Properties of pulp fibers can be modified by LbL multilayering technology. We evaluated the effect of stock composition on the polyelectrolyte multilayering performance of pulp fibers in this study. Stock composition was varied with pulp type and fines content. Three types of pulp-Hw-BKP, BCTMP and KOCC-were treated with polyelectrolytes of poly-DADMAC and PSS. Fines content of stock were controlled at 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%. Zeta potential of pulp fibers and charge demand of filtrate were evaluated. The highest adsorption ratio was obtained for BCTMP because of its shortest fiber length and highest specific surface area. Higher fines content in the stock increased the adsorption ratio of polyelectrolyte onto pulp fiber and it required a higher amount of polyelectrolyte for charge neutralization. For the pulp stock with higher fines content, a higher level of polyelectrolyte and the increased layer number were required to modify and stabilize the electrochemical properties of pulp fibers.

This study was carried out to acquire basic data for the bleaching of bamboo chemical pulp. Bamboo chemical pulps (alkaline sulfite (AS)-anthraquinone (AQ) pulp, Kraft pulp) were bleached with two kinds of multistage bleaching methods (CEDED, PDED) using the various kinds of bleaching agents. And, physical properties of bleached pulps were investigated. The conclusions obtained from the results were as follows; The yield of AS-AQ pulp bleached with four-stages bleaching method using the hydrogen peroxide and chlorine dioxide as a bleaching agents was higher than the other bleached pulps. The brightness of kraft pulp bleached with five-stages bleaching method using the chlorine and chlorine dioxide as a bleaching agents was higher than the other bleached pulps. The physical properties of kraft pulp bleached with four-stages bleaching method using the hydrogen peroxide and chlorine dioxide as a bleaching agents was higher than the other bleached pulps.

Soda-AQ pulp made from sugarcane bagasse (SCB) were bleached in element chlorine free (ECF) sequence. To reduce chlorine dioxide use, final peroxide bleaching was introduced. Prior to peroxide bleaching, different chelating chemicals were applied for comparative analysis in ISO brightness and viscosity. When using equal total chlorine dioxide usage (4.5%), bleached SCB pulp using chelate and hydrogen peroxide (DEDQP) was reached 86.8% (DTPA), 86.4% (EDTA) ISO brightness, whereas bleached pulp using only hydrogen peroxide (DEDP) reached at 81.2% ISO brightness. Viscosity of DEDQP bleached pulp was 25.6 cPs (DTPA), 25.2 cPs (EDTA), And DEDP bleached pulp was shown 18.0 cPs viscosity. Decreasing of transition metal by chelate process led to improvements in final brightness along with higher viscosity. Due to EDTA is 5-7 times cheaper than DTPA, EDTA is recommended as chelating chemical prior to peroxide bleaching.

Filler loading at thick stock was carried out in order to verify if the dual addition of filler can be used as a means to reduce the detrimental effects of filler on the strength properties of paper. PCC was added to 3.5% pulp slurry blended with HwBKP, BCTMP and SwBKP. Cationic starch was used as a fixing agent. The mixture of PCC and pulp was stirred for 5, 10 and 20min. at 1,000 rpm. The remaining PCC was washed out before handsheet making. PCC particles were flocculated and fixed on the pulp fiber and/or space between fibers. It is expected that the flocculation and inclusion of PCC can be helpful to improve the strength properties of paper due to the reduction of detrimental effect in fiber bonding. The distinct tendency in PCC flocculation and fixing on pulp fiber was not observed by the change of cationic starch dosage and treatment time.

Xylan in hemicellulose has been reported as one of the reasons of the yellowing of chemical pulp and paper. But little relevant information is available in literature. In this study, we examined into the influence that glucuronoxylan or glucomannan and metallic ion($Cu^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Fe^{3+},\;Mn^{2+}$) residued in pulp get each or when mixed at yellowing. Filter paper was treated with each metallic ion, glucuronoxylan and the mixture of glucuronoxylan and metal ions, and brightness and CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ was measured after accelerated aging. As the results of measurements, the filter paper processed by 10% glucuronoxylan was dropped $2{\sim}3%$ on the brightness after accelerated aging for 24 hours. Also, the filter paper treated with glucuronoxylan and $Fe^{2+}$ was dropped 7% on the brightness.

Generally, aging of paper is evaluated by folding endurance and degree of yellowing. It was known as that lignin, hemicellulose and metallic ion affect yellowing of mechanical or chemical pulps. Among these elements, especially, the study of hemicellulose that affect at yellowing of pulp is insufficient. In this study, we examined into the influence that glucuronoxylan or glucomannan and metallic ion($Cu^{2+},\;Fe^{2+},\;Fe^{3+},Mn^{2+}$) residued in pulp get each or when mixed at yellowing. Filter paper was treated with each metallic ion, glucuronoxylan and the mixture of glucuronoxylan and metal ions, and brightness and CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ was measured after accelerated aging. As the results of measurements, the filter paper processed by 10% glucuronoxylan was dropped 2-3% on the brightness after accelerated aging for 24 hours. Also, the filter paper treated with glucuronoxylan and $Fe^{2+}$ was dropped 7% on the brightness.

This paper presents an overview of ONP deinking efficiency with cellulolytic enzymes and synthetic collector in alkaline pH. Deinking is a series of unit operations designed to detach ink from cellulose fibers and separate the dispersed ink from the pulp slurry. Deinking chemicals are process aids that enable expensive mill equipment used in these unit operations to operate more efficiently - often much more efficiently. We propose the blended deinking agent with cellulolutic enzymes and synthetic collector in deinking pulp of conventional alkaline method. The deinking efficiency of old news print in alkaline pH was enhanced with enzyme treatments. The brightness of deinked pulp was increased with less residual ink particles and yield of enzymatic deinked pulp was improved compared to the deinked pulp of conventional alkaline method.

Various approaches have been tried to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide in paper industry. One of important approaches is to use PCC manufactured from emission gas as a filler. However, it was recognized that PCC is inferior to other fillers in the paper strength properties of view. Therefore, pretreatment of PCC with pulp powder was tried to mitigate the strength reduction of paper. Pretreatment of PCC with pulp powder improved the bulk(7.4~12.9%) and air permeability(24.8~42.98%), but there is no significant change in opacity. Tensile index, burst index and stiffness were decreased by the use of pretreated PCC with pulp powder. Anionic and cationic PAM were used as a additive for PCC pretreatment in order to improve strength properties. There was no significant change in bulk in all kinds of PAM used in this study. Most strength properties were improved by the pretreatment of PCC with the anionic and cationic PAM and pulp powder, although the opacity and stiffness were more or less decreased.
