6 Claims. (Cl. 161-117) ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Wood chips for paper making pulp each being of curved contour whereby one major surface is convexly curved and the other major surface is concavely curved, there being a plurality of cracks in the convexly curved surface extending in the grainwise direction of the wood. Each chip has a thickness of about 0.1 to about 0.3 inch and a maximum dimension from end to end and from side to side of six inches.
This invention relates to wood chips for use in the production of pulp for paper making. This application is a continuation-in-part of patent application Ser. No. 258,697, filed Feb. 15, 1963, now abandoned.
It has long been recognized that the characteristics of chips as produced for pulping have a very substantial effect upon the quality of the resulting pulp. One of the most important of these characteristics is the fiber condition of the chips employed. If the fibers in the chips are in damaged condition, the resulting pulp will be of lower quality depending upon the extent of fiber damage in the chi s.
i nother factor that has a substantial bearing upon pulp quality is the dimensional characteristic of the chip. The most important dimension is that of thickness. If the chip is excessively thin it will be overcooked. If it is too thick, it will not be cooked in the center and pulp screen rejects will be high.
It is also highly desirable, for uniform pulp quality, that the chips employed conform to certain uniform characteristics including size.
It is an object of this invention to provide a wood chip for pulping which possesses desirable shape, size and other characteristics whereby there is achieved better uniformity in pulp production with consequent greater yield of good quality pulp and less reject material.
Another object of the invention is to provide a wood chip for pulping the fibers of which have minimal damage as compared with the natural state thereof whereby pulp produced therefrom is of higher grade.
The invention resides in a wood chip for pulping which comprises a body having two major side surfaces in opposed relation to each other and substantially uniformly spaced from each other, two side edge surfaces, and two end edge surfaces, each of the side edge surfaces being approximately at right angles to the grain of the wood in the body whereby the grain extends substantially transversely of the major side surfaces. The space between the major side surfaces is about 0.065 to 0.500 inch. The chip is curled somewhat, one of the major side surfaces being convexly curved and the other being concavely curved. The convexly curved surface has therein a plurality of cracks extending from one to the other of the side edge surfaces. Each of the side edge surfaces is disposed at a specified angle of 85 to to one of the major side surfaces.
Further, in accordance with the invention, the fibers in the chip body are compressed in the grainwise direction thereof less than 0.060 inch per inch as compared with the natural condition of the fibers.
3,396,069 Patented Aug. 6, 1968 The invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which FIGURE 1 is a plan view of a chip in accordance with the invention,
FIGURE 2 is a side elevation, and
FIGURE 3 is an end elevation.
Referring to the drawing, the chip 10 has two major side surfaces 11 and 12, surface 11 being convexly curved and surface 12 being concavely curved. The chip also has two side edge surfaces 13 and two end edge surfaces 14. The grain or fiber direction of the chip, as indicated at 15, extends transversely of the major side surfaces 11 and 12, that is; substantially right angularly with respect to side edge surfaces 13.
The thickness of the chip, that is; the distance between the major side surfaces 11 and 12, is substantially uniform throughout and about 0.1 to 0.3 inch.
It has been found that the selection of chips of the specified thickness is necessary for most effective pulp production. As previously indicated, chips of a thickness above about 0.3 inch are unsuitable because pulp screen rejects are unduly high. Use of chips having a thickness below about 0.1 inch is undesirable because the bulk density is reduced and, furthermore, the production capacity of batch pulping equipment is reduced.
The chip dimension in the grainwise direction thereof, that is, the distance between side edge surfaces 13 may range from about /2 to 6 inches.
The chip dimension in the crossgrain direction thereof, that is, the distance between end edge surfaces 14, may range from about one to six inches.
The chip employed in accordance with the invention is somewhat curled as shown in the drawing, that is, the surface 11 is convexly curved and the surface 12 is concavely curved. Such a curled chip has a plurality of transverse cracks 16 in the surface 11 thereof, each such crack extending substantially from one to the other of edge surfaces 13. These cracks occur at a spacing of not substantially more than one-quarter inch. Moreover, since the thickness of the chip will not substantially exceed 0.3 inch, the depth of each crack is substantially greater than one-half of such thickness.
The presence of the grainwise splitting or cracking condition of the chip is of significant importance since it results in the presentation of a greatly enlarged chip surface area for penetration of pulping chemicals with consequent more uniform reaction conditions.
Each side edge surface 13 is disposed at an angle of to 5 to the major side surface 12. It has been found that when the chip has been formed by cutting at such an angle (indicated at A in FIGURE 3) to produce such side edge surfaces, fiber damage is reduced.
The invention further resides in selecting a chip having not only the aforementioned characteristics but one in which there is granwise compression less than 0.060 inch per inch as compared with the natural conditions of the fibers in the chip. By natural condition as employed in this specification and claims is meant the condition of the particular fibers in the log before the chip was cut therefrom.
It has been found that, if the fibers of the chip are not more greatly compressed than 0.060 inch per inch of wood, the fiber damage is not of great consequence and pulp produced therefrom will be of uniformly high quality.
Sulphite pulp prepared from chips produced in accordance with the invention has much superior qualities as compared with sulphite pulp prepared from chips produced by presently available commercial chippers. The following tables give the results of comparison tests, column numbered (1) being values relating to regular pulp prepared from chips produced in conventional commer- 3 cial manner and column numbered (2) being values relating to pulp prepared from chips produced in accordance with the invention.
