Background and aim: Today, with the increase in population, increasing demand for paper, as well as greater restrictions on raw materials, the production of pulp from high-yield pulps and mechanical pulps has found a special place. These pulps have a high yield greater than 85%, but due to the presence of lignin, extracts, and metal ions, their use is limited to short-term usage, as in the long run they suffer from brightness reversion and photo-yellowing. This study aimed to investigate the effect of DTPA, nano-cellulose, and nano-chitosan spray on the optical properties of chemical-mechanical pulp (CMP). Materials and methods: For this purpose, first, a quantity of bleached chemical-mechanical pulp (CMP) was selected as a control sample from Mazandaran wood and paper industry. Papers with a base weight of 60 gr/m2 were prepared from the mentioned paper pulp. In this study, the nano-fibrillated cellulose (NFC) was purchased from Nano Novin Polymer Co. (Sari, Iran), which was prepared from softwood alpha cellulose pulp with an average fiber diameter of 32 nm. The NFC was loaded at 2% by spraying onto papersheets. Nanochitosan (“Seafresh”, Thailand), obtained from exoskeletons of crustaceans, with a deacetylation degree of 93% and a molecular weight of 270 kDa was used. Nanochitosan was loaded at 1 and 2% of the dry pulp weight. Diethylene triamine penta acetic acid (DTPA) was prepared from DIPER-Samchun (South Korea), with a 50% solid content and 25 cps viscosity. To spray the DTPA onto the paper surface, 0.5% DTPA was prepared. To prepare samples for the surface modification, paper sheets with a basis weight of 60 g/m2 were made. Then, 0.5% DTPA, 2% nanochitosan, and 2% nanocellulose were sprayed separately on the papersheets. In addition, another treatment named mixed-solution (containing 0.5 % DTPA + 2% nanochitosan + 2% nanocellulose) was sprayed onto the handsheets. The spraying time and distance were 20 s and 20 cm, respectively, and the treatment process was named “spray-coated”. Then, the optical properties (brightness, opacity, yellowness, and greenness) of the hand-sheets were measured according to ASTM and TAPPI standard methods. Results:The results showed that by DTPA, nano-cellulose, and nano-chitosan spray in the handsheet paper, brightness, yellowness, greenness, L* factor, and the opacity increased and the a* factor decreased. By spraying nano-cellulose on the test samples, most of the optical properties were significantly improved except for the yellowness of the hand-sheet paper. In addition, the most appropriate properties were observed in the paper obtained from DTPA spray and also in the simultaneous spray treatment of DTPA, nano-cellulose, and nano-chitosan on hand-sheet papers. Therefore, it has caused a very sensible increase and improvement in all the optical properties, which can be selected and suggested as the best treatment. The evaluation results of the brightness reversion of the hand-sheet paper from CMP pulp showed that most of the treatments led to a relative reduction of the return of the paper brightness. On the other hand, the lowest and highest brightness return values in the hand-sheet paper were obtained from 0.5% DTPA spray and nano-chitosan spray, respectively. The evaluation results of the SEM images of the test samples compared to the control sample showed that the hand-sheet paper with nano-chitosan and nano-cellulose spray and also in the simultaneous spray treatment of DTPA, nano-cellulose, and nano-chitosan had more favorable surface and structural properties. The existence of less empty spaces (cavity) and more overlap of fibers in the test samples can be a reason for the higher quality of the properties, as well.Conclusion:The results showed that by spraying nanocellulose, nano- chitosan and DTPA on the test samples, the optical properties, brightness, greenness, opacity, a* factor, l* factor , yellowness and brightness durability improved. In addition, among the various treatments, the DTPA treatment in long-term thermal aging and the use of nano-chitosan and nano-cellulose in the short-term aging had noticeable effects on brightness durability and decrease in the color reversion. As a result, there was an increase in the durability of the paper against thermal deterioration.

The effect of applying the sequence of enzymatic treatment and refining was investigated on the properties of deinked pulp from mixed office waste paper (MOW). Refining was applied for 700 and 1500 revolutions. Enzymatic treatment was applied for 60 minutes with temperature of 60°C and 13% of consistency. Applying enzymatic treatment led to decrease in strength properties of paper and also decrease in freeness of the pulp. The refining process resulted in increase of paper properties and decrease in freeness of the pulp. By applying enzymatic treatment before refining, the freeness of pulp changed significantly so that, the freeness of the pulp was 496 and 390 for 700 and 1500 refining revolution respectively just for refining but these numbers changed to 397 and 544 for same revolutions for “enzymatic treatment + refining” sequence. In a normal condition increase of refining revolution lead to decrease in pulp freeness but that was interestingly the freeness increased for 1500 refining revolution. This means that the enzymatic treatment was effective. Generally, refining itself improved the quality parameters of pulp and paper, but applying this process after enzymatic treatment changed everything.

