Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of corrugated paper, and in particular to ultra-thin high-strength corrugated paper and a production process thereof. Background Art
[0002] Waste paper, also known as secondary fiber, is used as a raw material for papermaking. The paper industry's extensive recycling of waste paper not only reduces waste generation and potential environmental harm, but also generates economic benefits through the recycling of waste paper resources, protecting the ecological environment and conserving resources at the source.
[0003] Corrugated boxes are made of corrugated cardboard. Due to their multi-layer structure and good strength, they are widely used in packaging and transportation. During the loading process of goods, the corrugated paper needs to be folded multiple times to form a specific shape. However, due to the thickness of existing corrugated paper, the flexibility and foldability of the corrugated paper are poor during the folding process, which reduces its application in packaging performance.
[0004] With the rapid increase in demand for US waste in the domestic market, the US waste market is facing a supply shortage and rising prices, leading to a corresponding surge in paper prices. Furthermore, the government has further strengthened its control standards for imported waste, leading to a gradual decrease in direct imports. However, papermaking companies using domestic waste face a decline in quality due to the repeated recycling of raw materials. The high-strength corrugated paper produced from this raw material can only be considered medium-to-low-strength corrugated paper. For example, Chinese patent CN108215314A describes a low-cost corrugated cardboard production process, which includes the following steps: shredding waste paper, beating, mixing, applying the pulp to the screen, thermally gluing the paper, separating and creasing, slotting, printing, and joining. Through the synergistic effects of various raw materials and processing steps, the resulting corrugated cardboard box exhibits high structural strength and minimizes packaging space. Furthermore, due to the reduced wall thickness of each individual sheet of corrugated paper, the volume of the corrugated cardboard box itself is also reduced, saving storage and transportation costs. Although this patent uses waste paper, the corrugated base paper prepared mostly uses short fibers, which causes the strength of the corrugated paper to decrease during the thickness reduction process, and the thickness reduction is limited. In addition, this patent uses a glue coating machine for gluing. Although the glue is not specified in detail, conventional sizing agents are usually used. Conventional sizing agents have limited improvement on the strength of paper, and conventional sizing agents have limited ability to resist content and external extrusion.
[0005] Chinese patent CN109537349A discloses a process for producing low-weight, high-strength corrugated paperboard. The process uses a pulping mixture of 2-4 parts by weight of silica, 1-3 parts by weight of EPDM rubber, 2-5 parts by weight of vinyl acetate, and 10-15 parts by weight of polyethylene fiber. This effectively improves the strength of the corrugated paperboard while enhancing its durability and longevity, while ensuring that it does not deform and can withstand greater impact pressure. While this patent increases the impact pressure of the corrugated paper to a certain extent, it only improves its surface strength to a limited extent. Furthermore, the patent requires the addition of wheat straw and bamboo stalks with a high long-fiber content, which limits the utilization of waste cardboard. The resulting corrugated paper still fails to meet the requirements of being thin and high-strength. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To this end, the present invention provides an ultra-thin high-strength corrugated paper and a production process thereof to solve the problems in the prior art.
[0007] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0008] According to one aspect of the present invention, a production process for ultra-thin high-strength corrugated paper is provided, the process comprising:
[0009] Step 1: Mix different types of waste paper raw materials and hydraulically pulp them to obtain raw waste paper pulp with a concentration of 2.5-2.8%;
[0010] Step 2: After high-concentration sand removal, coarse screening, and low-concentration sand removal, the original waste paper pulp enters a grading screen to separate the fibers in the waste paper pulp into long fibers and short fibers;
[0011] Step 3: mixing the long fiber pulp and the short fiber pulp in proportion, and performing papermaking and surface sizing treatment to obtain ultra-thin high-strength corrugated paper;
[0012] The papermaking process includes adding polydimethyldiallyl ammonium chloride to the fiber slurry in the papermaking pool for modification. In the modification process, the amount of polydimethyldiallyl ammonium chloride is 1 to 3 parts based on 100 parts of the dry weight of the fiber.
