Description

White cardboard and its manufacturing method, as well as paper containers. 【0001】 This invention relates to white cardboard, a method for manufacturing the same, and paper containers. 【0002】 Traditionally, so-called difficult-to-process waste paper, such as composite paper containing resin or metal layers, has been difficult to recycle. However, in recent years, with growing concern for waste reduction and environmental issues, there has been a desire to recycle more waste paper, and the utilization of such difficult-to-process waste paper is also desired. 【0003】 For example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 6-228894 describes a method for recovering pulp from polyolefins, in which alkali is added to polyolefin laminate waste paper, it is dissociated at a concentration of 10-15% under heating, and after rough sorting and fine sorting processes, it is diluted to a concentration of 0.5-0.85% to obtain the amount of pulp slurry (Lm). 3 ) for the amount of air supplied (GNm 3 A method for processing polyolefin laminate waste paper is disclosed, characterized by performing flotation treatment with a G / L ratio of 5 or more. Furthermore, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2010-43368 discloses a method for recycling metal laminate waste paper, in which at least metal foil is laminated on a paper substrate, and recovering pulp fibers from the metal laminate waste paper, characterized by physically shredding the metal laminate waste paper in advance. Furthermore, Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 6-220784 discloses a method for recovering waste paper, characterized by recovering paper from waste paper in which at least metal foil and / or plastic is laminated on a paper substrate by the following steps (1) to (5): (1) Disintegrating the waste paper by treating it in an alkaline aqueous solution heated with the addition of a deinking / release agent and a penetrating agent mainly consisting of a silicate compound and a carbonate. (2) Diluting with water. (3) Removing coarse dust. (4) A step in which a degassing agent is added and fine dust is removed using a weight cleaner and a light cleaner. (5) A dealkalization step. 【0004】In recent years, so-called aseptic filling methods have been used for beverage containers and other products. Aseptic container packaging materials have a structure in which metal layers and resin layers are laminated onto a paper base. Aseptic container packaging materials have advantages such as reducing the amount of resin used, making them a viable alternative to conventional plastic containers, and thus demand for them is increasing. On the other hand, when difficult-to-process waste paper, such as aseptic container packaging materials that have metal and resin layers in addition to the paper base, is used for recycling, finely dispersed fragments containing the metal layer derived from the difficult-to-process waste paper are mixed in. Therefore, when paper products obtained from recycled difficult-to-process waste paper, especially white cardboard, are used, the quality is significantly reduced due to the inclusion of these dispersed fragments. 【0005】 Japanese Patent Publication No. 6-228894 did not consider the removal of metal and was therefore insufficient for recycling paper substrates containing metal layers. Furthermore, in Japanese Patent Publication Nos. 2010-43368 and 6-220784, the metal and resin layers were pulverized during the recycling process, so dust originating from the metal and resin layers could not be sufficiently removed from the resulting waste paper pulp. For these reasons, using the waste paper pulp obtained in Japanese Patent Publication Nos. 6-228894, 2010-43368, and 6-220784 as raw material for white cardboard would result in a decrease in the quality of the white cardboard itself. Moreover, if this white cardboard is used for paper containers requiring higher quality (e.g., paper containers for food packaging), it would be rejected by metal detectors during the shipping process of the products (food products packaged in these white cardboard containers), leading to a decrease in product shipping efficiency. 【0006】 The object of the present invention is to provide white cardboard, a method for manufacturing the same, and paper containers, in which the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer is reduced and the quality is improved, even when using difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp made from difficult-to-treat recycled paper having at least a paper base layer, a metal layer, and a resin layer as raw material. 【0007】 The present inventors have developed a white cardboard having at least a surface layer, a middle layer, and a back layer, wherein the middle layer contains difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp made from difficult-to-treat recycled paper, and the present inventors have developed a 0.05 mm thick handmade sheet having a metal layer in the pulp obtained from the pulp after the middle layer has been disassembled. 2It has been found that the above problems can be solved by setting the total area and the maximum area of the above disintegrated pieces to be not more than a certain value. 【0008】 The present invention provides the following. <1> A white cardboard having at least a surface layer, a middle layer, and a back layer, wherein the middle layer contains a difficult-to-treat waste paper pulp made from difficult-to-treat waste paper, and the difficult-to-treat waste paper has at least a paper base material layer, a metal layer, and a resin layer, and the grammage of 60 g / m 2 obtained from the pulp obtained by disintegrating the middle layer, having a metal layer in the hand-sheet of 2 The total area of the disintegrated pieces of 0.05 mm 2 or more is 7.0 mm 2 or less, and the maximum area is 2.5 mm 2 or less, white cardboard. <2> The number of the disintegrated pieces of 0.05 mm 2 or more having the metal layer in the hand-sheet is 40 pieces / 0.02 m 2 or less, the white cardboard according to <1>. <3> The blending amount of the difficult-to-treat waste paper pulp in the raw material pulp constituting the middle layer is 0.2% by mass or more and 35% by mass or less, the white cardboard according to <1> or <2>. <4> The middle layer is two or more layers, the white cardboard according to any one of <1> to <3>. <5> The paper base material layer of the difficult-to-treat waste paper contains one or more selected from the group consisting of hardwood kraft pulp and softwood kraft pulp, the white cardboard according to any one of <1> to <4>. <6> The white cardboard according to any one of <1> to <5>, having a pigment coating layer on at least one surface of the white cardboard. <7> The 0.05 mm having the metal layer 2The white cardboard according to any one of <1> to <6>, wherein the above-mentioned disintegrated fragments further include a resin layer. <8> The white cardboard according to any one of <1> to <7>, wherein the difficult-to-treat waste paper is aseptic container waste paper. <9> The white cardboard according to any one of <1> to <8>, wherein the difficult-to-treat waste paper has a structure in which a thermoplastic resin layer / pigment coating layer / paper base material layer / adhesive resin layer / aluminum foil layer / adhesive resin layer / thermoplastic resin layer is laminated in this order. <10> A paper container made using the white cardboard according to any one of <1> to <9>. <11> A method for manufacturing white cardboard as described in any one of <1> to <9>, comprising: a difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp manufacturing step for manufacturing difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp using the difficult-to-process recycled paper as a raw material;

