Deflocculation of Cellulosic Suspensions with Anionic High Molecular Weight Polyelectrolytes
Pulp fibers have a strong tendency to form flocs in water suspensions, which may cause their undesirable distribution in the paper sheets. This flocculation can be controlled by adding, e.g., an anionic high molecular weight polyelectrolyte in the fiber suspension. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of anionic polyelectrolytes on deflocculation kinetics, dewatering, and r...
متن کاملPreparation Zirconia Toughened Alumina by Deflocculation-Flocculation Route (TECHNICAL NOTE).
Partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) agglomerate toughened alumina has been prepared by the "deflocculation-flocculation" technique, using 2 and 3 mol. % Y2O3-doped zirconia powders. Samples containing up to about 30 vol.% zirconia were obtained. The resulting microstructure seems to be mainly influenced by the physical properties of the starting powders, e.g. agglomerate size and the specific s...
متن کاملFlocculation and Redispersion of Cellulosic Fiber Suspensions: a Review of Effects of Hydrodynamic Shear and Polyelectrolytes
Cellulosic fibers in aqueous suspensions are subject to flocculation effects that involve two contrasting scales of dimension. The net effect of flocculation determines how uniformly fibers can become formed into a sheet during the manufacture of paper. At a macroscopic level, the highly elongated shape of typical wood-derived fibers in agitated suspensions can give rise to frequent inter-fiber...
متن کاملEffect of charge balance and dosage of polyelectrolyte complexes on the shear resistance of mineral floc strength and reversibility.
We evaluated the effect of polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) with varying balance of charges on the flocculation of precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) particles. PECs composed of polyacrylamides carrying opposite charges (A-PAM and C-PAM) were investigated in terms of PCC floc shear resistance and re-flocculation effects. Light transmission was used in real time to monitor the dynamics of flocc...
متن کاملSelective Flocculation for Coal De Mineralization
Selective flocculation has long been suggested as a method for the treatment of ultra-fine particles typical of which are those produced in a de-sliming process ahead of flotation. In this paper the results of the coal de-mineralization, using synthetic polyacrylamide polymers, are presented. A prescreening test on the suitability of the polymers using Run-Of-Mine (R.O.M.) coal and artificial m...
