The invention relates to 42-47g / m < 2 > ultra-low basis weight corrugating medium paper and a production process thereof, and belongs to the technical field of packaging paperboards. Kaolin is introduced as a high-quality filler in the production process of the corrugating medium paper, and
phthalimide is used as a modifier, so that the
dispersity and stability of kaolin in a
fiber matrix are effectively improved, the
binding force between fibers is enhanced, and the overall structural strength and
mechanical property of the corrugating medium paper are remarkably improved. Meanwhile,
corn starch is treated by beta-
amylase to prepare
modified starch, so that the
viscosity and the permeability of the
modified starch are improved, the combination among fibers is further consolidated, and the tensile strength and the
bursting strength of the corrugated medium paper are improved. Besides,
polyethylene glycol and
nanocellulose are added as a
lubricant and a stabilizer, friction between fibers and filler is reduced, the flexibility and
plasticity of paper are improved, and layering or
precipitation of modified components is prevented, so that the production process is optimized, the production quantitation is reduced, and the economical efficiency and environmental friendliness of the material are improved.