Therefore, the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp in this embodiment has a metal layer and is 0.05 mm thick. 2 The above-mentioned disintegrated fragments are hardly present. Therefore, the white cardboard of this embodiment has a basis weight of 60 g / m² obtained from pulp with the middle layer disintegrated. 2 A 0.05 mm handmade sheet with a metal layer 2 The total area of ​​the above-mentioned dissociated fragments is 7.0 mm². 2 / 0.02m 2 The following conditions apply, and the maximum area is 2.5 mm². 2The following improvements can be made to the quality of the white cardboard. Furthermore, it can be made into white cardboard that is less likely to trigger metal detectors, making it suitable for use in packaging food and other similar products. 【0048】 In the white cardboard of this embodiment, the middle layer may contain other pulps in addition to the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp described above. (Other pulps) There are no particular limitations on the other pulps, but examples include chemical pulps such as unbleached and bleached wood pulp, mechanical pulp, non-wood pulp, and other recycled paper pulps other than the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp described above.

It is preferable that the amount of difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp in the pulp constituting the middle layer is 0.1% by mass or more because it allows for the inclusion of difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp, which improves the recyclability of the difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp. Furthermore, if the amount of difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp in the pulp constituting the middle layer is 50% by mass or less, the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer in the white cardboard can be further reduced. The amount of difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp used in this blend refers to the amount used in the entire middle layer. For example, if the middle layer consists of multiple layers, the total amount of pulp in all of those layers is considered to be 100% by mass, and the amount of difficult-to-process recycled paper used refers to the proportion of that pulp. 【0050】In the white cardboard of this embodiment, the middle layer may be one layer, but from the viewpoint of improving the strength of the white cardboard, it is preferably two or more layers, and there is no particular upper limit to the number of layers of the middle layer, but from the viewpoint of ease of handling, for example, it is preferably seven layers or less, more preferably five layers or less, and even more preferably four layers or less. 【0051】 (Under-surface layer and under-back layer) Of the middle layers, the layer located immediately below the surface layer and in contact with the surface layer is sometimes called the under-surface layer. Also, of the middle layers, the layer located immediately below the under-back layer and in contact with the under-back layer is sometimes called the under-back layer. In this case, the under-surface layer and under-back layer are layers with a higher degree of whiteness than the other middle layers. To further improve the surface whiteness of the under-surface layer, it is preferable to form it using recycled paper pulp with a higher degree of whiteness among the middle layers mentioned above. In this case, it is preferable to use pulp with a lower degree of whiteness than the pulp of the surface layer but a higher degree of whiteness than the other middle layers. Furthermore, pigments such as white clay, clay, calcined clay, talc, titanium dioxide, silica, and calcium carbonate can also be blended into the under-surface layer. When the whiteness of the underside is increased, it is preferable to form the under-back layer using recycled paper pulp with a higher degree of whiteness among the middle layers mentioned above in order to further improve the whiteness of the underside. This underlayer is usually adjusted to have a lower whiteness than the pulp in the surface layer and a higher whiteness than the other middle layers. However, if the whiteness of the underlayer is to be the same as that of the surface layer, it may have the same composition as the underlayer. Furthermore, pigments such as white clay, clay, fired clay, talc, titanium dioxide, silica, and calcium carbonate can be added to the underlayer. 【0052】 In this embodiment, the basis weight of the front and back sublayers of the white cardboard is preferably 10 g / m², from the viewpoint of improving the strength of the white cardboard, improving the recyclability of difficult-to-process waste paper, and reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments containing a metal layer in the difficult-to-process waste paper pulp. 2 More than 100g / m 2 More preferably, 20 g / m 2 50g / m or more 2 More preferably, 25 g / m 2 45g / m or more 2 More preferably, 30 g / m 2 40g / m or more 2The following applies. Note that if the white cardboard has a front and back sub-layer, the basis weights of the front and back sub-layers are shown as their respective basis weights. 【0053】 <Surface Layer> In the white cardboard of this embodiment, there are no particular restrictions on the raw material pulp that constitutes the surface layer, and examples include the pulp that constitutes the surface layer of conventionally known white cardboard. It is preferable not to use difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp so that the surface layer does not contain disintegrated fragments having a metal layer and a resin layer. The main component of the pulp that constitutes the surface layer is, for example, one or more selected from the group consisting of deinked pulp and bleached pulp, and examples include the other pulps mentioned above. In this specification, "main component of the pulp that constitutes layer A" means pulp that accounts for 50% by mass or more, preferably 80% by mass or more, and more preferably 90% by mass or more of the total amount of pulp that constitutes layer A (upper limit 100% by mass). Examples of deinked pulp include the recycled paper pulp obtained by deinking as described above, which is recycled paper pulp with high whiteness. Bleaching treatment may be performed to increase the whiteness. As the surface deinking pulp, deinking pulp derived from recycled paper with high whiteness, such as white top white / cards, extra white / medium white / white Manila, imitation / colored top whites, etc., is preferred, and recycled Kent paper pulp is particularly preferred. Examples of bleached pulp include bleached hardwood kraft pulp (LBKP), semi-bleached hardwood kraft pulp (LSBKP), bleached softwood kraft pulp (NBKP), semi-bleached softwood kraft pulp (NSBKP), and bleached chemothermetic pulp (BCTMP), with bleached hardwood kraft pulp (LBKP) and bleached softwood kraft pulp (NBKP) being particularly preferred. In addition, other pulps such as unbleached pulp can be used in combination as long as they do not impair the effects of the present invention. 【0054】 From the viewpoint of improving the strength of the white cardboard, the basis weight of the surface layer of the white cardboard in this embodiment is preferably 10 g / m². 2 More than 100g / m 2 More preferably, 20 g / m 2 50g / m or more 2 More preferably, 25 g / m 2 40g / m or more 2 More preferably, 27 g / m 2 35g / m or more2 The following applies: 【0055】 <Backing Layer> In the white cardboard of this embodiment, there are no particular restrictions on the raw material pulp that constitutes the backing layer, and examples include the pulp that constitutes the backing layer of conventionally known white cardboard. It is preferable not to use difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp so that the backing layer does not contain disintegrated fragments having a metal layer. The main component of the pulp that constitutes the backing layer is, for example, the other pulp mentioned above, and from the viewpoint of further improving recyclability, other recycled paper pulp is preferred, and it is more preferable that it be one or more selected from the group consisting of recycled newspaper pulp and recycled magazine pulp. Although the same degree of whiteness as the surface layer is not required, since it is seen by people, pulp with a higher degree of whiteness than the middle layer is usually used. The backing layer may also contain pulp derived from shredded office paper, etc. Pulp obtained by disintegrating shredded office paper, etc. has a relatively high degree of whiteness even without deinking and bleaching treatment, so it is preferable to blend it into the backing layer. If a higher degree of whiteness is required, the backing layer may be made the same as the surface layer. 