Abstract
This study was carried out to acquire basic data necessary for the use of rice-straw chemical pulp. It investigated the proper bleaching conditions when rice-straw chemical pulp(alkaline sulfite-${Na_2}{S_2}{O_4}$) was bleached using the various kinds of bleaching agents by the two-stages bleaching methods. And, physical properties of pulps bleached with eight kinds of two-stages bleaching methods were tested. The results of this study were as follow; 1. The first-stage bleaching was conducted under the proper conditions with chlorine(C). And then, the proper conditions related to the calcium chlorite(H), hydrogen peroxide(P) and sodium hydrosulfite(Y) bleaching as the second-stage bleaching were investigated. The proper conditions of CH stage were determined to be 0.3% concentration of calcium chlorite, $30^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 20min. of reaction time. For CP stage, the proper conditions of concentration of hydrogen peroxide, reaction temperature and reaction time were 1.5%, $60^{\circ}C$ and 90min., respectively. And for CY stage, the proper conditions were 0.5% concentration of sodium hydrosulfite, $40^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 90min. of reaction time. 2. The first-stage bleaching was conducted under the proper conditions with chlorine dioxide(D). And then, the proper conditions related to the calcium chlorite(H), hydrogen peroxide(P) and sodium hydrosulfite(Y) bleaching as the second-stage bleaching were investigated. The proper conditions of DH stage were determined to be 0.5% concentration of calcium chlorite, $25^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 5min. of reaction time. For DP stage, the proper conditions of concentration of hydrogen peroxide, reaction temperature and reaction time were 1.0%, $70^{\circ}C$ and 90min., respectively. And for DY stage, the proper conditions were 0.3% concentration of sodium hydrosulfite, $50^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 20min. of reaction time. 3. The first-stage bleaching was conducted under the proper conditions with calcium chlorite(H). kAnd then, the proper conditions related to the hydrogen peroxide(P) and sodium hydrosulfite(Y) bleaching as the second-stage bleaching were investigated. The proper conditions of HP stage were determined to be 0.3% concentration of hydrogen peroxide, $30^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 60min. of reaction time. For HY stage, the proper conditions of concentration of sodium hydrosulfite, reaction temperature and reaction time were 2.5%, $60^{\circ}C$ and 30min., respectively. 4. When the rice-straw chemical pulps were bleached with eight kinds of two-stages bleaching methods in the proper conditions mentioned above, respectively, the final brightnesses after CH, CP, CY, DH, DP, DY, HP, and HY bleachings were 62.0, 74.3, 61.4, 58.9, 66.9, 62.9, 50.4 and 60.1, respectively. And strengthes of pulps bleached with DP and DH methods were comparatively higher than those of pulps bleached with other bleaching methods.
