2012 TAPPI ProducTS And ServIceS GuIde 7 Welcome to TAPPI’s 2012 Products and Services Guide

Industry-leading information and quality educational opportunities have been the mainstay of TAPPI’s mission for nearly 100 years. As we draw closer to our centennial anniversary in 2015, it is clear these core assets continue to grow and strengthen. TAPPI has built on this foundation to become the preeminent resource for scienti c, technical and management information for the paper, pulp, packaging and converting industries. I am particularly pleased each year to share with you the Products and Services Guide as it continues our tradition of sharing information in a clear, easy-to-digest format. The 2012 edition breaks new ground in TAPPI Journal content, covering for the rst time emerging areas of signi cant interest, including nanotechnology, paper physics and biore nery. As always, you will nd premier scienti c content succinctly captured in individual abstracts, cataloged not only by topic but author as well. I encourage you to keep the Guide handy throughout the coming years as a quick go-to tool and handy reference guide when searching for complete content via TAPPI’s comprehensive e-library. Also, please don’t forget to check out the list of specialty committees and divisions that members can join to make the most of their TAPPI experience. Getting involved is the one sure way to enhance access to knowledge, news and networking. Your company might also consider the many bene ts of becoming a sustaining member, joining those industry leaders listed on 34. Our newest TAPPI PRESS publications and 2012 coming events, all designed to meet the ongoing educational and informational needs of our industry, are also listed. Last but certainly not least, I’d like to thank those organizations which appear in the 2012 Guide.

To investigate, and minimize, (125°C-160°C). At high alkali charges (10% and 20% hydroxide the formation of those sticky deposits, we collected deposit samples from a [NaOH] as sodium oxide [Na2O]), the extract was strongly alkaline (pH about supercalender stack and analyzed them for their chemical compositions, metal 13) and 17%-40% of the wood was dissolved. Subsequent kraft cooking of the contents, and thermal properties. Acetone soluble substances, which were extracted chips yielded 5%-7% less pulp than that of control kraft pulps. However, considered as pitch or wood extractives, were shown to account for the majority at reduced alkali charge, just suf cient to approximately neutralize the acids of these deposit samples. The thermogravimetric analyzer gave the result that, released during pre-extraction, the pulp yield (on original wood) after subsequent for the deposit sample, the mass loss due to heating in the temperature range kraft pulping was not affected. In this case, about 5%-10% of the wood of 50ºC–200ºC was less than 5%. Gas chromatography results showed similar substance is removed during pre-extraction with 3% NaOH or 3% chemistry for the deposit samples both before and after the thermogravimetric (+0.05% ) at 140°C and 160°C for 60, 90, and 110 min. The analyzer analysis. Throughout the mill process, a large portion of wood extractives green liquor extract obtained after 110 min at 160°C contained 2.1% (oven-dry passed through the thermomechanical and into the paper mill with weight basis) of sugars, 2.1% acetic acid, and 1.6% accounting for 64% the pulp streams. Two control programs, detacki cation versus xation, were of the wood weight loss. Kraft pulping of the pre-extracted wood chips performed compared to evaluate their ability to decrease the extractives-related deposit at 12% effective alkali charge showed signi cantly improved deligni cation rates formation on the supercalendering stack. and approximately the same or slightly higher yield than the kraft control at 15% Application: Pitch-related deposit formation can be reduced in a effective alkali.

Unscheduled lter replacement due to lter plugging results in signi cant costs and may result in PRINTING mill downtime. We identi ed acid-insoluble lter-plugging materials by scanning electron microscope/energy-dispersion X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) and X-ray Analysis of the shortness of offset ink as a function of tack on paper diffraction (XRD) analysis in both polypropylene and Gore-Tex™ membrane lter by comparing elastic and Hencky strain extension socks.

We carried out detailed sample analysis of both the standard the extensional length of an offset ink and its lm split tack behavior related acid-washing procedure and a modi ed procedure. Filter plugging by gypsum to the blanket paper ink lm separation on a press. Two separation techniques and metal sul des appeared to occur because of the acid-washing procedure. were used to study these phenomena separately: constant force and thus Gypsum formation on the lter resulted from signi cant hydrolysis of sulfamic varying acceleration, giving sensitivity biased toward ink length; and constant acid solution at temperatures greater than 130°F. Modi cation of the extensional strain rate (Hencky strain rate), giving sensitivity biased toward acid-washing procedure greatly reduced the amount of gypsum and addition ink on paper tack and viscosity. In general, high intrinsic ink tack level seems of a to the acid reduced wash time and mobilized some of the carbon to correspond to high ink on paper tack value. Both methods identify the tack from the lter. With surfactant, acid washing was 95% complete after 40 min. cycle as ink oil is removed by capillary action into the substrate. The extensional Application: By modifying acid-washing procedures, process engineers can strain rate matches more closely the lm splitting effect of the print cylinders, reduce costs of pressure lter operation by increasing the time between acid identifying effects of extensional viscosity.

The results show that at a given distance, the force produced by the sootblower jet increases almost linearly with an increase in lance pressure. At a given lance pressure, the jet force decreases rapidly as the distance increases, retaining less than 10% of its original strength at a distance beyond 1 m from the nozzle. The results also suggest that  ue gas Bill McLean Director temperatures in the vicinity of the sootblower have an insigni cant effect on sootblower performance, and that the sootblowing jet force exerted on a tube target can  uctuate widely, particularly at a close distance. Force  uctuations are caused mainly by the vibration of the target as it is struck by the jet. The change in jet strength is caused by platen swinging and the tremor of the system that holds the target.

In 1915, thirty enterprising papermakers gathered together determined to form a new technical arm of the American Paper & Pulp Association (APPA). Their idea was to gather and disseminate information concerning matters which have to do with production. This forward thinking group wanted to create a forum where information could be channeled and ideas could be exchanged. In less than a year, TAPPI was born and more than 95 years later, their formula for success continues to work.
