- process I the application of a starch being insoluble in water
- process II the application of a starch being soluble in water
- Process I for manufacturing a sheet with a starch insoluble in cold water is a process for manufacturing a sheet with a starch insoluble in cold water .
- the process for manufacturing a fibrous sheet comprising at least 30% of papermaking fibres that can disintegrate in less than 120 seconds in water comprises a step of preparing a pulp by suspending said fibres in water, a step of forming the sheet from said pulp and a drying step.
- This process is characterized in that it includes the addition, before said drying step, of a starch which is not soluble in water at the temperature at which it is incorporated, and the drying of the sheet containing the starch at a temperature high enough to gelatinize at least some of the starch.
- the purpose is to make the starch soluble in water so that the sheet is disintegrable .
- water-insoluble starch is understood to mean a starch which, when cold, mixed with water and stirred, essentially forms a suspension. In other words, the starch grains or particles remain predominantly suspended in water. When the stirring is stopped, the starch particles precipitate. The temperature at which it is incorporated is below the gelatinization temperature of the starch.
- Starch comprises natural products of plant origin, such as wheat, maize, potato, rice, tapioca or sorghum starches, and other starches, composed of polymers or polysaccharides of high molecular weight.
- the plant matter is treated by grinding-steeping and centrifugation in order to extract the starch.
- Native starch corresponds to the product extracted without molecular modification. Native starch is insoluble in water - it behaves as filler.
- the starch is mixed, with stirring, into excess water so as to form a starch suspension.
- water penetrates into the starch particles, these starch particles swell and the suspension is converted into a colloidal solution which thickens, gelatinizes and becomes viscous.
- the gelatinization temperature depends on the plant: maize 60-72oC; wheat 60-65oC; tapioca 52-64oC/ potato 58- 66°C.
- the particles burst and the macromolecules constituting the starch emerge from the particles and dissolve in water. The presence of water in sufficient amounts is essential for this gelatinization and dissolution of the starch.
- the preferred starches that can be used in the process, in so far as they are insoluble in water may thus comprise products derived from natural starch, which are converted by a physical, chemical or physico- chemical treatment or by a biological treatment, for example an enzyme treatment, and derived or modified starches such as cationic, anionic, amphoteric, non- ionic or crosslinked starches and products resulting from starch hydrolysis, such as maltodextrins . These starches are termed modified starches, while still keeping the property of being insoluble in water.
- a tuber starch is used, such as potato starch, since the particles are relatively coarser than those of other starches, for example maize starch, and has a higher retention in the sheet.
- a preferred starch is an anionic modified potato starch, such as a starch marketed under the name Perfectacote A35 from Avebe, or a non ionic starch named Stackote 6 form National Starch.
- Preferred starches present a substitution grade of 0.01 to 0.07 wherein the substituted groups are carboxylic groups. These starches have a low viscosity at the gelatinization temperature (52 oC for Perfectacote) that remains very stable with the time. For the present use this property is favourable to a good distribution within the fibrous sheet.
- the aim is to gelatinize all the starch present in the sheet and provide a starch distribution through the whole thickness of the sheet.
- the process according to the invention advantageously includes a step of pressing the sheet before the drying step.
- the water-insoluble starch is incorporated into the process water, which is at a temperature generally below 50oC.
- the water-insoluble starch is advantageously incorporated into the pulp upstream of the forming table.
- the starch suspension may thus be uniformly mixed with the pulp fibres. It may also be envisioned, although this is not optimal, to incorporate the water-insoluble starch when the sheet is on the forming wire, especially by spraying it onto the sheet or by any other conventional means of application.
- the water-insoluble starch is supplied in an amount sufficient to give the sheet the abovementioned properties .
- the sheet is dried with the temperature being progressively raised so as to reach complete gelatinization of the starch and to make it soluble.
- progressively raising the temperature it is possible to control the amount of water present in the sheet at the gelatinization temperature and to maintain a sufficient amount of water for making all the particles burst.
- the invention does not exclude the possibility of adding an additional step consisting in depositing a certain amount of starch by couching in the drying section so as to give the paper sheet a particular property, provided that this additional layer does not impair the disintegrability of the sheet.
