[0221] <Method for Producing Pulp Product>

[0222] The pulp composition in the present disclosure can be obtained by treating a pulp substrate with a water-repellent agent containing a polyol-modified product.

[0223] If necessary, the obtained pulp composition can be subjected to treatment steps such as drying, heating, and shaping to obtain a pulp product.

[0224] The method for manufacturing a pulp product in the present disclosure may include a step of treating a pulp substrate with a water-repellent agent (a polyol-modified product addition step). The pulp substrate is treated with a water-repellent agent to obtain a pulp composition. A pulp composition may be manufactured by a polyol-modified product addition step of adding a polyol-modified product to the pulp substrate and a sizing agent addition step of adding a sizing agent to the pulp substrate. The polyol-modified product addition step and the sizing agent addition step may be performed separately or simultaneously. If necessary, the obtained pulp composition can be subjected to treatment steps such as drying, heating, and shaping to obtain a pulp product.

[0225] Regarding the type and composition of the pulp substrate and the water-repellent agent, the description of the above-mentioned "pulp composition" is incorporated by reference. The water-repellent agent of the present disclosure can be applied to the substrate by a conventionally known method as a treatment agent (especially a surface treatment agent). As a treatment method, the water-repellent agent in the present disclosure can be dispersed and diluted in an organic solvent or water if necessary, and attached to the inside and / or surface of the pulp substrate by a known method such as dip coating, spray coating, or foam coating, and then dried. After drying, a pulp product with the solid component in the water-repellent agent attached is obtained. Also, if necessary, it may be applied together with a suitable cross-linking agent and cured. The concentration of the water-repellent agent in the treatment agent in contact with the pulp substrate may be appropriately changed depending on the application, but may be 0.01 to 10% by weight, for example, 0.05 to 5% by weight.

[0226] The sizing agent in the present disclosure can be applied to a pulp substrate by a conventionally known method as a treating agent (especially a surface treating agent). As a treating method, the sizing agent in the present disclosure can be dispersed and diluted in an organic solvent or water if necessary, and then adhered to the inside and / or surface of the pulp substrate by a known method such as dip coating, spray coating, foam coating, etc., and dried. The dilution ratio may be appropriately changed depending on the concentration and use of the sizing agent, but may be 3 to 2000 times, for example, 10 to 100 times. After drying, a pulp product with the solid component of the sizing agent adhered thereto is obtained. Further, if necessary, it may be applied together with a suitable crosslinking agent and cured.

[0227] The sizing agent can be applied to the pulp substrate by any of the methods known for treating the pulp substrate with a liquid. The pulp substrate may be immersed in the sizing agent, the pulp substrate and the sizing agent may be mixed, or a solution may be adhered or sprayed onto the pulp substrate. The treated pulp substrate is preferably dried and cured by heating in order to exhibit liquid repellency. The heating temperature may be, for example, 100°C to 200°C, 100°C to 170°C, or 100°C to 120°C. In the present disclosure, the heating time may be 5 seconds to 60 minutes, for example, 30 seconds to 3 minutes.

[0228] As a method for treating a pulp substrate, an internal addition treatment method in which a sizing agent is added to pulp before papermaking (for example, pulp slurry), or an external addition treatment method in which a sizing agent is applied to pulp after papermaking (for example, a pulp product) can be used. Examples of the internal addition treatment method include mixing, dipping, etc., and may include a step of adding a sizing agent to the pulp slurry and stirring and mixing. Examples of the external addition treatment method include spraying, coating, dipping treatment, foam coating, etc., and specifically include a pond type two-roll size press, a gate roll type, and a rod metering size press. The treatment may be an external addition treatment or an internal addition treatment. For example, when the pulp substrate is paper, it may be coated on the paper, or a solution may be adhered or sprayed on the paper, or it may be treated by mixing with the pulp slurry before papermaking. When the pulp substrate is a fiber material, examples of the treatment method include padding treatment, dipping treatment, spraying treatment, and coating treatment. Examples of the padding treatment include a method using a padding device described on pages 396 to 397 of the Fiber Dyeing Process Dictionary (published in 1963 by Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun Co., Ltd.) and pages 256 to 260 of Color Dyeing Chemistry III (published in 1975 by Jitsugyo Publishing Co., Ltd.). Examples of the coating treatment include a method using a coating machine described on pages 473 to 477 of the General Catalog of Dyeing and Finishing Equipment (published in 1981 by Sen’i Sha). Examples of the dipping treatment include a method using a batch dyeing machine described on pages 196 to 247 of the General Catalog of Dyeing and Finishing Equipment (published in 1981 by Sen’i Sha), and a liquid flow dyeing machine, an air flow dyeing machine, a drum dyeing machine, a winch dyeing machine, a washer dyeing machine, a cheese dyeing machine, etc. can be used. Examples of the spraying treatment include an air spray in which a treatment liquid is atomized with compressed air and sprayed, and a method using an air spray of a hydraulic atomization method.

