Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fibre product that contains pulp or wood fibre, and to the manufacturing method of this product, wherein filler particles are attached between the pulp fibres or wood fibres as well as to fibrils, after which paper or board is produced from the fibre pulp. Description of prior art
  • the fillers or pigments that are used in the manufacture of paper and board have an average particle size of less than 5 um and a light colour.
  • the most typical fillers include kaolins, talcs, ground calcium carbonate, and precipitated calcium carbonate.
  • special pigments such as precipitated aluminium silicates, satin white, and titanium dioxide. Drawing an exact line between fillers and coating pigments is difficult; however, roughly speaking, fillers have a larger size than the pigments that are used in coating. From the point of view of a maximum light scattering, an optimal particle size for the most common fillers and coating pigments would be 0.4-0.5 ⁇ .
  • the average particle size of the coating pigments is 0.5-1 ⁇ and that of the fillers 1.5-4 ⁇ .
  • the most common clay mineral that is used as filler in the manufacture of paper and board is kaolin that mainly consists of kaolinite.
  • the kaolin mineral has a two-layer, laminar structure that comprises a tetrahedral layer of silicon dioxide and an octahedral layer of aluminium oxide. The layers are interconnected by oxygen atoms. Because of the silanol groups of the surface of kaolin, the surfaces of the kaolin mineral are negatively charged and its edges are positively charged, when suspended in water. Kaolin can be
  • the most common commercial kaolin grades include water- washed, delaminated, calcined, and chemically structured kaolins.
  • the water- washed grade often contains several kaolin sheets that are attached to each other at their surfaces.
  • kaolin surfaces are separated by grinding them into smaller groups and single kaolin sheets.
  • the calcined kaolins are made by allowing kaolin sheets, which have a conveniently small particle size distribution, to partly melt to each other at a temperature of about 1000 °C.
  • metakaolin Kaolin crystals that are heated at a temperature of about 500-800 °C are called metakaolin.
  • metakaolin and calcined kaolin are particularly visible as an improvement in brightness and opacity compared with water-washed and delaminated kaolins. This is based on the fact that, between the kaolin sheets in the calcined kaolin, there are interfaces of air and kaolin which are effective in scattering light.
  • the pores formed in the structure of the structured kaolins further help in the setting of ink.
  • the manufacture of chemically structured kaolins is based on the formation of the same interfaces, but in this case, the interfaces can be chemically bound to each other - not by means of high temperatures.
  • the light scattering efficiency of the chemically structured kaolins is normally between that of the delaminated and calcined kaolins.
  • the various fillers also bind less water than fibres do, contributing to the financial advantage of their use due to the accelerated dewatering.
  • the lower water retention capacity is visible as a quicker dewatering and, thus, lower energy costs in drying, when the filler is used.
  • the fillers and fibres have an anionic charge. Therefore, to improve the filler retention, a cationic charge in the form of ions or polymers should generally be supplied to the pulp to bind the filler to the fibre network.
  • the filler contents are about 30%, calculated from dry fibre.
  • the retention can be divided into a mechanical and chemical one, of which the chemical retention definitely has more significance.
  • the mechanical retention has more meaning for boards of a high basis weight.
  • the decrease in strength and stiffness of the paper or board product when replacing the fibre with filler is mainly caused by the fact that the fillers weaken the formation of hydrogen bonds between the fibres, since the surfaces of the fillers do not form hydrogen bonds. At present, the filler is added directly to the pulp.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a new paper or board product that has good strength and high opacity.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a new paper or board product that contains, as filler, granules that attach between the fibres and carbonates that attach to the fibrils.
  • the object of the present invention is to utilize an aqueous, carbonate-bearing salt composit ion to suspend structured kaolin in the manufacture of the paper and board products. In this way, as quick as possible dewatering and high wire retention in the wire section and the improvement of specific quality properties of paper and board are ensured.
  • kaolin sheets among others, latexes can be used as binders, by means of which the kaolin sheets and stacks can be attached to each other to form granules or agglomerates from the kaolin slurry by means of a mixing technique or spray drying.
  • the purpose is to provide structured kaolin with an average particle size of over 5 micrometres.
  • the structured kaolin thus dried can then be converted into calcined kaolin or metakaolin by heating it in a furnace.
  • an improvement is achieved by using the structured kaolin that is suspended in the aqueous solution, according to the invention, whereby quicker dewatering and higher retention are utilized in the wire section.
  • carbonate filler is precipitated to the fibre structure by means of an increase in the pH, pressure or temperature, preferably at the tail of the wire section and/or after the press section.
  • the goal is to introduce a desired amount and distribution of precipitated carbonate filler into the lumen and fibrils of the fibre structure, whereby the effect of structured kaolin that weakens the stiffness can be prevented.
  • the carbonate filler thus created increases the brightness, opacity, and printability that are achieved by using structured kaolin alone.
  • the carbonate filler thus created would be contained in the fibrils of the fibres, increasing the stiffness, among others, and the structured kaolin would be contained in the holes of the fibre network, whereby the weakening of the strength and stiffness of the fibre network caused by the prevention of the formation of hydrogen bonds between the fibres of the filler would be lesser than when using fillers or pigments with an average particle size of less than 5 micrometres.
  • the present invention thus relates to a fibre product that contains pulp fibre or wood fibre, the product preferably being paper or board, and to the manufacturing method of this product, wherein filler particles are attached between the pulp or wood fibres and to the fibrils, after which the said paper or board is produced from the pulp.
  • the fibre product according to the present invention is characterized by what is stated in the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the manufacturing method of the fibre product according to the invention is, in turn, characterized by what is stated in the characterizing part of claim 10.
  • the present invention is multifunctional and it improves various properties: the quality properties of paper and board and the economic activity of the manufacturing process.
  • the invention makes it possible, among others, to improve the brightness, opacity, and printability; at the same time, the dewatering can be accelerated and the retention improved in the wire section.
  • An additional advantage of the use of kaolin also comprises the effect of further improving the stiffness, opacity, brightness, and printability that are given to the fibre structure by the precipitated carbonate filler. At the same time, part of the fibre of the end product is now replaced with the filler without weakening the strength properties.

  • This invention proves that when the aqueous salt composition is used in the manufacture of structured kaolin slurry and when the pH of the paper or board pulp that is diluted with this composition is increased with an alkali and/or the temperature is increased, possibly simultaneously with increasing the solid matter content of the pulp, a carbonate filler can be precipitated to the paper or board structure.
