本来,包装用板紙抄紙は特にライナーと中芯では歩留り剤として硫酸バンドとロジンサイズを使う酸性システムとなっている。しかし現在,ライナーや中芯はロジンサイズからAKDまたはASAへと変わってきている。これはウェットエンドシステムを酸性から中性へ変更しなければならないことを意味している。この課題を解決するためには多くの問題に直面し,その解決方法を検討する必要がある。なぜ古紙原料板紙製造は世界的に酸性から中性へ変化しているのか?酸性から中性へシステムを移行するとき変更しなければならない必要な点は何か?古紙原料板紙製造において歩留り,中性サイズコントロールをどの様に実現するのか?中性板紙製造のポイントは再生古紙の中の炭酸カルシウムが増えると,古紙原料板紙システムが酸性から中性へと変化する傾向に選択の余地はない。もし酸性から中性へ抄紙マシンを変更すれば多くの利点があり製造コストの削減にもつながる。その上,ロジンの高い原料コストと予期しない供給サポート問題の点からも,酸性から中性への抄紙システム変更が求められる。2剤併用液体歩留プログラムは歩留り,濾水および強度特性のバランスを取りつつ,コス...
