  • anti-freeze agents such as anti-foaming agents
  • composition of the invention may be obtained, for example, by intensive mixing of the FWA of formula (1), either in the form of a moist filter-cake or a dry powder, with water under high shear forces, subsequently, adding a pre-dispersion of hectorite and/or vermiculite in water and, finally stirring until a homogeneous mixture results, optionally, in the presence of appropriate adjuvants.
  • compositions are stable to storage over longer periods of time, for example, 6 months, even at temperatures ranging from 0° C. to 40° C.
  • composition of the present invention it has been found that it is possible to increase the whiteness of a lignin-containing pulp by a process which comprises adding to an aqueous slurry comprising a lignin-containing pulp, during pulp manufacture, prior to the drying step or paper making step if the pulp is not isolated, an effective amount of an FWA.
  • the FWA composition can be added to the aqueous slurry comprising the lignin-containing pulp at any processing step, to minimize losses, it is advantageously added in the latter stages of pulp manufacture, prior to the final de-watering and drying steps. Preferably it is added after completion of the last bleaching step.
  • a lignin-containing pulp any pulp that still contains about 5% or more of lignin by weight on a dry basis.
  • lignin is that portion of the pulp which is insoluble in 72 weight percent sulfuric acid. Suitable test procedures for lignin content are given in TAPPI T 223 and ASTM D 1106.
  • the composition of this invention is useful to produce significant whitening of chemical pulps as well as pulps containing up to 100% of mechanical fibre.
  • the composition can be employed, e.g. in lignin-free pulps, such as certain bleached kraft pulps, up to and including higher lignin content pulps such as thermomechanical pulps, bleached chemi-thermomechanical pulps (CTMP), and even deinked bleached thermomechanical pulps.
  • the pulps contain at least 10% of lignin by weight on a dry weight basis; most preferably they contain at least 15%.
  • the range of brightness that can be obtained varies from about 50 to 90+ depending on starting pulp brightness and the type of pulp employed.
  • Addition of the composition of the invention to the pulp mass may be performed at any step of the paper-making process, but preferably is performed shortly before the head box.
  • chelating agents in processes to bleach pulps from mechanical pulping processes. See V. N. Gupta, Pulp Paper Mag. Can., 71 (18), T391-399 (1970).
  • the addition of a chelating agent to an aqueous pulp slurry controls the natural yellowing tendency of glucuronic acids, extractives and lignin present in the pulp by removing or minimizing iron and other heavy metals such as copper, zinc and manganese metals that catalyze color-forming side reactions.
  • the iron and other heavy metals are converted into the form of their highly soluble chelates and largely removed In the de-watering steps. This decreases the incorporation of the heavy metal ions into the pulp.
  • the chelating agent sequesters the salts of iron and other heavy metals which remain and which, in their own right would otherwise relax the excited state of FWA's and render them ineffective.
  • chelating agents are suitable in the present invention, i.e. those that offer thermodynamic or kinetic control of metal ions. However preference is given to chelating agents that offer thermodynamic control, that is, chelating agents that form a stable, isolable, complex with a heavy metal ion. Within this group it is particularly preferred to use aminocarboxylic acid chelates.
  • Well known and commercially available members of this class include ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), hydroxyethylethylenediaminetriacetic acid (HEDTA) and nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA).
  • thermodynamic and kinetic-controlling chelating agents e.g. citrates, keto acids, gluconates, heptagluconates, phosphates, and phosphonates
  • thermodynamic and kinetic-controlling chelating agents also work well in reducing the content of free heavy metal ions in the pulp to acceptable levels.
  • kinetic-controlling chelating agents are also commercially available.
  • Kinetic controlling chelating agents are those which do not form a stable, isolable, complex with a heavy metal ion.
  • compositions according to the present invention may also be applied to the paper substrate in the form of a paper coating composition or directly in the size press.

  • the paper coating compositions used according to the method of the present invention preferably contain 10 to 70% by weight of a white pigment.

Comparably high degrees of whiteness are thus achieved even at low drying temperatures.
