Abstract
Dissolved and colloidal substances in mill waters are known to have
effect on retention and drainage in the wet end of a paper machine and on the
properties of dry paper. The effects of these substances on wet paper in
laboratory scale were studied in this paper. The pulp studied was bleached
softwood kraft pulp. The properties of the wet paper were measured using
standard and high speed strain rate. The tension holding capacity has been
found to be a good indicator for runnability of wet paper.
The results show that the surface tension of white water varied according to
the chemicals used. The surface tension of the deionized water dropped
considerably during the recirculation due to the colloidal and dissolved
materials released from the chemical pulp.
