Abstract

Aim
of study: It was our aim to produce fireproof papers from
Turkish Red Pine (Pinus brutia Ten.)
using eco-friendly pulping method and fire retardant chemicals (FR).

Area
of study: This work was carried out in Kahramanmaraş Sütçü Imam
University, Faculty of Forestry, Pulp and Paper Production Laboratory.

Material
and Methods: Three different pulping trials were carried out with
soda-anthraquinone method (AQ) and the kappa numbers, viscosities, yields, and
optical and physical properties of the pulps were determined in order to find
out the optimum cooking condition. Borax (BX), boric acid (BA), alpha-x (AX),
and ammonium polyphosphate (APP) were used as FR in certain rates (3, 6, 9%).
FR applied papers were subjected to combustion test and the fire properties of
the papers were determined as combustion rate.

Main
results:
The results indicated that addition of AQ to cooking liquor increased the pulp
yield about 4.6%. Also, the kappa numbers of the pulps were decreased by adding
AQ from 120 to 50. AQ addition had significantly effects on the physical
properties of the paper. The best results in fire properties were obtained from
BX (6%, 9%), BA (6%, 9%), and AX (9%), respectively.

Research
highlights: Considering paper is a flammable material,
increasing the fire resistance of papers is needed. In addition, production
using environmentally friendly methods is required in the world where
population and technology are increasing rapidly.

Özet

Çalışmanın
amacı: Bu çalışmanın amacı, yanmayı geciktirici kimyasallar ve
çevre dostu yöntemler kullanarak kızılçam odunlarından (Pinus brutia Ten.) yanmaya karşı dirençli kağıtlar üretmektir.

Çalışmanın
alanı: Bu çalışma Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam Üniversitesi, Orman
Fakültesi, Kağıt Hamuru ve Kağıt Üretim Laboratuvarı'nda yürütülmüştür.

Materyal
ve Yöntem: Soda-Antrakinon (AQ) metodu kullanarak 3 farklı pişirme
yapılmış ve optimum koşulu belirlemek için elde edilen kağıt hamurlarının
fiziksel ve optik özellikleri, kappa numaraları, viskozite ve hamur verimleri
tespit edilmiştir. Boraks (BX), borik asit (BA), alfa-x (AX) ve amonyum
polifosfat (APP) yanmayı geciktirici kimyasallar üretilen kağıtların alt ve üst
yüzeylerine belirli oranlarda (%3, 6, 9) uygulanmıştır. Bu kimyasalların
uygulandığı kağıtlar yanma testine tabi tutulmuş ve yanma oranları
belirlenmiştir.

Sonuçlar: Elde
edilen sonuçlara göre pişirme çözeltisine AQ ilavesi ile kağıt hamuru veriminde
yaklaşık %4.6 oranında artış gerçekleşmiştir. Ayrıca, kappa numarası 120’den
50’ye düşmüştür. AQ ilavesi fiziksel özellikleri önemli derecede etkilerken
optik özellikler üzerinde etkili olmamıştır. Yanmaya karşı en iyi direnç
özelliklerini sırasıyla BX (%6, %9), BA (%6, %9) ve AX (%9) ilaveli kağıtlar
vermiştir.

Araştırma
Vurguları: Kağıt alev alabilen bir malzeme olduğu için yanmaya karşı
direncinin arttırılması gerekmektedir. Buna ek olarak, nüfus ve teknolojinin
hızla arttığı dünyada çevre dostu yöntemler kullanarak kağıt hamuru üretimi
yapılmasına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