[0013] In the surface sizing process, a mixed reagent of starch glue, solid surface sizing agent, styrene acrylic surface sizing agent, 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride and alkenyl succinic anhydride is used as a surface sizing agent for surface sizing treatment; in the surface sizing process, based on the amount of unsized paper being 1 ton, the amount of starch glue is 40-45 kg, the amount of solid sizing agent is 8-10 kg, the amount of styrene acrylic surface sizing agent is 2-3 kg, the amount of 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride is 0.3-1 kg, and the amount of alkenyl succinic anhydride is 0.5-1.5 kg.
[0014] Furthermore, in step 1, the waste paper raw material includes 45-55wt% of a mixture of industrial carton waste paper, special grade waste paper, and mixed shopping mall waste paper, 25-30wt% of cardboard from pit card factories, 10-15wt% of industrial paper edge waste paper, and 5-15wt% of dry pulp bags.
[0015] Furthermore, in step 2, the long fibers are subjected to low-consistency sand removal, fine screening using a screen drum with a gap of 0.15-0.18 mm, and concentration treatment, and then refined and formed by controlling the SR beating degree to 39-41° to obtain long fiber pulp, which is then conveyed to the long fiber pulping pool; the short fibers are concentrated to obtain short fiber pulp, which is then conveyed to the short fiber pulping pool. Generally speaking, long fibers are those greater than 1.8 mm, and short fibers are those less than or equal to 1.8 mm. In the present invention, long fibers greater than 2.5 mm refer to long fibers greater than 2.5 mm accounting for more than 90%.
[0016] Furthermore, the long fiber pulp and the short fiber pulp in the papermaking tank are mixed in a ratio of (3-7): (7-3) to form paper pulp, and polydimethyldiallylammonium chloride is added for modification. The temperature of the papermaking tank is less than 45°C to reduce the risk of charge reversal.
[0017] Furthermore, in the step three, the paper is mechanically dehydrated after papermaking and dried before sizing to obtain unsized paper.
[0018] Furthermore, the pressure of the mechanical dehydration is 900-1100 KN / m.
[0019] Furthermore, the drying process before gluing includes drying at a temperature of 40-90° C. until the paper has a dryness of 90-92%, and the drying process after gluing includes drying at a temperature of 60-90° C. until the paper has a dryness of 85-92%. In the present invention, the drying temperature and paper dryness must be strictly controlled before and after gluing. Too high or too low a temperature will easily reduce the strength and other properties of the corrugated base paper.
[0020] Furthermore, the preparation process of the surface sizing agent is: firstly, 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride and starch glue are mixed and modified, and then a solid sizing agent, a styrene acrylic surface sizing agent and alkenyl succinic anhydride are added and mixed evenly to obtain the surface sizing agent.
[0021] The starch glue is first modified with 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride, so that 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride is grafted onto starch to increase the charge density; the solid surface sizing agent and the styrene acrylic surface sizing agent can further enhance water resistance and improve surface strength, and alkenyl succinic anhydride (ASA) can be instantaneously cured to further enhance water resistance.
[0022] As an example, it is preferred to first mix 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride with starch glue for modification and react at 60°C for 30 minutes, and then add alkenyl succinic anhydride, styrene acrylic emulsion and solid surface sizing agent in sequence.
[0023] Furthermore, the concentration of the starch glue is 8-12 wt% and the viscosity is 30-40 mPa.s.
[0024] According to another aspect of the present invention, an ultra-thin high-strength corrugated paper prepared by the above production process is provided, characterized in that the basis weight of the corrugated paper is 80-110 g / m 2 As an example, the preferred corrugated base paper weight is 80-90g / m 2 The thickness is preferably 0.12-0.18 mm.
[0025] The present invention has the following advantages:
[0026] The present invention uses different types of waste paper for mixing, covering the main types of packaging waste paper. Compared with the traditional process that only relies on a single waste paper (such as OCC) or requires additional foreign waste, the present invention makes full use of domestic recycled waste paper resources through a multi-waste paper ratio, reduces dependence on foreign waste (such as US waste), and complies with resource recycling policies. The present invention adds dry pulp bags, which are rich in long fibers (such as unbleached chemical pulp fibers), which can make up for the problem of short and broken fibers caused by multiple recycling of other waste papers (such as industrial carton waste paper and paper edge waste paper), improve the overall fiber length and strength of the raw materials, and provide a high-quality foundation for the subsequent preparation of long fiber pulp.