[0229] The treatment method may be an internal addition treatment in which a sizing agent is added to the pulp slurry before papermaking. The method for manufacturing a pulp product including the internal addition treatment includes a step of adding a sizing agent to the pulp slurry and stirring and mixing it, and a step of subjecting the pulp composition prepared in this step to suction dewatering through a reticular body having a predetermined shape to deposit the pulp composition to form an intermediate pulp molded product, and a step of obtaining a pulp molded product by molding and drying the intermediate pulp molded product with a heated mold may include one or more of these steps. After the treatment, after simple drying at room temperature or high temperature, optionally, heat treatment may be performed depending on the properties of the pulp. The temperature of the heat treatment may be 150 °C or higher, 180 °C or higher, or 210 °C or higher, and may also be 300 °C or lower, 250 °C or lower, or 200 °C or lower, particularly 80 °C to 180 °C. By performing heat treatment within such a temperature range, excellent oil resistance, water resistance, etc. can be exhibited. An external addition treatment may be performed on the internally added pulp base material, treated with a sizing agent, and a further polyol modifier and / or a further paper strengthening agent may be adhered to the surface. Examples of the further polyol modifier and the further paper strengthening agent are as described above, but are not limited thereto.

[0230] The treatment method may be an external addition treatment in which a sizing agent is applied to the pulp base material after papermaking. The size press of the external addition treatment can also be classified as follows according to the coating method. One coating method is to supply a coating liquid (sizing liquid) to a nip portion formed by passing paper between two rubber rolls to create a coating liquid reservoir called a pond, and to apply the sizing liquid to both sides of the paper by passing the paper through this coating liquid reservoir. This is a so-called pond-type two-roll size press. The other coating methods are a gate roll type in which the sizing liquid is applied by a surface transfer type, and a rod metering size press. In the pond-type two-roll size press, the sizing liquid easily penetrates into the paper, and in the surface transfer type, the sizing liquid components tend to remain on the surface of the paper. The surface transfer type has a coating layer that tends to remain on the surface of the paper and has more coating layers formed on the surface than the pond-type two-roll size press. In the present disclosure, performance can be imparted to the paper even when the former pond-type two-roll size press is used. The paper treated in this way can show excellent oil resistance and water resistance, etc., by optionally undergoing a heat treatment in a temperature range of up to 300°C, for example up to 200°C, particularly 80°C to 180°C, depending on the properties of the paper, after simple drying at room temperature or high temperature.

[0231] Specific examples of pulp products include paper, paper containers, pulp molded products, food packaging materials, food containers, base paper for gypsum board, coated base paper, medium paper, general liners and cores, neutral pure white roll paper, neutral liners, rust-proof liners and metal laminated paper, kraft paper, neutral printing and writing paper, neutral coated base paper, neutral PPC paper, neutral thermal paper, neutral pressure-sensitive base paper, neutral inkjet paper, and neutral information paper, etc. Examples of suitable pulp products include food packaging materials and food containers, and particularly pulp molded products for food contact applications.

[0232] <Strength of Pulp Molded Product> 〔Dry Strength〕 The dry strength of the pulp molded product of the present disclosure is not particularly limited, but is evaluated by the specific tensile strength in the dry state measured according to JIS P 8113:2006. The specific dry tensile strength is the dry tensile strength divided by the density.

[0233] The dry strength (specific dry tensile strength) of the pulp molded product of the present disclosure is preferably 20.0 Nm / g or more, 25.0 Nm / g or more, 30.0 Nm / g or more, more preferably 35.0 Nm / g or more, still more preferably 40.0 Nm / g or more, and from the viewpoint of ease of production, it may be 200 Nm / g or less, more preferably 100 Nm / g or less, still more preferably 50 Nm / g or less.

[0234] When a polyol-modified product is added to the pulp base material, the dry strength of the resulting pulp product decreases. Although not limited to the addition method, among the internal addition treatment method of adding the polyol-modified product to the pulp slurry before papermaking and the external addition treatment method of applying the polyol-modified product to the paper after papermaking, the internal addition treatment method results in a greater decrease in dry strength. In the present disclosure, it has been found that by adopting a specific composition, even when a polyol-modified product is used, a decrease in dry strength can be suppressed.