【0056】 From the viewpoint of improving the strength of the white cardboard, the basis weight of the backing layer of the white cardboard in this embodiment is preferably 10 g / m². 2 More than 100g / m 2 More preferably, 15 g / m 2 40g / m or more 2 More preferably, 18 g / m 2 30g / m or more 2 More preferably, 21 g / m 2 More than 27g / m 2 The following applies: 【0057】 In each layer of the white cardboard of this embodiment, internal additives may be used as needed. For example, yield improvers such as aluminum sulfate, sizing agents such as rosin, paper strength enhancers (dry paper strength enhancers) such as polyacrylamide and starch, filtration yield improvers, wet paper strength enhancers such as polyamide, polyamine, and epichlorohydrin, dyes, fillers, etc. Among these, aluminum sulfate and paper strength enhancers (dry paper strength enhancers) are preferred. 【0058】The content of aluminum sulfate is not particularly limited, but in each layer, it is preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more and 5.0 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the raw pulp constituting the layer. The content of sizing agent is not particularly limited, but in each layer, it is preferably 0 parts by mass or more and 2.0 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the raw pulp constituting the layer. The sizing agent is preferably contained in the surface layer, and if so, it is preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more and 2.0 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the raw pulp constituting the layer. The content of paper strength agent (dry paper strength enhancer) is not particularly limited, but in each layer, it is preferably 0.05 parts by mass or more and 5.0 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the raw pulp constituting the layer. Known fillers can be used, for example, light calcium carbonate is preferred, and its content is not particularly limited, but in each layer, it is preferably 0 parts by mass or more and 15.0 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the raw pulp constituting the layer. 【0059】 The basis weight of the white cardboard of this embodiment, which is composed of the surface layer, middle layer, and back layer, is preferably 100 g / m². 2 More than 600g / m 2 More preferably, 200 g / m 2 More than 550g / m 2 More preferably, 250 g / m 2 More than 500g / m 2 More preferably, 300 g / m 2 450g / m or more 2 The following applies: It is preferable that the basis weight of the white cardboard be within the above range, as this provides superior handling advantages. 【0060】 In the white cardboard of this embodiment, the amount of difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp is preferably 0.2% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less, more preferably 1% by mass or more and 30% by mass or less, even more preferably 2% by mass or more and 20% by mass or less, and even more preferably 3% by mass or more and 15% by mass or less. When the amount of difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp is 0.2% by mass or more, the difficult-to-treat recycled paper can be used effectively, which is preferable as it improves recyclability. Furthermore, when the amount of difficult-to-treat recycled paper pulp is 40% by mass or less, the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer in the white cardboard can be further reduced. 【0061】 <Pigment Coating Layer> Furthermore, a pigment coating layer may be provided on at least one surface of the above-mentioned white cardboard. For example, a pigment coating liquid containing a pigment and a binder may be applied and dried to provide a pigment coating layer, thereby creating white cardboard (coated white cardboard). By providing a pigment coating layer, the color of the intermediate layer can be further concealed, resulting in white cardboard with high surface whiteness, and the printability of the surface can also be improved. The pigment is not particularly limited, but examples include kaolin, calcium carbonate (heavy calcium carbonate, light calcium carbonate), titanium dioxide, aluminum hydroxide, silica, satin white, talc, and other pigments commonly used in the coated paper manufacturing field. Among these, calcium carbonate is preferred because it exhibits excellent printability. The pigment may be used alone or in combination of two or more types. 【0062】 A water-based adhesive is preferred as the binder. The water-based adhesive is composed of water, a polymer, and other additives as needed. Examples of polymers include starches such as oxidized starch, phosphate-esterified starch, hydroxyethyl etherified starch, dextrin, enzyme-modified starch, and water-soluble starch; latexes such as conjugated diene copolymer latex such as styrene-butadiene copolymer latex, methyl methacrylate-butadiene copolymer latex, and styrene-methyl methacrylate-butadiene copolymer latex, and acrylic copolymer latex such as acrylic acid ester and / or methacrylic acid ester copolymer latex; proteins such as casein, gelatin, and soy protein; synthetic resins such as various polyvinyl alcohols, various polyacrylamides, and melamine resins; and various cellulose derivatives such as carboxymethylcellulose. The binder can be one or more selected from the group consisting of these polymers. 【0063】Among these, latex with a glass transition temperature of -50 to 30°C, as measured by Vibron viscoelasticity, is preferred because it increases the flexibility of the coated surface and improves its resistance to breakage. In this case, it is more preferable that the glass transition temperature of the latex used is -50 to 0°C. It is also preferable to blend starch together with the latex. When latex and starch are used together, a balance is achieved between fixing the fine fibers inside the coated layer and the surface strength of the coated layer. The mass ratio of latex to starch is preferably 100:0 to 50:50. 【0064】 The coating liquid for the pigment coating layer may further contain, as needed, one or more of the following: dispersants, pH adjusters such as sodium hydroxide and ammonia water; defoamers; fluorescent dyes; mold release agents; water-resistant agents; fluidity improvers; slime control agents; preservatives; dyes; coloring pigments, etc. A pigment coating layer may also be applied to the surface of the back layer. When applying a pigment coating layer to the surface of the front layer of white cardboard, an example method involves applying the pigment coating liquid to the surface of the front layer, and then drying the coating layer formed by the application to form a pigment coating layer on the surface of the front layer. The pigment coating layer may be formed as a single layer, or it may be formed as a multi-layered pigment coating layer by applying the pigment coating liquid in multiple stages. When applying the pigment coating liquid in multiple stages, for example, in two stages, the coating liquids for the first layer (undercoat) and the second layer (topcoat) may be the same or different. 【0065】 In the coating liquid for the pigment coating layer, the binder content per 100 parts by mass of pigment is preferably 2 to 50 parts by mass, more preferably 5 to 25 parts by mass. When the binder content is 2 parts by mass or more, sufficient strength of the pigment coating layer is ensured, and when the binder content is 50 parts by mass or less, excellent drying properties and suitability for box making are obtained. The coating amount of the coating liquid for the pigment coating layer is preferably 5 to 50 g / m² by dry mass. 2 , more preferably 8 to 40 g / m 2 More preferably 10 to 35 g / m 2The solid content concentration of the coating liquid for the pigment coating layer is preferably 30 to 60% by mass, more preferably 35 to 55% by mass. If the solid content concentration is 30% by mass or more, the opacity of the color of the middle layer is enhanced, and if it is 60% by mass or less, the coatability is good. In addition, the B-type viscosity of the coating liquid for the pigment coating layer is preferably 400 mPa·s or less, more preferably 300 mPa·s or less, in order to ensure workability during coating. The lower limit of the B-type viscosity is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of suppressing unevenness in the coating liquid, it is preferably 20 mPa·s or more. When applying the coating liquid for the pigment coating layer multiple times, each of the pigment coating liquids used should satisfy the above content and characteristics, and it is preferable that the total amount of coating from multiple layers satisfies the above range. In addition, when providing multiple pigment coating layers, it is preferable to increase the pigment concentration of the pigment coating layer closer to the surface. For example, when a pigment coating layer consists of two layers, an undercoat layer and a topcoat layer, it is preferable to have a higher pigment concentration in the first layer (undercoat layer) than in the second layer (topcoat layer). 