Progress of Inorganic Filler Composite Pulp for High Performance Papers

On the Utilization of Fiber Lumen Loading and Micropore Loading

Abstract

This review is of the research and development of inorganic filler composite pulps prepared by either lumen loading or micropore loading. These composite pulps are not only valuable for high performance paper but also suitable for environmental harmony due to its biodegradability and recyclability.
This paper reports four kind of pulp and papers, i. e. (1) fiber lumen loaded with titanium dioxide by high turbulence (2) fiber lumen loaded with ferrite by high turbulence (3) fiber lumen loaded with ferrite by in situ chemical reaction and (4) fiber micropore loaded with nickel carbonate and calcium carbonate by precipitation method.
It was suggested that the inorganic filler composite pulps should be of practical use for high performance papers in the future.
