THE ROLE OF FIBERS SURFACE IN DEVELOPMENT OF PAPERMAKING PROPERTIES OF TECHNICAL PULP IN THE REFINING PROCESS
Abstract
The aim of this work was to determine the relationship between the values of the fiber specific surface and papermaking properties of the pulp that are changing in the refining process. Quality data on the status and quantitative data on the value of the fibers specific surface for softwood and hardwood kraft pulp with different lignin content and different degree of refining were obtained. When preparing samples was used technology of cryofixation and freeze-drying the wet laboratory samples. The SEM-images of the cellulose fibers surface in the state such as for the sheet forming, obtained on scanning electron microscope ZEISS "SIGMA VP". The SEM-images shows just noticeable difference in development of the fibers surface in the beating process. This is manifested in an increase in the number of microfibrils on the fiber surface. Quantitative data were obtained on the automatic analyzer of the specific surface magnitude ASAP.
A visually apparent increase of the surface when beating technical cellulose confirmed quantitatively. The value of the specific surface area increased from 2 m2/g for cellulose after the dispergation into pulp of up to 4...6 m2/g after refining up to 60 °SR. Removal of lignin from cellulose promotes more intensive development of the surface during refining.
For different kinds of pulp, similar dependences of physical-mechanical properties (interfiber bonding forces, bulk density, modulus of elasticity) of laboratory samples and specific surface data, which change during refining, are established.
The main influence on the change in the structural-dimensional and elastic properties of paper during refining is exerted by an increase in the content of microfibrils on the outer surface of the fibers. The tightness of the correlation and the nature of the observed dependence depends on the wood species from which the cellulose is derived, on the lignin content of the samples, and on the drying method. For softwood pulp, the tightness of the relationship is higher than for hardwood pulp.