[0235] 〔Wet strength〕 The wet strength of the pulp molded product of the present disclosure is not particularly limited, but is evaluated by the specific wet tensile strength measured according to JIS P 8135:0998. The specific wet tensile strength is the wet tensile strength divided by the density.

[0236] The wet strength (specific wet tensile strength) of the pulp molded product of the present disclosure may be 3.0 Nm / g or more, 6.0 Nm / g or more, 8.0 Nm / g or more, 10.0 Nm / g or more, 12.0 Nm / g or more, or 14.0 Nm / g or more, preferably 3.0 Nm / g or more, more preferably 4.0 Nm / g or more, still more preferably 5.0 Nm / g or more, even more preferably 8.0 Nm / g or more, and from the viewpoint of ease of production, it may be 20 Nm / g or less, 18 Nm / g or less, 16 Nm / g or less, or 15 Nm / g or less, preferably 16 Nm / g or less, for example 14 Nm / g or less.

[0237] When a polyol-modified product is added to a pulp base material, the wet strength of the resulting pulp product decreases. Although not limited to the addition method, in the internal addition treatment method of adding an oil-resistant agent to the pulp slurry before papermaking, and the external addition treatment method of applying an oil-resistant agent to the paper after papermaking, the internal addition treatment method results in a greater decrease in wet strength. In the present disclosure, it has been found that by adopting a specific composition, even when using a polyol-modified product, it is possible to suppress the decrease in wet strength.

Examples

[0238] Hereinafter, the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to examples, but the present disclosure is not limited to these examples.

[0239] <Test Method> The test procedure is as follows.

[0240] [Preparation of Pulp Mold] Using an automatic mold forming machine, a pulp mold was prepared. A net-like body was placed on a metal pulp mold forming die provided with a large number of suction holes at the bottom, and a metal tank was placed at the top. The pulp slurry was placed in the upper metal tank. From the side opposite to the side where the net-like body of the pulp mold forming die was placed, the pulp-containing aqueous composition was suctioned and dehydrated at 0.1 to 1 MPa through the pulp mold forming die and the net-like body by a vacuum pump, and the solid content (such as pulp) contained in the pulp-containing aqueous composition was deposited on the net-like body to obtain a pulp mold intermediate. Next, the obtained pulp mold intermediate was dried under a pressure of 0.1 to 1 MPa from above and below with a metal osmosis forming die heated to 60 to 200 °C. Thereby, a pulp mold formed in the shape of a container was manufactured.

[0241] [Practical Oil Resistance Test at 65 °C] The pulp mold was pretreated by storing it under the conditions of 23 °C and 50% humidity for 12 hours. 100 ml of corn oil at 65 °C was poured into the pulp mold, and after leaving it at room temperature for 45 minutes, the corn oil was taken out from the pulp mold, and the degree of oil stain on the pulp mold was evaluated. The evaluation values were set as follows according to the degree of penetration. 5: No penetration inside 4: Penetration inside. No penetration on the back side. 3: Penetration inside. Slight penetration on the back side. 2: Penetration inside. The penetration on the back side is less than 50% of the area. 1: Penetration inside. The penetration on the back side is 50% or more and less than 100% of the area. 0: Penetration throughout the back side.

[0242] [HD contact angle] A solution (or dispersion) with a solid content concentration of 1.0% of the liquid-repellent compound was spin-coated on a silicon wafer at 2500 rpm for 25 seconds to obtain a smooth spin-coated film. By heating this at 140 °C for 1 minute, a silicon wafer treated with the compound was produced. Chloroform was used as the solvent or dispersion medium. 2 μL of HD (hexadecane) was dropped onto the silicon wafer treated with the compound, and the static contact angle 1 second after droplet deposition was defined as the HD contact angle of the liquid-repellent compound.

[0243] [Tensile strength of pulp molded product] The tensile strength of the pulp mold is not particularly limited, but it was evaluated by the specific tensile strength in the dry state measured according to JIS P 8113:2006. Test pieces were cut out from the bottom surface of the pulp mold with a width of 15 mm, a length of 50 mm, and a thickness of 0.8 mm, and these were used. An autograph manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation was used as the apparatus, and the test was conducted under the conditions of a tensile interval of 30 mm and a tensile speed of 10 mm / min. The strength per unit area was calculated from the results of the tensile test. [Strength per unit area] = Breaking stress (N) / [Thickness (mm) * Test piece width (mm)] [Specific tensile strength] = Breaking stress (N) / [Test piece width (m) * Basis weight (g / m 2 )]
