Definitions

  • This invention relates to paper sizing compositions; and more particularly, to paper sizing composiitions prepared by adding major amounts of hydrogenated animal fats or mixtures thereof with minor amounts of hydrogenated vegetable fats in combination with minor amounts of fatty acids, fats or oils to a mixture of casein, ammonium hydroxide and an alkali such as caustic soda, which are useful in aqueous dispersions in the beater.
  • aqueous dispersions of partially saponified rosin have remained the preferred sizing material of the paper industry. These aqueous dispersions are ordinarily added to the suspensions of pulp in the beater engine in amounts sufficient to provide from about one-half to above five percent by Weight of rosin based on the dry weight of the pulp.
  • the alkali neutralized rosin is precipitated as, theoretically, free rosin on the surfaces of the pulp fibers.
  • rosin paper sizes are known to possess certain disadvantages.
  • One of the greatest disadvantages of rosin sizes is that they produce foaming at numerous stages in the paper-making process; including such stages as, for example, the beater engine, the head box or pressure-foaming chamber for depositing the pulp suspensions on the moving screen, and in the white-water recirculating system.
  • Aqueous dispersions of rosin or rosin. derivatives also have a tendency to cause the blankets in paper machines to become clogged, thus reducing the ability of the blanket to absorb the liquid phase of the pulp suspensions and necessitating shut-down of the machines at regular intervals to clean the blanket.
  • the efficiency of rosin paper sizes is also not as great as is desired.
  • rosin sizes do not deposit uniformly, throughout the fibers of the paper nor over the surface of the individual particles of fiber and the adhesion of the rosin size to the fibers of the paper is not good.
  • the rosin size coating on the fibers contains a high percentage of bubbles which are microscopic in size, but which are detrimental to the appearance and uniformity of quality of the paper.
  • Rosin sizes also generally have a dark color which detract from the appearance of the sized paper.
  • papers sized with rosin are lacking in brightness and wet opacity; i.e., any opacity imparted to the paper by rosin size is lost when the paper becomes wet. Rosin sizes are also lacking in their ability to impart resistance to wate penetration to paper.
  • the improved sizing composition comprises water, hydrogenated fat and an emulsifying agent.
  • the size composition described therein comprises a major amount of a hydrogenated animal fat having a titer in the range of from 45 to about 61 C. or a mixture of a major amount of such a hydrogenated animal fat and a minor amount of a hydrogenated vegetable fat or oil having a titer in the range of from 45?
  • sizing efficiency is meant the degree of sizing accomplished by a certain concentration of sizing composition on a dispersion of pulp and is measured by preparing a sheet from the sized pulp and determining the time required for water to pass through the specimen.
  • a paper sizing composition which, when added as an aqueous dispersion to a suspension of paper pulp in a beater, is substantially uniformly distributed throughout the fibers; and, as well, uniformly distributed over the surface of each of the individual particles of fiber and which imparts to the final sized product a high degree of brightness, wet and dry opacity and resistance to water penetration.
