Coatings Contaminants Contaminants Clay Coatings Original Use Added to Give Paper & Smooth Surface Paper or Paperboard Laminates and Coatings Added to give Good Gloss and Grease Resistance; Vapor Proofness, Heat Sealing, Strength, and Special Resistance to Solvents In-Mill Processing Difficulty Disintegrates into Flakes Causing Defects in Final Product Difficult to Disperse in Pulper; Formation of Objectionable Specks or Pellets; Fouls Equipment Causes Difficulty in Deinking Wax Coatings Solvent Coatings (cellulose nitrate, vinyl)

Effect of Repeated Recycling on Strength Properties of Unbleached Kraft Pulp
22
Effect of Recycling
23
Recycling Operations StepPrincipal Contaminant Functions Prepulping- Classification of Paper Sources by Grade - Quality Control of the Grades - Contaminant Removal From Papers Pulping- Wetting of Paper - Conditioning of Fiber - Conditioning of Contaminants - Removal of Large Type Contaminants Secondary Pulping- Wetting of Fiber Bundles - Conditioning of Fiber - Removal of Medium Size and Heavy Contaminants
24
Recycling Operations cont’d StepPrincipal Contaminant Functions Coarse Screening- Removal of Medium Size Particles Coarse Cleaning- Removal of Medium Heavy Contaminants Deinking- Ink Removal - Ash Removal - Small Heavy and Light Particles Removal Screening- Medium and Small Particle Removal
25
Recycling Operations cont’d StepPrincipal Contaminant Functions Cleaning: Forward- Small Heavy Particle Removal Reverse- Small Light Particle Removal Reverse- Small Light Particle Removal Color Stripping- Modification of Dyes - Lignin Conditioning - Fiber Conditioning Mechanical- To reduce the Contaminant Particle Size Usually to Below 10 Micron Dispersion- Fiber Conditioning
26
Recycling Operations cont’d StepPrincipal Contaminant Functions Chemical Dispersion- To Separate Fibers - To Reduce Contaminants Particle Size, Mainly Ink Particles - Fiber Conditioning Deflaking- To Separate Fiber Bundles - To Separate Particles From Fibers
