Benefits of technology

[0012]The paper containing citrus peel fiber of the invention is excellent in tensile strength, tear strength, bursting strength and folding endurance, and has superior preservability with pH close to neutrality. The paper containing citrus peel fiber of the invention also has a yellowish and / or reddish aesthetic color, excellent tactile sensation and high vapor transmission, and thus is adequate to be used as high grade wall paper and window paper. Furthermore, since the paper containing citrus peel fiber of the invention is manufactured by using by-products created in the course of processing citruses, it is possible to reduce manufacturing costs as well as decrease waste, thereby preventing pollution.

Problems solved by technology

However, Korean paper has a long lifetime and remains highly hygroscopic (i.e., has high vapor transmission).
However, the usage of Korean paper is gradually decreasing, and to date, being applied to restricted fields such as industrial arts and interiors.
However, the citrus peel power does not have excellent fibrous connection with mulberry fiber, and thus Korean paper containing the citrus peels are thicker and more bulky but have a lower density with respect to common Korean paper manufactured by inputting an adhesive material in the same amount.

Manufacturing of Mandarin Peel Paper 1

[0015]200 g of dried mandarin orange peels (also referred to as “mandarin peels”) were placed into a 5% sodium hydroxide solution, and cooked at 100° C. for 30 minutes to soak out cellulose oil. The cooked peels were cleaned with water three times, placed into a Holland beater together with 1.8 kg of water, and beaten for 20 minutes, thereby producing fiber of mandarin peel or mandarin peel fiber.

[0016]10 kg of mulberry fiber (90 wt % moisture) prepared by cooking mulberry wood, 2 kg of the mandarin peel fiber prepared as above and 45 g of PEO were mixed and stirred. The stirred mixture was placed into a paper-making tank and formed into a sheet of paper by a twin-wire sheet former. The paper was dewatered and compressed in a dehydrator to have a uniform basis weight. The compressed and half-dried paper (40 wt % moisture) was swept with a drying brush, attached in a stack-by-stack manner, and dried in a hot plate dryer, thereby producing Mandari...

Manufacturing of Mandarin Peel Paper 2

[0017]Mandarin peel paper 2 was manufactured in the same process as in Example 1 except that 10 kg of the mulberry fiber prepared by beating mulberry wood, 4 kg of the mandarin peel fiber and 45 g of PEO were mixed.

example 3

Manufacturing of Lemon Peel Paper 1

[0018]Lemon peel paper 1 was manufactured in the same process as in Example 1 except that mandarin oranges were substituted by lemons.

Abstract

A paper containing citrus peel fiber contains 20 to 60 weight parts of citrus peel fiber with respect to 100 weight parts of paper mulberry fiber. The citrus peel fiber is a peel fiber of one selected from the group consisting of mandarin orange, lemon, orange, Kiyomi and Dekopon. The paper containing citrus peel fiber is excellent in tensile strength, tear strength, bursting strength and folding endurance, and has superior preservability with pH close to neutrality. The paper containing citrus peel fiber of the invention also has a yellowish and / or reddish aesthetic color, excellent tactile sensation and high vapor transmission, and thus is adequate to be used as high grade wall paper and window paper. Furthermore, since the paper containing citrus peel fiber of the invention is manufactured by using by-products created in the course of processing citruses, it is possible to reduce manufacturing costs as well as decrease waste, thereby preventing pollution.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a paper containing citrus peel fiber, and more particularly, to a paper containing peel fiber of a citrus such as mandarin orange, lemons, orange, Kiyomi and Dekopon (Shiranuhi) together with mulberry fiber.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Traditional Korean paper, also referred to as “Hanji,” is manufactured by processing bast fiber, which is obtained from peels of paper mulberry trees or mulberry trees, and has high texture strength and excellent fibrous connection since the length of the fiber is significantly longer than those of common pulps. Common paper is hydrolyzed as time passes due to its strong acidity of about pH 4 to pH 5.5, and thus becomes less conservable. However, Korean paper has a long lifetime and remains highly hygroscopic (i.e., has high vapor transmission). In addition, Korean paper is evaluated as a high grade paper due to texture properties with natural beauty. However, the usage of Korean paper is gradually decreasi...
