In this study, the effect of elimination and relative decrease of sodium silicate along with substituting the organic complex of sulvy-x was investigated on optical properties of CMP pulp bleached by hydrogen peroxide. The brightness of paper were increased to 66.8%, yellowness decreased to 22% and opacity decreased to 80% with increase in sodium silicate charge from 0.7% to 3%. Also, with complete elimination of sodium silicate and using of sulvy-x at different levels of 0.4, 0.5, 0.7 and 1% , highest brightness and lowest yellowness were shown at 0.5% sulvy-x. These values were 66.1% and 21.8%, respectively. The brightness of paper enhanced from 61.2% to 67.3% with increasing of sulvy-x charge from 0.4% up to 0.5% blended with constant value of 0.7% sodium silicate. But the brightness decreased at higher levels. Generally, pretreatment by DTPA prepared the paper with lower brightness and higher yellowness at two different states namely silicate-free and silicate-containing with sulvy-x. Pretreatment by DTPA at silicate-free state led to decrease of opacity but at silicate-containing state terminated to improve of opacity values. Increasing of bleaching time up to 120 minutes resulted in the paper with higher brightness, higher opacity and lower yellowness at silicate containing state with sulvy-x. At silicate-free state, increasing of bleaching time up to 120 minutes led to improve of opacity while brightness improved and yellowness reduced with increase in bleaching time to 90 minutes. Also, the brightness of paper decreased at higher times (120 minutes) and yellowness increased. In conclusion, achieved results from comparison of optical properties of paper produced from peroxide bleaching of hardwood CMP pulp indicated that we could produce the paper with desirable or even better optical properties by replacing of sulvy-x rather than sodium silicate compared to conventional peroxide bleaching.

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.

In this study, the effect of organic complex "sulvy-x" on the optical properties of hornbeam CMP pulp bleached with hydrogen peroxide was investigated. Sulvy-x was used in two sequences silicate-free and silicate containing in hydrogen peroxide bleaching. The brightness of papers increased to 60.52 and the yellowness decreased to 22.6 with increasing silicate charges up to 1% . However, at higher levels than 1% , the brightness decreased and the yellowness increased. Without dosage of sodium silicate but using 0.5% of sulvy-x, maximum brightness of 59.3% and minimum yellowness of 23.4 % ISO was achieved. In silicate-containing bleaching, combination of 0.5% sulvy-x and 0.7% sodium silicate resulted the highest brightness (60.28 % ISO) and the lowest yellowness (23 % ISO). Optimum charge of sodium hydroxide and hydrogen peroxide were determined as 2.5% and 5%.The best time for bleaching of hornbeam CMP pulp was 90 minutes in either sequences. With regard to results obtained, utilization of the organic complex of sulvy-x could be a suitable substitution for sodium silicate which produces the pulp with higher brightness and lower yellowness in conventional peroxide bleaching.

This research was accomplished in order to investigate the replacement of organic complex of Glanapone Stab with sodium silicate on optical properties of hardwood CMP pulp bleached by hydrogen peroxide. The highest brightness of 65.5% and the lowest yellowness of 21.6% was attained at silicate-free followed by replacement of 0.7% and 1.5% Glanapone. But the highest opacity 98.2% was gained using 0.5% glanapone. The brightness of paper increased to 68.1% and the yellowness decreased to 20.8. by adding of glanapone consumption from 0.4% to 0.5% in blended with 0.7% sodium silicate. At higher levels than 0.5% glanapone, the brightness of paper decreased and the yellowness increased. Using Higher levels of 1 and 1.5% glanapone in blended with 0.7% sodium silicate resulted the highest opacity 97.9% and 98%, respectively. Increasing of peroxide usage up to 5% at two different states of silicate-free and silicate-containing with glanapone resulted in the paper with higher brightness and lower yellowness and opacity. CMP pulps bleached at 120 minutes resulted the highest brightness of 71.1% and the lowest yellowness of 18.3% at silicate-containing state with glanapone. Maximum opacity of 98.3% and 98% were shown at bleaching time 30 minutes at two states silicate-free and silicate-containing state with glanapone, respectively. In this research with regard to optical properties in relation to paper produced from CMP pulp bleaching at two states silicate-free and silicate-containing with glanapone,it can be said that possibility of producing the paper with similar optical properties or even better using 0.7% or 1.5% at silicate-free is in compared to conventional hydrogen peroxide bleaching. Also, we could produce the paper with higher brightness along with lower yellowness and similar opacity followed by bleaching time of 120 minutes and hydrogen peroxide 5% in combination of 0.7% sodium silicate with 0.5% glanapone in compared to higher consumed values of sodium silicate.