【0066】 [Paper container] The paper container of this embodiment is a paper container made using the white cardboard of this embodiment described above. Because the paper container of this embodiment uses the white cardboard of this embodiment, even if the raw material is difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp made from difficult-to-process recycled paper, it has a metal layer of 0.05 mm 2 The amount of disintegrated fragments is reduced, and the fragments contained are fine. The paper packaging of this embodiment is not particularly limited in its use, and examples include paper boxes used for tissue paper and confectionery boxes. Because the paper packaging of this embodiment uses the white cardboard of this embodiment, it recycles aseptic container packaging material as a raw material for waste paper pulp, while having a metal layer as described above. 2 Because the amount of the aforementioned disintegrated fragments is reduced, and the fragments that are included are extremely fine, it can also be used as paper packaging for food products and the like. 【0067】[Method for manufacturing white cardboard] The method for manufacturing white cardboard according to this embodiment comprises a difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp manufacturing step, in which difficult-to-process recycled paper is used as raw material to manufacture difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, and a papermaking step, in which white cardboard is made using a paper stock containing the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp as a paper stock for the middle layer, wherein the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp manufacturing step comprises a disintegration step for disintegrating the difficult-to-process recycled paper, a dust removal step for removing foreign matter from the pulp slurry after the disintegration step, and a pulp washing step for washing the pulp in the pulp slurry after the dust removal step, wherein the concentration of the difficult-to-process recycled paper in the disintegration step is 5% by mass or more and 25% by mass or less, and the processing time of the disintegration step is 5 minutes or more and 90 minutes or less. 【0068】 <Manufacturing Process for Difficult-to-Process Recycled Paper Pulp> The manufacturing process for difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp in this embodiment is a recycled paper pulp manufacturing process that uses difficult-to-process recycled paper as a raw material to produce difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, that is, a manufacturing process that produces the above-mentioned difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp from the above-mentioned difficult-to-process recycled paper. 【0069】Typically, recycled paper pulp production involves a disintegration process. In this process, recycled paper is dispersed in water and agitated to allow it to absorb moisture. Forces such as shearing and impact from dropping are applied to loosen the fibers, leading to disintegration and the production of a pulp slurry. In the case of difficult-to-process recycled paper, the disintegration process also pulverizes the metal and resin layers contained in the paper. Normally, recycled paper pulp production includes a dust removal process after the disintegration process to remove foreign matter from the pulp slurry. However, if the metal and resin layers are particularly finely pulverized, they cannot be removed even in the dust removal process, significantly impairing the quality of the recycled paper pulp. On the other hand, in the screening process, which is one of the dust removal processes, it is possible to efficiently remove the finely pulverized metal and resin layers by reducing the size of the slits in the screen used. However, this increases the amount of pulp captured by the screen, thus reducing the yield of the resulting recycled paper pulp. According to the manufacturing process for difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp in this embodiment, it is possible to reduce the amount of disintegrated fragments containing a metal layer in the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp by adjusting the conditions of the disintegration process. Specifically, when the concentration of recycled paper in the disintegration process is 5% by mass or more and the processing time of the disintegration process is 90 minutes or less, the force applied to the difficult-to-process recycled paper is adjusted to an appropriate strength, and the excessive disintegration of the recycled paper is suppressed. As a result, the finening of the metal layer and resin layer is suppressed, and the metal layer and resin layer are sufficiently removed in the dust removal process, so it is thought that the amount of disintegrated fragments containing a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp is reduced. Furthermore, when the concentration of recycled paper in the disintegration process is 25% by mass or less and the processing time of the disintegration process is 5 minutes or more, the disintegration process is sufficient, so it is thought that the yield of the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp is improved. 【0070】 Based on the above, the white cardboard of this embodiment, despite containing difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp in the middle layer, has a basis weight of 60 g / m² obtained from the pulp after disintegrating the middle layer. 2 0.05 mm handmade sheet with a metal layer 2 The total area of ​​the above dissociated fragments is 7.0 mm². 2 / 0.02m 2 The following conditions apply, and the maximum area is 2.5 mm². 2The following is the result, with a 0.05 mm metal layer. 2 The amount of the above-mentioned disintegrated fragments can be reduced, improving the quality of the white cardboard. Furthermore, the 0.05 mm metal layer in the handmade sheet 2 The maximum area of ​​the above-mentioned dissociated fragments is 2.5 mm². 2 The material consists of minute fragments, which do not pose any problems as a product, and even if a metal detector is used during product quality inspection, it will not be rejected as a defective product. It should be noted that the above mechanism is speculative, and the effects of the present invention are not limited by this mechanism. 【0071】 (Difficult-to-process recycled paper) In the manufacturing process of difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp in this embodiment, the difficult-to-process recycled paper that serves as the raw material for the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp has at least a paper base layer, a metal layer and a resin layer, and is similar to the difficult-to-process recycled white cardboard described above. 