Stickies Control with Pectinase for Improving Behavior of Cationic Polymers in a Mixture of Chemithermo- mechanical Pulp and Deinked Pulp

چکیده
In this work, a pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) was used as the model substance for secondary stickies. The dissolved and colloidal substances (DCS) prepared from bleached chemithermomechanical pulp (BCTMP) and the effects of pectinase treatment on the stickies deposition were evaluated. The results showed that the addition of DCS lowered the efficiency of cationic polymers and aggravated the deposition of stickies. As a major component of anionic DCS, polygalacturonic acids can be effectively degraded during pectinase treatment. Therefore, the efficiency of cationic polymers improved, and subsequently they were able to fix the destabilized sticky particles on the fibers, which led to the decrease of stickies deposition. However, the pectinase treatment of DCS insignificantly affected stickies deposition in absence of cationic polymers when the stickies deposition was caused by calcium ions.

Control of Sticky Contaminants with Cationic Talc in Deinked Pulp
In this study a cationic talc was applied to deinked pulp for control of sticky contaminants. Effects of the cationic talc on stickies and dissolved and colloid substances were investigated and compared with those of a conventional talc. Characteristics of wet-end chemistry were examined for the pulp with addition of both kinds of talc samples. Furthermore, influences on paper properties were a...

Recycled fiber use introduces fines, fillers, microbiological contaminants and stickies contaminants to the papermaking system. Deinking processes are designed to remove or control these contaminants. Important considerations in selecting a deinking processes are the type of wastepaper to be deinked and the desired quality of the deinked pulp. These will determine the extent to which contaminan...
متن کاملTime Variations of Macrostickies and Extractable Stickies Concentrations in Deinking
The stickies content, both macrostickies and stickies extractable in a solvent, was determined for samples taken at short time intervals from deinking lines, producing deinked pulp for newsprint production. The study was carried out at three mills on different continents, with each having a different source of recycled paper as raw material. The short-term variations in extractable stickies in ...

Mixtures of stickies-containing and stickies-free pulps were investigated for their deposition potential in an attempt to better understand the interactions of dissolved and colloidal material (DCM) when mixing two different pulps. The filtered pulp mixtures were tested in a deposition apparatus which measures both the dynamic fluid as well as impact deposition by an established optical scannin...
