Microfibrils have typically high aspect ratio: the length might exceed one micrometer while the number-average diameter is typically below 200 nm. The diameter of microfibril bundles can also be larger but generally less than 1 ⁇ m. The smallest microfibrils are similar to so called elementary fibrils, which are typically 2-12 nm in diameter. The dimensions of the fibrils or fibril bundles are dependent on raw material and disintegration method. The nanofibrillar cellulose may also contain some hemicelluloses; the amount is dependent on the plant source.
  • Nanofibrillar cellulose is obtained through disintegration of plant cellulose material and can be called “nanofibrillated cellulose”. “Nanofibrillar cellulose” can also be directly isolated from certain fermentation processes.
  • the cellulose-producing micro-organism of the present invention may be of the genus Acetobacter, Agrobacterium, Rhizobium, Pseudomonas or Alcaligenes, preferably of the genus Acetobacter and more preferably of the species Acetobacter xylinum or Acetobacter pasteurianus.
  • “Nanofibrillar cellulose” can also be any chemically or physically modified derivate of cellulose nanofibrils or nanofibril bundles. The chemical modification could be based for example on carboxymethylation, oxidation, esterification, or etherification reaction of cellulose molecules. Modification could also be realized by physical adsorption of anionic, cationic, or non-ionic substances or any combination of these on cellulose surface. The described modification can be carried out before, after, or during the production of microfibrillar cellulose.