【0072】 In this embodiment, the average size of the difficult-to-treat waste paper subjected to the disintegration process described later is preferably 600 cm². 2 The following, more preferably 10 cm 2 More than 400cm 2 More preferably, 20 cm 2 More than 300cm 2 More preferably, 30 cm 2 More than 200cm 2 Further, a more preferable length is 40 cm. 2 More than 150cm 2 More preferably, 50 cm 2 More than 100cm 2 The following is particularly preferable: 60 cm 2 More than 90cm 2 The following applies: The average size of the difficult-to-process waste paper used in the disintegration process is 600 cm². 2 The following conditions allow the processing solution to penetrate difficult-to-process waste paper more easily, enabling more efficient disintegration processing, and also, 10 cm 2 As a result, the fineness of the metal and resin layers contained in the difficult-to-treat waste paper is suppressed, and the amount of disintegrated fragments containing the metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-treat waste paper pulp is reduced. The average size of the difficult-to-treat waste paper is measured by the method described in the examples. 【0073】 Difficult-to-process waste paper is usually compressed and packaged into bales of approximately 1 ton in a baler to improve transportation efficiency when shipping to recycling manufacturers. Furthermore, if the difficult-to-process waste paper is used as a liquid container, it is preferable that it be washed beforehand. In this embodiment, the difficult-to-process waste paper may be in the form of a single sheet, or it may be in the form of at least two or more sheets stacked together (waste paper aggregate). The difficult-to-process waste paper may also be torn. In addition, the difficult-to-process waste paper may be crushed by the crushing process described later, before the disintegration process described later. 【0074】 (Crushing process and waste paper washing process) In this embodiment, from the viewpoint of efficiently performing the disintegration process described later, it is preferable that the manufacturing method includes at least one of the following before the disintegration process described later: a crushing process for crushing the difficult-to-process waste paper and a waste paper washing process for washing the difficult-to-process waste paper. It is more preferable to include both the crushing process and the waste paper washing process. 【0075】 [Crushing Process] The manufacturing method of this embodiment includes a crushing process, which ensures that the difficult-to-process waste paper used in the disintegration process is of an appropriate size, thereby improving the efficiency of the disintegration process. As a result, the amount of disintegrated metal layer fragments in the raw pulp can be reduced, improving the quality of the resulting white cardboard. Furthermore, the yield of the resulting difficult-to-process waste paper pulp is further improved. The manufacturing method of this embodiment includes a crushing process before the disintegration process described later, and the average size of the difficult-to-process waste paper after crushing is preferably 10 cm. 2 More than 400cm 2 Below, 20cm 2 More than 300cm 2 More preferably 30 cm 2 More than 200cm 2 More preferably, 40 cm 2 More than 150cm 2 More preferably, 50 cm 2 More than 100cm 2 Further, a more preferable length is 60 cm. 2 More than 90cm 2 The following is true: The average size of difficult-to-process waste paper after shredding is 10 cm. 2As a result, the fineness of the metal and resin layers contained in the difficult-to-process waste paper is suppressed, and the amount of disintegrated fragments containing the metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process waste paper pulp is reduced, and also, 400 cm 2 The following conditions allow the treatment solution to penetrate the difficult-to-treat waste paper more easily, enabling more efficient disintegration. The average size of the difficult-to-treat waste paper after crushing is measured by the method described in the examples. 【0076】 [Washing Process for Waste Paper] The manufacturing method of this embodiment includes a washing process for waste paper, which allows for the removal of foreign matter adhering to difficult-to-process waste paper, thereby improving the quality of the resulting white cardboard. In the washing process for waste paper, water, acidic washing water, alkaline washing water, washing water containing an oxidizing agent, etc., are typically used as the washing water for washing the waste paper fragments, and water is preferred from the viewpoint of wastewater treatment. The manufacturing method of this embodiment includes a washing process for waste paper before the disintegration process described later, and the amount of washing water per unit mass of difficult-to-process waste paper is preferably 0.5 L / kg or more and 30 L / kg or less, more preferably 5.0 L / kg or more and 25 L / kg or less, and even more preferably 10 L / kg or more and 20 L / kg or less. A washing water amount of 0.5 L / kg or more allows for efficient removal of foreign matter adhering to difficult-to-process waste paper, and a washing water amount of 30 L / kg or less reduces the amount of wastewater used in the waste paper washing process, thereby reducing processing costs and environmental burden. 【0077】 The waste paper washing process may be performed before the crushing process, after the crushing process and before the disintegration process, or simultaneously with the crushing process. Among these, from the viewpoint of improving washing efficiency, it is preferable to perform the waste paper washing process after the crushing process and before the disintegration process, or to perform the crushing process and the waste paper washing process simultaneously, and it is more preferable to perform the crushing process and the waste paper washing process simultaneously. As for the equipment used in the waste paper washing process, any known equipment can be used as appropriate. Furthermore, when the crushing process and the waste paper washing process are performed simultaneously, it is preferable to use a crushing and washing machine or the like as appropriate. 【0078】 (Disintegration Process) The disintegration process in the manufacturing process of difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp is the process of disintegrating difficult-to-process recycled paper. Disintegration is the process of turning difficult-to-process recycled paper into a slurry. 【0079】 [Recycled Paper Concentration] In the manufacturing process of difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, the concentration of difficult-to-process recycled paper in the disintegration process (concentration of dry solids of difficult-to-process recycled paper in the processing liquid) is 5% by mass or more and 25% by mass or less. When the concentration of difficult-to-process recycled paper is 5% by mass or more, it prevents excessive disintegration and suppresses the finening of the metal layer and resin layer. Therefore, in the dust removal process described later, the finely granulated metal and resin are sufficiently removed, and the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer in the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp can be reduced. As a result, in the white cardboard of this embodiment, the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer is reduced (particularly contributing to a reduction in total area and number), and the quality of the white cardboard can be improved. Furthermore, when the concentration of difficult-to-process recycled paper is 25% by mass or less, sufficient disintegration is performed (particularly contributing to the maximum area of ​​the disintegrated fragments), and the yield of the obtained difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp is improved. The concentration of difficult-to-process waste paper in the disintegration process is preferably 5% by mass or more, preferably 7% by mass or more, more preferably 9% by mass or more, and even more preferably 12% by mass or more, from the viewpoint of reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process waste paper pulp and improving the quality of the white cardboard of this embodiment, and from the viewpoint of improving the yield of the resulting difficult-to-process waste paper pulp, it is preferably 22% by mass or less, more preferably 20% by mass or less, and even more preferably 19% by mass or less. 