  • Patent number: 8992708
    Abstract: Described is the use of synthetic adhesives in the manufacture of corrugated fiberboard at relatively low temperatures and high lineal speeds. The corrugated fiberboard includes a corrugated sheet of paper and a flat linerboard and the corrugation of the corrugated sheet of paper is produced at paper temperatures below 95° C. and at a lineal speed above 150 m/min. The production of the corrugation of a corrugated sheet of paper is immediately followed by a continuous operation in which a preferably unheated corrugated board adhesive is applied and the corrugated sheet of paper is adhered to at least one first linerboard. The corrugated board adhesive used is an aqueous adhesive dispersion based on at least one synthetic, dispersed polymer having preferably more than 40% by weight solids content, selected from acrylate copolymers, copolymers of vinylaromatics and conjugated aliphatic dienes and vinyl acetate-alkylene copolymers, wherein the glass transition temperatures of the polymers are above 20° C.

  • Patent number: 8926797
    Abstract: Process for the production of paper, board and cardboard having high dry strength by addition of (a) at least one trivalent cation in the form of a salt, (b) at least one water-soluble cationic polymer and (c) at least one water-soluble amphoteric polymer to the paper stock, draining of the paper stock with sheet formation and subsequent drying of the paper products, the water-soluble cationic polymer (b) being selected from the group consisting of the (i) polymers comprising vinylamine units and (ii) polymers comprising ethylenimine units.

  • Publication number: 20100000693
    Abstract: A process for the production of a multilayer fiber web from cellulose fibers by separately feeding at least two different fiber suspensions and water into a multilayer headbox, in which they are separated by separating elements from one another and from water and, after leaving the nozzle mouth of the headbox, reach an apparatus on which a web is formed, the water being transported in such a way that, after emerging from the nozzle mouth, it reaches the web-forming apparatus in the form of a layer between two layers of fiber suspensions and thus counteracts mixing of the different fiber suspensions, wherein, for improving the retention, drainage and formation, at least one retention aid and/or at least one drainage aid are metered into the fiber suspensions and/or into the water fed in.