- Process II for manufacturing a sheet with a water- soluble or water insoluble starch The process for manufacturing a fibrous sheet comprising at least 30% of papermaking fibres that can disintegrate in less than 120s. in water is characterized in that it consists in forming at least a first ply and a second ply of fibres by wet processing, in depositing the starch on the second fibrous ply, in depositing the first fibrous ply on the second fibrous ply, in joining the two plies to form a sheet and in drying said sheet .
- the number of plies is not limited to two - the sheet may comprise at least three plies, for example up to about ten plies.
- the starch can be deposited between the plies after they have been formed but this is not mandatory.
- the starch is supplied in an amount sufficient to give the sheet the above properties.
- water-soluble the starch is chosen so that its rate of dissolution is appropriate with the amount of water present in the paper fibre ply formed by wet processing. It is thus capable of giving the sheet both dry strength and solubility in water.
- water-soluble starches are modified starches including maltodextrins compounds.
- Some examples of such starches are AVEDEX (dextrinized potato starch) from AVEBE, CARGILL MD01904 (maltodextrins) from CARGILL.
- the starch is supplied dry, in the form of a powder or in the form of a sheet or a film.
- This embodiment is advantageous in so far as the starch is activated by the water present in the fibrous plies without supplying additional water .
- the sheet is pressed, before drying or calendered after drying, in order to obtain a sheet after drying with a density between 350 kg/m 3 and 450 kg/m 3
- Figure 1 shows a diagram of a paper machine seen in a side view used for the manufacture of a sheet of heavy paper according to process I suitable for the production of a core according to the invention.
- Figure 2 shows a diagram of a paper machine seen in a side view used for the manufacture of a sheet of heavy paper according to process II.
- Process I is implemented on a paper machine 1, which is itself conventional, as presented in Figure 1. It is shown from the upstream end to the downstream end in the direction of manufacture.
- the pulp is contained in the chest 2 in which the fibres are kept in suspension and the additives are incorporated; the paper pulp is pumped into the head box 3, which in particular comprises a pulp distributor in the form of a blade, designated "jet" extending over the entire width of the machine.
- the pulp is deposited on the endless wire 4 of the forming table 5.
- This wire 4 forms a loop and runs endlessly around the parallel rollers of the table supporting it. It is jerked laterally so as to undergo a reciprocating motion that promotes uniform formation of the paper sheet and dewatering thereof.
- the fibres are aligned along the run direction of the wire.
- the paper sheet contains 75 to 85% water on leaving the table.
- the sheet is introduced into the press section 6 where the water content is reduced to 60 or 70%.
- the presses comprise several pairs of rubber-coated cylinders. This operation also increases the density of the sheet and improves its surface finish by mechanical action.
- the paper sheet then enters the dry end, designated the drying section, of the paper machine, which comprises a plurality of dryers 7.
- the dryers 7 are cast iron drums heated internally with steam at a temperature high enough for the water contained in the sheet to be progressively evaporated until at least 90% dryness is achieved. Conventionally, the surface temperature of the drums is around 95°C.
- the sheet is held against the dryers by a heavy cotton felt or a drying fabric composed of cotton and artificial fibres.
- the conventional machines for manufacturing printing or writing paper also include size presses, for surface treatment and for deposition of an appropriate composition, and optionally a breaker stack or calendering station before the paper is wound up into a reel. This reel is then used as master reel in the subsequent conversion steps.
- the paper is essentially dried in the drying section before being reeled up.
- starch is added in the wet end of the paper machine before the press.
- the starch is incorporated in the form of a suspension in water.
- the starch may be deposited on the sheet by spraying, while said sheet is resting on the wire 4 as it travels along the forming table 5.
- the starch may be introduced further upstream, prior to sheet formation.
- An advantageous zone for introducing it is located at the inlet of the transfer pump between the chest and the head box.
- the starch remains in suspension in the manufacturing composition introduced into the head box.
- the starch introduced at this stage is not soluble in water, i.e. it is water-insoluble. It becomes soluble as the sheet passes through the drying section.