【0080】[Processing Time] In the manufacturing process for difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, the processing time in the disintegration process is 5 minutes or more and 90 minutes or less. If the processing time is 5 minutes or more, sufficient disintegration is performed, and the yield of the obtained recycled paper pulp is improved. Furthermore, if the processing time is 90 minutes or less, excessive disintegration is prevented, and the fineness of the metal layer and resin layer is suppressed. Therefore, in the dust removal process described later, the finely ground metal and resin are sufficiently removed, and the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer in the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp is reduced. As a result, in the white cardboard of this embodiment, the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer is reduced, and the quality of the white cardboard can be improved. From the viewpoint of improving the yield of the obtained difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, the processing time in the disintegration process is preferably 10 minutes or more, more preferably 20 minutes or more, and even more preferably 30 minutes or more, and from the viewpoint of reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer in the obtained difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, it is preferably 75 minutes or less, more preferably 60 minutes or less, and even more preferably 45 minutes or less. 【0081】 [Processing Temperature] In the manufacturing process for difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, the processing temperature in the disintegration process is preferably 5°C or higher, more preferably 10°C or higher, even more preferably 20°C or higher, and even more preferably 30°C or higher, from the viewpoint of improving the disintegrability of the difficult-to-process recycled paper and improving the yield of the obtained difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, and from the viewpoint of reducing disintegration fragments having a metal layer in the obtained difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, it is preferably 80°C or lower, more preferably 70°C or lower, even more preferably 60°C or lower, and even more preferably 50°C or lower. 【0082】 [pH] In the manufacturing process for difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, the pH of the processing solution in the disintegration process is preferably between 5 and 11. Having the pH of the processing solution within this range allows the processing solution to penetrate the difficult-to-process recycled paper more easily. Therefore, the disintegration process is carried out efficiently, improving the yield of the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp. Furthermore, since the processing time for the disintegration process can be kept within the above range, the miniaturization of the metal and resin layers contained in the difficult-to-process recycled paper is suppressed, reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments containing the metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp. 【0083】In the manufacturing process for difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, chemicals such as basic compounds and surfactants may be added as needed during the disintegration process. 【0084】 In the disintegration process, adjusting the pH of the processing solution to the above range by adding a basic compound is preferable because it allows for efficient disintegration, improves the yield of the resulting difficult-to-process waste paper pulp, and reduces the amount of disintegrated fragments containing a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process waste paper pulp. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of reducing the cost of wastewater treatment, it is preferable not to use a basic compound. Therefore, in the disintegration process, the amount of basic compound added is preferably 1% by mass or less, more preferably 0.5% by mass or less, even more preferably 0.1% by mass or less, and even more preferably 0% by mass, relative to the difficult-to-process waste paper. As the basic compound, alkali metal hydroxides are preferred, and sodium hydroxide is more preferred. 【0085】Furthermore, in the disintegration process, adding a surfactant facilitates the penetration of the treatment liquid between the paper substrate of the difficult-to-treat waste paper and the metal and resin layers. This makes it easier to separate the paper substrate from the metal and resin layers, reducing the amount of disintegrated layer containing the metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-treat waste paper pulp, which is preferable. Additionally, adding a surfactant is preferable because, for example, if the difficult-to-treat waste paper has a printed layer, the pigments or dyes contained in the printed layer are efficiently removed. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of reducing the cost of wastewater treatment, it is preferable not to use a surfactant. Therefore, in the disintegration process, the amount of surfactant added is preferably 1% by mass or less, more preferably 0.5% by mass or less, even more preferably 0.1% by mass or less, and even more preferably 0% by mass, relative to the difficult-to-treat waste paper. As the surfactant, a higher alcohol-based surfactant is preferred, a higher alcohol-based nonionic surfactant is more preferred, and a higher alcohol-based amphoteric surfactant is even more preferred. Furthermore, the carbon number of the higher alcohol-based surfactant is preferably 6 to 20, for example. Furthermore, examples of surfactants include higher alcohol-based surfactants used as deinking agents, such as DI-7020, DI-7030, DI-767, DI-7282 manufactured by Kao Corporation, DIA-Z-100, DIA-Z-5000 manufactured by Nisshin Chemical Research Institute Co., Ltd., NeoScore FW-780, NeoScore FW-790, NeoScore FW-795, FT-467, FT-470, FT-487, FT-511, FT-513, FT-514, FT-515, B-B agent manufactured by Toho Chemical Co., Ltd., Daihope 940, Daihope 960 manufactured by Daiichi Kogyo Seiyaku Co., Ltd., and Lipobright DP-810 manufactured by Nikka Co., Ltd., but are not limited to these. 【0086】In the manufacturing process of difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, the disintegration process is preferably carried out using a disintegrator called a pulper. From the viewpoint of keeping the recycled paper concentration within the above range, it is preferable to use a medium-concentration pulper and a high-concentration pulper, and more preferably a high-concentration pulper. Here, "concentration" in medium-concentration pulper and high-concentration pulper refers to the range of recycled paper concentrations that can be disintegrated by each pulper. A medium-concentration pulper is generally a pulper that can perform disintegration with a recycled paper concentration in the range of approximately 7 to 9% by mass. A high-concentration pulper is generally a pulper that can perform disintegration with a recycled paper concentration in the range of approximately 10 to 20% by mass. An example of a medium-concentration pulper is one in which an agitator blade called a rotor is attached to the bottom or inner wall of the tank. An example of a high-concentration pulper is one that is similar to a medium-concentration pulper but with a larger rotor shape, a drum pulper in which the disintegration tank is a horizontal drum shape, and a kneading pulper in which agitator blades are installed in multiple stages inside the tank. 【0087】 Furthermore, the solid content of each pulp slurry obtained in each step after the disintegration step may be adjusted as appropriate for the next step. For example, when transporting to the next step, water or the like may be added to the pulp slurry obtained in each step to lower the solid content, from the viewpoint of improving transport efficiency. Alternatively, the solid content of the pulp slurry may be lowered by adding water or the like to the pulp slurry to make it suitable for the solid content concentration when carrying out each treatment in each step, or the solid content concentration may be increased by dehydrating the pulp slurry. 