Definitions

  • the current invention relates to the field of wood, pulp and paper production. More specifically, it relates to the production of light-stable hgnocellulosic materials, in particular, the production of mechanical wood pulps and papers with much improved light stability, as well as to the resulting pulps and papers having improved light stability.
  • the primary components of wood are the fibrous, hydrophilic carbohydrates (cellulose and hemicelluloses) and the three-dimensional, hydrophobic lignin.
  • wood either in the form of whole logs, wood chips or sawmill residues, must first be reduced to pulps (discrete fibres) by a chemical or mechanical pulping process.
  • pulps discrete fibres
  • pulps are produced in a yield of 45-55% through the dissolution of lignin by the pulping chemicals.
  • chemical pulps is the so-called kraft pulp produced from the kraft pulping process where sodium hydroxide and sodium sulf ⁇ de are used as the pulping chemicals.
  • thermomechanical pulp TMP
  • CTMP chemithermomechanical pulp
  • papers are produced from chemical wood pulps or mechanical wood pulps, or a combination of both, together with various papermakmg additives.
  • lignin-containing mechanical wood pulps have a light, yellow-brown colour. Bleaching of these pulps to a whiter colour is necessary if they are to be used alone or in combination with bleached chemical pulps to make high-quality papers.
  • the whiteness of pulps and papers is commonly estimated by ISO brightness determination which measures the directional reflectance of light at 457 nm of the papers [TAPPI Test Methods, T452 om-92, Tappi Press: Atlanta, 1996].
  • Unbleached, lignin-containing mechanical wood pulps have ISO brightness values between 45-65%, depending on the wood species and the pulping conditions.
  • alkaline hydrogen peroxide in the presence of peroxide stabilizers such as sodium silicate and magnesium sulfate, is capable of bleaching mechanical wood pulps such as spruce TMP from an initial brightness of 55-60% to 70- 80%.

  • the light-induced yellowing (brightness reversion) of lignin- containing mechanical wood pulps is known to be due to the l oxidation of lignin.
  • many methods have been reported for the improvement of the light/brightness stability of mechanical wood pulps or papers.

Heitner and Scaiano, p.192 - 204, ACS Symposium Series 531, ACS 1993].

Abstract

L'invention concerne un nouveau procédé de production de matières lignocellulosiques stables à la lumière, et plus particulièrement, un procédé de production de pâtes mécaniques présentant une stabilité à la lumière nettement améliorée, ainsi que les pâtes à stabilité à la lumière améliorée obtenues et les papiers contenant ces pâtes. Ce nouveau procédé consiste à faire réagir des matières lignocellulosiques, telle que de la pâte thermomécanique blanchie, avec un inhibiteur du jaunissement sensible aux fibres hydrosoluble renfermant un groupe fonctionnel amine primaire ou secondaire (-NH2 ou -NHR) dans un milieu aqueux, ou avec un photostabilisant à blocage amine sensible aux fibres hydrosoluble renfermant un groupe fonctionnel amine primaire ou secondaire (-NH2 ou -NHR) dans un milieu de blanchiment utilisant du peroxyde d'hydrogène dans les séquences d'extraction alcaline ou dans un milieu aqueux avec un blanchiment ultérieur des matières dans un milieu de blanchiment utilisant du peroxyde d'hydrogène dans les séquences d'extraction alcaline. Des exemples de ces inhibiteurs de jaunissement sensibles aux fibres hydrosolubles et de ces photostabilisants à blocage amine sont les 4-amino-2,2,6,6-tetraméthylpipéridine-N-oxyl (4-amino-TEMPO) et 4-amino-2,2,6,6-tetraméthylpipéridine, respectivement, disponibles dans le commerce.