- the temperature of the successive dryers is advantageously regulated in such a way that the temperature of the sheet is gradually raised until reaching the gelatinization temperature of the starch that it contains.
- the temperature of the successive drums may be controlled between 60oC and 100 °C. The purpose is to maintain a sufficient amount of water in the sheet for gelatinization to effectively take place and to allow the starch to become soluble. If the amount of water were to be insufficient, some of the starch would not be gelatinized. Once the starch in the sheet has gelatinized and become soluble, said sheet can continue to be dried to the desired dryness.
- the pressing, drying and reeling are adapted so as to obtain the desired final moisture content of the product.
- the sheet thus continuously produced is reeled up for subsequent use.
- the manufacturing parameters of the sheet C are determined so as to obtain a core having the desired properties .
- the fibres used are long, short or recycled papermaking fibres and also mixtures thereof.
- the water-insoluble starch is preferably chosen so that the size of the insoluble particles is large enough not to easily filter through the wet sheet. It is also possible to incorporate other additives providing an additional function, such as disinfectants, cleaning agents or perfumes.
- Retention agents may also be added so as to improve the retention of starch in the sheet, in particular for sheets of low weight.
- the starch is coloured so as to check that the binder is correctly distributed through the thickness.
- it represents an improvement in aesthetic terms.
- the machine comprised three dryer units each composed of two cylinders. A 270 g/m 2 paper sheet containing about 33% starch was manufactured.
- a pulp having a 2.5% concentration was prepared in a 10 m 3 chest.
- the pulp having a mass of 250 kg, was made up of:
- the content of the mixing chest was transferred to the chest of the machine.
- the temperatures of the six drying cylinders were controlled so as to have a progressive rise in temperature.
- the starch content, which was measured in the sheet, was on average 33% relative to the total weight of the sheet.
- the paper machine 100 comprises a first unit 102 for forming a ply of papermaking fibres by wet processing on a Fourdrinier table, shown here, or else on a cylinder mould.
- the ply Cl is formed by depositing, via the head box 121, a pulp formed from papermaking fibres suspended in water on the permeable moving wire 122 of the first forming table 120.
- the wire forms a loop and runs endlessly around the parallel rollers supporting it.
- the ply Cl undergoes a first dewatering step as it travels along with the wire 122.
- the first fibrous ply C 1 is taken up by a pick-up felt 130 which moves translationally in a loop around parallel support rollers, one 131 of which presses on the first ply Cl, which is partly dewatered, at the end of travel on the flat portion of the forming table 120 around the roller 123.
- the first ply Cl is transported by the felt to a second Fourdrinier table 140 of the second unit 104 for forming a second ply C 2 of papermaking fibres.
- This ply C 2 is formed here, like the first, by depositing, via a head box 141, a pulp with a fibrous suspension on the moving wire 142 of the table 140.
- the fibrous ply C 2 thus formed is dewatered like the first one through the permeable wire.
- the pick-up felt presses via a roller 132 on the second fibrous ply C 2 so as to take off the second ply at the cylinder 143 at the end of the table 140.
- the two fibrous plies are joined together as a single sheet C which is directed towards the gap left between two rollers of a press 105 for extracting a further portion of the water from the two plies while pressing the sheet.
- the sheet is then guided towards the drying unit (not shown), which may be conventional.
- the number of plies is not limited to two.
- a system 106 for depositing starch L, in powder form is placed upstream of the two cylinders 132 and 143.
- the system used enables the powder to be distributed uniformly in the desired amount over the width of the second fibrous ply C 2 and in a regular fashion in the run direction of the machine.
- Equipment comprising a product storage hopper, a product metering device and an oscillating brush is used to fulfil all these conditions.
- the ply of papermaking fibres, here C 2 which is formed by wet processing and on which the starch is deposited, has a dryness ranging from about 10% to about 15%.
- a powdered water-soluble starch is deposited on the second ply of papermaking fibres C 2 - before the two plies are placed against each other and pressed together - when the ply is sufficiently dewatered and has a dryness sufficient to retain the product in the structure of the ply and to limit the removal of some of the starch with the dewatering water.