High yield and chemi-Mechanical pulps are susceptible to oxidation-optical and thermal reactions. These reactions result discoloration and brightness reversion in pulps. In this research, chemi-mechanical pulps were selected randomly from Mazandaran pulp and paper mill and were bleached separately by P, H, PH and HP sequences and sheets with 60 gr/m2 gramage were prepared from these bleached pulps. All the prepared papers went through thermal aging, separately at 0, 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours at 1050C in oven, and their optical properties, including, their brightness, their a, b and L factor, α exponent, yellowness, opacity, K/S ratio, and PC number before and after thermal aging were measured and compared based on TAPPI standard. The results of this study showed that, during thermal aging from 0 to 48 h, paper optical properties such as brightness, L and a factor were decreased and b factor, yellowness, α, K/S ration and PC number were increased. As a result, bleaching by P and HP sequences had the highest amount of brightness and L factor and lowest amount of a and b factor, α exponent, yellowness, K/S ratio and PC number. Therefore, these bleaching sequences had important influences on brightness stability and decrease in paper brightness reversion and increasing their durability against thermal degradation.

The objective of this study was the evaluation of optical, mechanical properties of chemi-mechanical pulp which were bleached by one and two stage bleaching sequence of hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite. Also the environmental effects of effluents from bleached paper liquor were studied. For this purpose, unbleached CMP pulp mixed of hardwoods was prepared from Mazandaran Wood and Paper mill. Then, these pulps were bleached using P (hydrogen peroxide), H (Sodium Hypochlorite), PH (Hydrogen Peroxide and Sodium Hypochlorite) and HP (Sodium Hypochlorite and hydrogen peroxide) stages. 60 gr/m2 hand sheets were prepared and the optical, mechanical properties of hand sheets and also their effluent bleaching liquor characteristics were measured and analyzed based on TAPPI and APHA Standards. The results showed that when peroxide was applied at the last stage of bleaching, then the properties such as tear, tensile and brightness have increased and yellowness has decreased. Generally, the role of single sequence of bleaching by P and two sequence of bleaching with HP were more effective than single sequence of H or unbleached pulp. Based on results, the highest and lowest COD load is related to bleaching liquor of H and PH respectively. Moreover, bleaching liquor of hydrogen peroxide had the highest BOD load and the lowest amount of BOD is related to PH sequence of bleaching.

One of the drawbacks of utilizing non-forest fast growing species of Poplar as raw materials to produce newsprint in Mazandran Pulp and Paper Mill is fairly low bulk and opacity of produced paper at the yield of 85% (current CMP yield of the Mill). In this research work, the effect of process parameters (cooking yield and freeness) on the optical and mechanical properties of chemi-mechanical pulp was investigated. The chemi-mechanical pulps of poplar was prepared at four various levels of cooking yield, through changing the cooking time, and their properties at different level of freeness were evaluated in comparison with the control sample of Mazandran Pulp and Paper Mill (75% hornbeam and 25% beech). Strength properties of the paper pulps stemmed from the cooking yields of 85.25% to 90.4% were higher and more favorable than the control sample. By contrast, the strength properties of the produced paper pulp from the cooking yield of 94.6% were inferior to prepared paper pulp from the control sample. According to the results, there is the possibility of significant improvement of the strength properties, opacity and bulk of the chemi-mechanical pulps of poplar trough controlling the process parameters like cooking yield and freeness to utilize it as raw material of newsprint production in Mazandran Pulp and Paper Mill.

Importing of wood is a solution to supplying raw material in the Iranian paper industry because of wood shortage. Therefore, the effect of mixing the imported aspen roundwood with the two hardwood native forest species including hornbeam and beech were perused on the optical and mechanical properties of CMP pulp. Cooking constant conditions consist of maximum temperature were 170 °C with a liquor-to-wood ratio (L/W) of 7, and chemical content of 20% based on the oven-dry weight of the wood chips. CMP pulps were prepared at different cooking times of 30 to 120 minutes using 20, 30, 40, 60, and 100% aspen wood in combination with the two species to achieve the yield of nearly 85%. Standard laboratory handsheets were made after pulp refining by 300 ml CSF, and then the strengths and optical properties were measured. Statistical analysis of result showed that there were significant differences among of the properties of CMP pulps by increasing the aspen wood ratio. All the properties have been improved except opacity paper. The required strength of newsprint and printing/writing paper made in Mazandaran wood and paper industries (MWPI) could be achieved by mixing of 20 and 30% imported aspen wood to the native species used in currently, respectively.

