In this research, the effect of sodium peroxide and sodium hypochlorite on the chemical-mechanical pulp bleaching (CMP) has been investigated. For this purpose, unbleached CMP pulp was produced from Mazandaran wood and paper mill, and bleaching with hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite was carried out in two levels of 3 and 4%, during both 60 and 90 minutes in 70°C at 8% consistency. In each treatment, 30 grams of pulp with hydrogen peroxide, sodium silicate, DTPA, sodium hydroxide and sodium hypochlorite for bleaching were prepared. In the following 60 gr/m2 hand sheets were prepared and the optical properties of hand sheets were measured and analyzed based on TAPPI.The results obtained from the review of optical properties of handsheets show that by increasing the bleaching time and the level of chemicals the optical properties was improved. So that the highest brightness and minimum yellowness were observed in the 4% and 90 minutes in bleaching whit hydrogen peroxide. the lowest opacity in the control sample. Resistance properties such as tensile, burst and tear strength of bleached paper were also increased.

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.

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.

We studied the possibility of replacing imported long fiber pulp (ILFP) with kenaf bast fiber soda pulp (KBFSP) to improve the quality of paper made with bagasse soda pulp (BSP). To do so, we produced BSP with kappa number 13.5 similar to that prepared by Pars Paper Mill. We also produced KBFSP with kappa number 21.6 similar to the unbleached imported ILFP. The yield percent for BSP and KBFSP were respectively 48.9 and 55.6 %. The maximum pulping temperature was 165 °C; alkaline was 20% based on sodium hydroxide and ratio of liquor to dry weight of the raw material was 8:1. All the three pulps were beaten up to a freeness degree of 400 ml, CSF. Amounts of 0, 10, 20 and 30 percent ILFP and KBFSP were mixed with 100, 90, 80 and 70 percent BSP to produce hand sheets. In all cases of KBFSP mixing with BSP, the thickness of the generated hand sheets were higher than those produced through mixing ILFP with BSP while the density was lower. The difference in burst strength and breaking length of a mixture of 30% KBFSP with 70% BSP in the hand sheets were non-significant as compared with those of ILFP and BSP. Tear strength and opacity of mixing 30% KBFSP with 70% BSP were significantly higher than those of the ILFP and BSP with the same mixing ratio. We suggest that KBFSP provides a suitable replacement for ILFP to improve physical and strength properties of paper made with BSP.