- the deposited starch is sandwiched between the two plies thus formed, still in the wet state, and reacts with the residual water of each ply.
- the fibre ply/starch/fibre ply complex is transported by the felt 130 to the pressing zone 105, the operating conditions of which are adapted, and then into the zone of the machine for drying the sheet.
- the manufacturing parameters of the sheet C are determined so as to obtain a core having the desired properties.
- the fibres used are long, short or recycled papermaking fibres and also mixtures thereof. It is possible to incorporate other additives providing an additional function, such as disinfectants, cleaning agents or perfumes.
- the starch is coloured so as to check that the starch is correctly distributed on both sides.
- it represents an improvement in aesthetic terms .
- the amount deposited is between 35 and 150 g/m 2 .
- the amount of starch in the sheet is therefore between about 10% and about 70% of the total mass of the sheet after drying.
- the pressed fibrous sheet has a density between 450 kg/m 3 and 650 kg/m 3 .
- the paper sheet was cut into narrow strips or strands that were then wound in a helix around a cylindrical former.
- An adhesive was applied to the overlapping parts of the turns so as to bond them together and form a rigid tube.
- one or two strands are wound.
- the technique for manufacturing the cores is known per se. It is adapted according to the nature of the binder in so far as it is necessary to take into account the rapid disintegrability of the strips by the adhesive used to join the strands together.
- PERFECTACOTE A35 modified water-insoluble starch sold by the company Avebe;
- the lateral compressive strength of the core was measured using the following method.
- the core to be tested was firstly cut into a cylindrical portion bounded by two opposed faces, perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder, said portion having a length of 50 mm in a direction parallel to the axis.
- This cylindrical portion was then positioned between the two metal plates of a testing machine, said plates being mutually parallel and initially separated by a distance slightly greater than the length of the cylindrical portion.
- the cylindrical portion was placed so as to orient the axis of the cylinder along a direction perpendicular to the plane formed by one or other of the plates.
- the resistance presented by the core was measured up to its maximum, i.e. just before the core was irreversibly destroyed.
- the core according to the invention completely meets the requirements therefore.
- Core disintegration test The disintegration of the core A as manufactured above was measured in accordance with the NF Q34-020 standard.
- the principle consisted in subjecting a specimen of the product to stirring in a certain volume of water. The time required for the specimen to disintegrate was measured.
- the specimen of the cardboard control sheet having a weight of 280 g/m 2 only started to fall apart after 30 seconds, and the sheet was converted into pieces after 3 minutes. Pieces with a size greater than 1 cm 2 still remained after 10 minutes. It was also observed that the specimen of the core according to the invention formed from a single strip of 270 g/m 2 weight started to disintegrate in water more rapidly than a similar cardboard core obtained by winding a single cardboard strip having a weight of 280 g/m 2 .
- similar core should be understood to mean a core having approximately the same diameter and the same length as the core of the invention.
- the specimen of the core according to the invention therefore disintegrated more rapidly than a similar cardboard core. This is because the specimen of the core according to the invention disintegrated in 10 to 15 seconds and a fibrous suspension was obtained in a time of less than 60 seconds.
- the turns of the control core specimen opened up after about 60 seconds and the control specimen was in the state of large pieces after 7 minutes. After 10 minutes, pieces greater in size than 1 cm 2 still remained. Moreover, again for comparison, it was observed in the Afnor NF Q34-020 test that the turns of a 400 g/m 2 two- strand cardboard core came unstuck after 60 seconds, the core only starting to disintegrate after 3 minutes. It disintegrated completely after 10 minutes, but cardboard pieces remained.
- the equipment used for this test was a conventional toilet comprising a floor-standing bowl, a flushing mechanism, a water flush tank and a drain line.
- the drain line was a transparent plastic tube enabling the change in the products discharged down the bowl to be displayed. This line had a diameter of 100 millimetres and a length of 20 meters , and was installed with a slope of 2%.
- the method consisted in introducing a series of ten cores into the bowl using the following procedure: a core was thrown into the bowl and then the flush actuated. The volume of this water flush was 5.5 litres. It was then checked whether the core had been discharged from the bowl and its position in the line was recorded. The operation was repeated with the ten cores, each time recording the position of the cores that were still in the line. Finally, complete removal of the core on leaving the line was noted.
