Abstract:
      The purpose of this study was to find out the correlation mechanism between the strength properties of paper made of cellulose-based OCC secondary fibers and the viscosity, average molecular weight, and amylopectin content of starch glue obtained by amylase enzymatic hydrolysis. It was determined the most suitable range of starch glue parameters to improve the strength properties of paper, so as to provide guidance for paper mills to achieve rapid enzymatic hydrolysis and meet sizing agent requirements. The results showed that the corn starch glue solution obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis at a holding temperature of 78 ℃ and α-amylase dosage of 0.10~2.00 U/g (50~1 000 mL/t) could increase the strength properties (tensile strength and ring-crush-resistance) of the single-sized paper by over 15% compared to the base paper, and the average molecular weight, amylopectin content, and viscosity of starch glue were 2×104~4.3×105 g/mol, 56%~77%, and 3.35~138.26 mPa·s, respectively. In order to be suitable for continuous sizing in paper mills, the range of viscous average molecular weight, amylopectin content, and viscosity of starch glue solution should be further reduced, which were 1.3×105~2.7×105 g/mol, 63%~76%, and 10~30 mPa·s, respectively. At the same time, the correlation between enzymatic hydrolysis time and starch glue parameters and paper strength enhancement showed that under conditions of α-amylase dosage 0.24 U/g (120 mL/t) and hydrolysis time of 10 min, the starch glue solution exhibited optimal paper strength enhancement effects, with tensile strength and ring-crush-resistance of paper increasing by 21.2% and 26.4% respectively compared to the corrugated base paper. The viscosity, amylopectin content, and viscous average molecular weight of starch glue were all in line with the inference interval.