【0088】In this embodiment, a maturation step may be included before the dust removal step described later, in which the pulp slurry after the disintegration step is matured. The maturation step may be carried out by supplying the pulp slurry after the disintegration step to a maturation tower and storing it in the maturation tower. In the maturation step, the pulp slurry after the disintegration step may be left to stand, or it may be gently stirred to maintain the fluidity of the pulp slurry. By including a maturation step, the separation of pulp and foreign matter in the pulp slurry after the disintegration step is further promoted, thereby improving the yield of the resulting recycled paper pulp. From the viewpoint of improving the yield of the resulting recycled paper pulp, the maturation time in the maturation step is preferably 6 hours or more, more preferably 8 hours or more, and even more preferably 10 hours or more. Furthermore, there is no particular upper limit to the maturation time in the maturation step, but from the viewpoint of improving the productivity of recycled paper pulp, it is preferably 24 hours or less, more preferably 20 hours or less, and even more preferably 16 hours or less. Furthermore, the solid content concentration in the pulp slurry during the maturation process is preferably 8% by mass or more and 25% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or more and 20% by mass or less, and even more preferably 12% by mass or more and 18% by mass or less. Furthermore, the temperature during maturation in the maturation process is preferably 25°C or higher, more preferably 30°C or higher, even more preferably 35°C or higher, and preferably 70°C or lower, more preferably 60°C or lower, and even more preferably 50°C or lower. 【0089】 (Dust Removal Process) In this embodiment, the dust removal process is a process of removing foreign matter from the pulp slurry after the disintegration process. In addition, in this embodiment, if there is a maturation process after the disintegration process, the dust removal process is a process of removing foreign matter from the pulp slurry after the maturation process. Here, foreign matter includes components derived from the metal layer and resin layer of the difficult-to-process waste paper. 【0090】 In this embodiment, the dust removal step preferably includes a step of removing foreign matter from the pulp slurry after the disintegration step by centrifugal separation and a step of removing foreign matter from the pulp slurry after the disintegration step by screen treatment. The same applies in this embodiment if there is a maturation step after the disintegration treatment. 【0091】The process of removing foreign matter by centrifugal separation primarily involves removing large foreign matter generated after the disintegration process using a cleaner. The cleaner is conical in shape and, by the principle of centrifugal separation, can remove foreign matter with a specific gravity greater than pulp fibers, such as sand and metal particles. From the viewpoint of efficiently removing foreign matter with a specific gravity greater than pulp fibers, heavy foreign matter cleaners and low-concentration ramole cleaners are recommended as cleaners used in the process of removing foreign matter by centrifugal separation. In the process of removing foreign matter by centrifugal separation, the concentration of the pulp slurry is preferably 0.5% by mass or more and 5.0% by mass or less, more preferably 0.8% by mass or more and 4.0% by mass or less, and even more preferably 1.0% by mass or more and 3.0% by mass or less, from the viewpoint of efficiently removing foreign matter, reducing disintegrated fragments containing a metal layer in the resulting recycled paper pulp, and improving the quality of white cardboard. 【0092】The process of removing foreign matter by screening is performed after the process of removing foreign matter by centrifugal separation, for the purpose of removing foreign matter. As the screen used for screening, for example, a basket-type screen with holes or slits that open to a predetermined opening area can be used, a slit screen can be used, a coarse screen can be used, or a fine screen can be used. From the viewpoint of efficiently removing foreign matter by screening, reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments containing a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, and improving the quality of white cardboard, it is preferable to perform fine screening after coarse screening. As the coarse screen, a round-hole screen or a slit screen is preferred, with a round-hole screen being more preferred. The diameter of the round holes in the round-hole screen is preferably 0.5 mm or more and 2.5 mm or less, more preferably 0.8 mm or more and 2.0 mm or less. The slit width of the slit screen is preferably 0.1 mm or more and 0.5 mm or less. The slit width of the selection screen is preferably 0.10 mm to 0.25 mm, more preferably 0.10 mm to 0.20 mm, and even more preferably 0.12 mm to 0.18 mm. The wider the slit width of the selection screen, the higher the yield of the resulting recycled paper pulp, and the narrower the slit width, the fewer fragments containing a metal layer are found in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp. 【0093】 In the coarse screening process, the solid content concentration of the pulp slurry is preferably 1.0% to 5.0% by mass, more preferably 1.5% to 4.0% by mass, and even more preferably 2.0% to 3.0% by mass, from the viewpoint of efficiently removing foreign matter, reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments with a metal layer in the resulting recycled paper pulp, and improving the quality of white cardboard. In the fine screening process, the solid content concentration of the pulp slurry is preferably 0.2% to 5.0% by mass, more preferably 0.5% to 3.5% by mass, and even more preferably 0.8% to 3.0% by mass, from the viewpoint of efficiently removing foreign matter, reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments with a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, and improving the quality of white cardboard. 【0094】 Furthermore, the dust removal process may be performed multiple times. In order to balance the improvement of the yield of the resulting recycled paper pulp with the reduction of disintegrated fragments containing a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper, it is preferable to perform the process 1 to 3 times, and more preferably 1 time. 【0095】 (Deinking Process) In the process of manufacturing difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, for example, if the difficult-to-process recycled paper has a printed layer, a deinking process may be included after the dust removal process and before the pulp washing process described later, if necessary, to deink the pulp slurry. The deinking process removes the ink contained in the printed layer from the pulp slurry, as well as coarse inorganic foreign matter. The deinking process may be carried out using a flotator or the like. 【0096】 When deinking is performed using a flotator, the solid content concentration of the pulp slurry is preferably 0.5% by mass or more and 2.0% by mass or less, more preferably 0.5% by mass or more and 1.3% by mass or less. In addition, a deinking agent may be added immediately before processing with the flotator during the deinking process. As a deinking agent used immediately before processing with the flotator, one with strong ink coagulation properties is preferred. In the case of fatty acids, examples include DI-254 (oleic acid) and DI-268 manufactured by Kao Corporation, and K-4004-D manufactured by Daiichi Kogyo Seiyaku Co., Ltd. In the case of fatty acid derivatives, examples include DIY-23543 manufactured by Kao Corporation, and Paper Aid W and Daihope 1000 manufactured by Daiichi Kogyo Seiyaku Co., Ltd. In the case of higher alcohols, an example is DI-7020 manufactured by Kao Corporation. In the deinking process, when a deinking agent is added, the amount of deinking agent added is preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more and 0.5 parts by mass or less, and more preferably 0.03 parts by mass or more and 0.3 parts by mass or less, per 100 parts by mass of solid content of the pulp slurry. 