Improvement and analysis of paper properties by adding modified polysaccharidesNguyen, Hoang Chung 21 February 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Polysaccharides are now popularly used in paper technology since they are able to improve mechanical properties of the paper. Xylan and pectin are two natural polymers that have a wide range of applications nowadays. These two polysaccharides can be used in their native forms as well as derivatives. In this study, xylan and pectin were modified to obtain cationic derivatives before adding into the paper for enhancement.
The work was motivated by the fact that xylan and pectin share the same negative surface properties as cellulose. This leads to a slight repulsion effect between them once they are close. Their cationic derivatives, therefore, are believed to strengthen the paper due to electrostatic interactions between two oppositely charged objects beside hydrogen bonds.
To fulfil the purposes, oat spelt xylan and apple pectin were chemically modified using different modification methods, including oxidation, amidation, and a combination of these two methods. A quantitative method to determine the adsorbed amount and relative retention capacity of xylan onto paper using high performance liquid chromatography was also developed.
The results show that oat spelt and apple pectin, as well as their modified derivatives, can improve the paper mechanical properties. The oat spelt xylan significantly enhances the tensile strength, however, this contribution has a saturation level in correlation with the relative retention capacity of the xylan onto cellulose. The best retention capacity is achieved when 5% of xylan is added. This finding provides a practical approach to the application of xylan as a paper additive in consideration of economic issues.
Although the application of apple pectin and its amidated derivatives in paper is rather rare, some interesting points have been discovered in this work. Among the apple pectin samples used, only the ones with low degree of esterification give a slight enhancement in tensile index at 5% dosage. The results also suggest that the dosage of the pectin added into the paper should not exceed 5% due to its viscous property at high concentrations.

Previous issue date: 2018-02-27 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) / O presente estudo tem por objetivo elucidar sobre a correlação entre a viscosidade e as propriedades mecânicas da polpa. O material utilizado foi uma amostra de Eucalyptus grandis x Eucalyptus urophylla. Os cavacos foram submetidos a cozimentos com tempos de polpação de 90 e 120 minutos. Para as polpas produzidas com tempo de 90 minutos, realizou-se a deslignificação com oxigênio com temperatura de 95°C e para as polpas produzidas com o tempo de 120 minutos, a temperatura do estágio de deslignificação com oxigênio foi de 115°C, objetivando uma maior diferença de viscosidade entre as amostras. Ambas as polpas foram branqueadas a partir das sequências ECF OD(E+P)DD, OAHTD(E+P)DP e OD(E+P)(PO). Posteriormente as polpas foram refinadas em moinho PFI e avaliadas quanto ao índice de rasgo, tração e arrebentamento, segundo as normas da TAPPI (Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry). Os resultados indicam que o aumento do tempo de cozimento em 30 minutos e aumento da temperatura da deslignificação com oxigênio de 95°C para 115°C afetam significativamente a viscosidade da polpa. O refino foi afetado pela diminuição da viscosidade das sequências produzidas com deslignificação com oxigênio à temperatura de 115°C. O índice de rasgo apresentou decréscimo quanto menor a viscosidade da polpa em todas as sequências de branqueamento deste estudo. Os índices de tração e arrebentamento apresentaram decréscimo de acordo com a diminuição da viscosidade em uma mesma sequência, entretanto, quando a comparação foi feita entre diferentes sequências de branqueamento, não houve relação entre os índices de tração e de arrebentamento com a viscosidade da polpa. / This study aims to elucidate the correlation between the viscosity and the mechanical properties of the pulp. The material used was a sample of Eucalyptus grandisx Eucalyptus urophylla. The chips were cooked with cooking times of 90 and 120 minutes. For the pulps produced in 90 minutes, the delignification with oxygen at temperature of 95ºC was performed and for the pulps produced in 120 minutes, the temperature of the oxygen delignification stage was 115ºC, aiming a greater difference of viscosity between the samples. Both pulps were bleached from the sequences ECF OD(E+P)DD, OD(E+P)(PO) and OAHTD(E+P)DP. Later, the pulps were refined in PFI mill and assessed for the tear, tensile and burst indexes, according to the TAPPI (Technical Association of the Pulp and Paper Industry) standards. The results indicate that the increase of cooking time in 30 minutes and the increase of temperature in oxygen delignification from 95°C to 115°C affect significantly the pulp viscosity. The refining was affected by the viscosity reduction of the sequences produced with delignification with oxygen at temperature of 115ºC. Tear index decreased as the pulp viscosity was lower, in all the bleaching sequences. Tensile and burst indexes presented decrease with the decrease of the viscosity in the same sequence, however, when comparing different bleaching sequences, there was no relation between the tensile and burst indexes with the pulp viscosity.