- the core according to the invention namely a single- strand 270 g/m 2 core, was tested and passed the down- bowl discharge test and the removal-from-the-line test.
- Cores were produced using process II. The characteristics of the core manufactured were the following: weight of each fibrous ply: 45 g/m2;
- a water-soluble starch was chosen so that it dissolved rapidly at high concentration.
- a cylindrical core was then manufactured from two sheets formed as above.
- the compressive strength of the core in flat compression and in lateral compression was measured. Five measurements were taken each time, and the average of the measurements was calculated.
- This table therefore shows that a core according to the invention containing 50% starch has a lateral strength similar to that of a cardboard core and that, in this case, the flat compressive strength is greater than that of a similar core made of cardboard. Above 65% starch, the sheet starts to become brittle and may no longer be suitable for manufacturing a core.
- the core according to the invention completely meets the requirements therefore.
- the disintegratability of the core as manufactured above was measured in accordance with the NF Q34-020 standard.
- the core according to the invention starts to disintegrate in water more rapidly than a similar cardboard core obtained by winding a single strip of cardboard having a weight of 280 g/m 2 .
- the core according to the invention therefore disintegrates more rapidly than a similar cardboard core, formed from a single strip with a weight of 280 g/m 2 , whether or not there is any stirring.
- the papermaking fibres are coated with starch.
- the starch forms a network throughout the sheet that connects the fibres together in substitution for a part of hydrogen bonds.
- starch absorbs it and dissolves rapidly since the fibres are not bound by the starch they dissociate themselves very quickly. This would explain the rapidity with which the sheet loses its cohesion and disintegrate.
- the disintegration test was made as described above. Compared with the NF Q34-020 standard, the test is carried out on a fibrous sheet or cardboard specimen measuring 8 x 9 cm 2 , while applying a stirring speed of 400 revolutions per minute. The temperature of water is 20oC.
- a rectangular specimen measuring 2.54 cm in width by 13 cm in length is cut in the machine direction.
- a table with a horizontal plane surface, a vertical plane and a straight edge at the intersection between the horizontal plane surface and the vertical plane is used.
- the specimen is laid flat on the table perpendicular to the edge. A portion of the specimen (10 cm) extends beyond the edge.
- the specimen makes an angle of 0 with the plane.
- the specimen is wetted using a motorized burette, the end-piece of which is placed 1 cm above the test piece: 3 ml of water supplied in 6 s.
- the water is deposited at the centre of the test piece above the edge, at the point where the specimen is going to make an angle with the horizontal plane.
- the specimen On being wetted, the specimen is folded around the edge: the bend angle relative to the horizontal plane is recorded 6 seconds after the water has been delivered.
- the loss of wet strength of a specimen is determined by establishing the ratio of the lateral compressive strength in the wet state to that in the dry state.
- a specimen measuring 15 mm in width by 152.4 mm in length is cut in the machine direction.
- the specimen is fixed to a ring-shaped support (as described in the standard ISO 12192:2002), placed between two plates, and then subjected to a compressive force at a rate of 10 mm/min. The maximum resistance force is recorded.
- the specimen fixed in the support is dipped in water during a time less than 2 seconds.
- the measurement is carried out immediately after the dipping.
- the disintegration time in water measured in accordance with the NF Q34-020 standard applied to a specimen of the sheet of 9 x 8 cm 2 , is less than 50 seconds, preferably less than 35 seconds, and more particularly less than 15 seconds,
- a fibrous sheet having a basis weight of between 20 and 1000 g/m2 that disintegrates in water, comprising 10% to 70% starch on the basis of the total weight of the dry fibrous sheet,
- the disintegration time in water measured in accordance with the NF Q34-020 standard applied to a specimen of the sheet of 9 x 8 cm 2 , is less than 50 seconds, preferably less than 35 seconds and more particularly less than
- the disintegration time in water measured in accordance with the NF Q34-020 standard applied to a specimen of the sheet of 9 x 8 cm 2 , is less than 50 seconds, preferably less than