Considering the problems initiated by sodium silicate on reducing the life expectancy of processing equipments and paper strength, recycling of old newspaper using Poly (acrylic acid), Sodium Salt Grafted to Poly (ethylene oxide) complex were investigated. The organic complex was used at 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, 2 and 3% levels (based on dry weight of waste paper) in deinking. The effect of various charges of the organic complex on the physical and optical properties of deinked pulp was studied and compared with the control (ONP deinked using 0.5% sodium silicate). The results of physical properties measurements showed that the lowest paper caliper (143.07 µm) and the highest density (0.43 g/cm3) were obtained by increasing the complex charge up to 2%. Also, the highest and lowest freeness was observed applying 3% (426.66 mL CFS) and 2% (350 mL CSF) organic complex respectively. These values were less than the freeness of the control sample. The results of optical properties analysis indicated that the brightness increased to 48.01% ISO and the yellowness was reduced to 6.23 % ISO by as the dosage of organic complex was increased up to 1%. The opacity of paper decreased as the organic complex charge increased. In general, the paper with higher density and brightness, lower yellowness and suitable opacity could be produced using 0.7- 2% Poly Acrylic Acid-Sodium Salt grafted to Polyethylene Oxide complex in deinking of old newspaper

In this research, effects of mixing the birch wood with hornbeam and beach on optical and physical properties of papers produced at constant freeness range of 300 ml, CSF and yield of 85% and reference of CMP pulp (75% hornbeam plus to 25% beach) was investigated. CMP pulp was produced from birch chips at 10,20,30 and 40% content within the conditions of pulp yield:85%, liquor to dried chip ratio (L/W) of 7/1, sulfite percent of 20% on oven-dried wood chips, cooking temperature:1600C, cooking time:85-135 minutes blended with 60-90 % hornbeam and beach. After defibration and refining the cooked wood chips, the standard hand sheets of 60 g/m2 were made from different pulps and the optical and physical properties of paper produced were compared. The results from comparing the optical properties of paper showed that using up to 40% birch chips blended with hornbeam and beach led to brightness improvement and yellowness and opacity reduction compared to control CMP pulp. Increase of birch use to 30% indicated no significant effect on opacity values at confidence level of 99% compared to control CMP pulp. Utilizing 40% birch resulted in the preparation of papers with lower caliper, smoother surface and higher air resistance.

Using high consistency pulp especially in bleaching plant is highly attractive due to considerable reduction in energy and water consumptions and low effluent volume. This research investigates the effect of consistency CMP pulp on bleaching by hydrogen peroxide. For this purpose, unbleached mixed hardwood CMP pulp of Mazandaran wood and paper CO. mill was used. Bleaching was carried out with QP sequences. Pretreatment or Q stage was carried out by DTPA as a chelating agent for removing transition metals. Chelating stage had a similar condition for all pulps. bleaching with hydrogen peroxide was carried out in three levels of hydrogen peroxide 2, 3, 4% and proportion NaOH to H2O2: 0.8, 0.7, 0.6 by adding 3% sodium silicate in 70˚C and 150min at four consistency level (10, 15, 25 and 30%). After bleaching, handsheets were made with grammage 60gr/m2 from bleached pulp. The experimental results showed that high brightness and opacity and lower yellowness was obtained at 30% consistency by 2 and 3% peroxide charge. However, by using 4% hydrogen peroxide, higher brightness and lower yellowness attained at 25% consistency. Brightness is increased continuously by increasing consistency from 10 to 30% at 2, 3% peroxide. But at 4% peroxide charge, brightness is increased from 10, 15 and 25%, and then at 30% consistency is decreased significantly. Also under conditioning of 2% peroxide and 30% consistency and 2% peroxide at 25% consistency can obtain similar brightness to 3% peroxide and 25% consistency and 4% peroxide at 10% consistency. That it means of 25, 30% decrease in consumption peroxide and sodium hydroxide.
