Retention of Optical Brightening Agents (OBA) and their Brightening Efficiency on HYP‐Containing Paper Sheets

Abstract: Optical brightening agents (OBA) or fluorescent whitening agents (FWA) are commonly used in the paper industry to improve the optical performance of paper products. The increased use of bleached chemi-thermo-mechanical pulp (BCTMP) or high-yield pulp (HYP) in printing and writing paper grades has initiated research topics on the brightening efficiency of OBA on mechanical pulp-containing furnishes. In this study, process parameters that may affect the retention of OBA were investigated, such as furnish composi… Show more

“…Ou seja, o alvejante aumenta o comprimento de onda da radiação UV incidente refletindo-a como radiação visível. mais eficiente é o tratamento com alvejante (ZHANG et al, 2007b). Quanto ao tipo de polpa, os alvejantes têm menos afinidade às polpas de alto rendimento do que à polpa química (ZHANG et al, 2007b).…”

“…[6,[10][11] An earlier study showed that the OBA brightening process can be conveniently incorporated into the alkaline peroxide bleaching process. [12] This approach has several advantages over the conventional method, whereby, OBA is added in the wet end of the papermaking process.…”

“…The presence of cations such as Ca 2+ in the white water can increase the OBA retention. Also, a higher temperature and longer time of OBA with pulp fibers improved the OBA retention [11].…”

“…It has been reported that the brightening efficiency of OBA is determined by its retention and effectiveness on pulp fibers [9,10]. The retention of OBA is affected by the types of OBA, fixing agents, temperature and contact time [11]. The presence of cations such as Ca 2+ in the white water can increase the OBA retention.…”