【0097】 Furthermore, the deinking process may include a step to remove foreign matter by centrifugal separation after the deinking process, in order to further remove any foreign matter. The step to remove foreign matter by centrifugal separation may be the same as the step to remove foreign matter by centrifugal separation exemplified in the dust removal process described above. 【0098】(Pulp Washing Process) In the process of manufacturing difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, the pulp washing process is a process of washing the pulp in the pulp slurry after the dust removal process. In this embodiment, if there is a deinking process after the dust removal process, the pulp washing process is a process of washing the pulp in the pulp slurry after the deinking process. The pulp washing process removes more detached fragments originating from the metal layer and resin layer of the pulp in the pulp slurry, as well as foreign matter originating from the printing layer. As a result, the amount of detached fragments with a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp is reduced, the amount of such detached fragments in the resulting white cardboard is reduced, and the quality can be improved. The pulp washing process may, if necessary, alternately repeat washing the pulp in the pulp slurry and dewatering the pulp slurry. 【0099】 Examples of equipment used in the pulp washing process include DNT washers, compact washers, fall washers, Variosplit, SP filters, DP Cosmo, gap washers, and disc filters, with disc filters being preferred. In the pulp washing process, the solid content concentration of the pulp slurry is preferably 0.5% by mass or more and 5.0% by mass or less, more preferably 1.0% by mass or more and 3.0% by mass or less, from the viewpoint of efficiently removing foreign matter from the pulp slurry and reducing the amount of disintegrated fragments having a metal layer in the resulting difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp. 【0100】 In this embodiment, it is preferable to have a dewatering step after the pulp washing step to dewater the pulp slurry and obtain pulp. By having a dewatering step, the handling properties of the obtained difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp are improved, and when producing paper products using difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp, it becomes easier to blend it with the raw pulp. Examples of equipment used to dewater the pulp slurry in the dewatering step include a double nip thickener, a drum thickener, a disc thickener, a valveless thickener, etc., and a disc thickener is preferred. 【0101】<Papermaking Process> In the manufacturing method of this embodiment, the papermaking process is the process of making the white cardboard of this embodiment described above. That is, this papermaking process is the process of making the white cardboard of this embodiment described above using the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp obtained by the difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp manufacturing process described above as the paper stock for the middle layer. The white cardboard of this embodiment has the surface layer, middle layer and back layer described above, and is obtained as a multilayer structure by combining three or more paper layers that use pulp as the main raw material. It can be manufactured using a known multilayer papermaking machine, for example, a papermaking machine that combines a long-wire former and a cylinder former. It is also possible to strengthen the strength between each layer by spraying or coating an adhesive such as starch between each layer when they are combined. 【0102】 (Coating Layer Formation Process) In addition, if necessary, a pigment coating layer can be formed on the surface of the white cardboard to make coated white cardboard. When forming a pigment coating layer, a pigment coating liquid is applied to the surface of the surface and dried to form the pigment coating layer. The pigment coating liquid is the same as that described for the pigment coating layer of the white cardboard above, and in the manner described above, the pigment coating liquid is applied to the surface of the surface, and the coating layer formed by the application is dried to form a pigment coating layer on the surface of the surface. 【0103】 As described above, the pigment coating liquid may be applied in multiple layers. When the pigment coating liquid is applied in multiple layers, for example, in two layers, the coating liquids for the first layer (undercoat) and the second layer (topcoat) may be the same or different. The pigment coating liquid may be applied directly to the surface, or it may be applied via a coating film made of size-press liquid applied to the surface. In addition, the surface may be smoothed using a pre-calender before applying the pigment coating liquid. 【0104】The coating device may be on-machine or off-machine, but it is preferable to use an on-machine device that utilizes a known coater part attached to the paper machine. Suitable coating devices for the coater part include, for example, blade coaters, air knife coaters, roll coaters, reverse roll coaters, bar coaters, curtain coaters, slot die coaters, gravure coaters, champlex coaters, brush coaters, slide bead coaters, two-roll or metering blade type size press coaters, bill blade coaters, short dwell coaters, gate roll coaters, and calender nip coaters. Among these, bar coaters, rod metering coaters, and curtain coaters are preferred because they provide a consistent coating amount, thus suppressing uneven coating. The applied coating layer is then dried using a known drying device to form the pigment coating layer. The paper machine may have multiple coater parts. In this case, the pigment coating layer can be applied in multiple stages. 【0105】 A calendering section may be provided after the coater section, if necessary. By providing a calendering section after the coater section, the pigment coating layer is smoothed. Known calendering devices can be used as appropriate for the calendering section after the coater section, such as supercalenders, gloss calenders, soft nip calenders, thermal calenders, and shoe calenders. These may be used in combination. Among these, a soft nip calender equipped with metal rolls and elastic rolls is preferred because it can smooth the pigment coating layer while maintaining the paper thickness. The calendering section after the coater section may be on-machine or off-machine. 【0106】 The features of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to examples and comparative examples. The materials, amounts used, proportions, processing content, and processing procedures shown in the following examples can be modified as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should not be interpreted as being limited by the specific examples shown below. In addition, the operations in the examples and comparative examples were carried out under conditions of 23±1℃ and 50±2%RH unless otherwise specified. 【0107】 <Example 1> [Manufacturing process for difficult-to-process recycled paper pulp] [Crushing process, recycled paper washing process] Aseptic container recycled paper listed in Table 1 was used as difficult-to-process recycled paper, and it was crushed and washed in a crushing and washing machine (A-Tech Co., Ltd., paper container recycling device PPRS, number of hooks: 6, washing water: water, washing water volume 15 L / kg) for 10 cm 2 More than 400cm 2 The following size (average size after crushing: 78 cm) 2 ) was crushed and washed. [Disintegration process] The crushed and washed difficult-to-process waste paper and water were loaded into a kneading pulper (KNP-10 type manufactured by Nippon Sharyo Ltd.), and disintegration treatment was carried out under the conditions of a difficult-to-process waste paper concentration of 19% by mass, a processing time of 30 minutes, a processing temperature of 40°C, and pH 6 to obtain a difficult-to-process waste paper pulp slurry. [Dust removal process] After the disintegration process, the pulp slurry was adjusted to a solid content of 2.5% by mass, then processed with a weight foreign matter cleaner (FC100 type manufactured by Aikawa Iron Works Co., Ltd.), and further processed with a coarse sorting screen (MaxFlow-1, Model 1000 type, 1.2 mm round hole manufactured by Aikawa Iron Works Co., Ltd.).