[0027] The present invention ensures a high-strength skeleton of the fluted paper by introducing a dry pulping bag and optimizing the ratio of various raw materials.
[0028] The present invention uses a double modification method of pulp inside and surface to significantly improve the fiber strength and waterproof performance of ultra-thin corrugated paper while ensuring that the paper is thin enough.
[0029] The present invention adds polydimethyldiallyl ammonium chloride to the fiber slurry to neutralize anionic impurities (such as hemicellulose), enhance the bonding force between fibers and improve the fiber dispersibility, and at the same time provide adsorption sites for the subsequent sizing agent (the surface is positively charged and is more likely to adsorb negatively charged alkenyl succinic anhydride); in the subsequent surface sizing agent, starch glue is used as a film-forming matrix, and a styrene acrylic surface sizing agent and starch glue are used to form a "fiber-starch-styrene acrylic surface sizing agent" membrane structure to enhance water resistance. The solid sizing agent and polydimethyldiallyl ammonium chloride form a charge relay to enhance the retention rate of fine fibers and strengthen the fiber network. Alkenyl succinic anhydride and the styrene acrylic surface sizing agent are cross-linked to form a dense film layer, thereby further enhancing the ring crush strength. The 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride in the surface sizing further strengthens the cationic network, promotes the directional arrangement of alkenyl succinic anhydride and the styrene acrylic surface sizing agent on the fiber surface, and reacts with the cellulose hydroxyl group to form an ether bond to enhance water resistance.
[0030] In the process of preparing the surface sizing agent of the present invention, 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride and starch glue are first mixed and modified, and then a solid sizing agent, a styrene acrylic surface sizing agent, and alkenyl succinic anhydride are added and mixed evenly. This can effectively prevent flocculation caused by charge reversal on the fiber surface, thereby avoiding a significant reduction in the effect of the surface sizing agent.

[0108] As shown in Tables 1 and 2, while the performance of Examples 2 and 3 is within the specified range, the best synergy between long and short fibers is achieved at a 10% dry pulp bale ratio. When the dry pulp bale ratio is reduced or increased, insufficient or excessive long fibers will result in increased basis weight and thickness, and a slight decrease in ring pressure. By individually controlling the long and short fiber ratio (Examples 4-7), it was found that the closer the ratio is to 1:1, the better the performance indicators are, with the best effect being achieved at a 1:1 long and short fiber ratio.
[0109] Without the addition of a wet-end enhancer (Comparative Example 1), the fiber bonding force is reduced, the network structure is loose, and the tightness decreases. Without a surface epoxy modifier (Comparative Example 2), the film voids increase and the water absorption increases. Without ASA (Comparative Example 4), the water resistance collapses and the water absorption is the highest. Direct blending of the sizing agent (Comparative Example 7) causes charge reversal, sizing flocculation, and reduced tempering length. Without the addition of a dry pulp bag (Comparative Example 6), relying solely on the long fibers in the waste paper, the long fibers are insufficient in length, the long and short fibers are out of balance, the basis weight increases, and the tightness decreases. Without the addition of a styrene acrylic surface sizing agent (Comparative Example 3), the "fiber-starch-styrene acrylic" composite film is destroyed, the ring pressure index decreases, the water absorption increases, and the breaking length decreases. The amount of polydimethyldiallylammonium chloride and the amount of sizing agent used in Comparative Example 5 are far greater than those in Example 1. However, excessive positive charge will reverse the potential on the fiber surface, electrostatic repulsion between fibers, destroy the uniformity of the paper sheet, and reduce the ring pressure index; excessive ASA will cause the precipitate to block the capillaries, increase local water absorption, and cause local collapse of the ring pressure; excessive or reduced amounts of any additives will destroy the precise coordination of "charge relay-crosslinking film formation", resulting in a complete collapse of performance.
