Definitions
- This invention relates to the treatment of aqueou paper stocks for the purpose of preventing foaming during the paper-making operations.
- an object of this invention to prepare an anti-foaming agent which does not 2 tially saponified fatty acids are preferable.
- the addition of an alkali is thus desirable to saponify some of the acid.
- the higher fatty acids include the well-known examples found in fats, such as have a deleterious effect on the paper sizing resulting in loss of water resistance. 7
- the process which comprises incorporating in the aqueous paper stock an antifoaming agent containing an alkyd resin, and an emulsifying agent, preferably a higher fatty acid plus an alkali.
- an antifoaming agent containing an alkyd resin preferably a higher fatty acid plus an alkali.
- an emulsifying agent preferably a higher fatty acid plus an alkali.
- Any of the ordinary alkyd resins may be used and, as well known, these are condensation products of certain polyhydric alcohols and polybasic acids. Many of these alkyd resins contain higher fatty acids as part'of the condensation product but it will be understood that the higher fatty acids of the present invention are in addition to the alkyd resin and are not condensed therewith.
- resins examples include those sold under the trade names Paraplex (condensation polymer of sebacic acid and glycerol), Duraplex (condensation polymer of phthalic anhydride, glycerol and oleic acid), Amberlac (condensation polymer of maleic anhydride and glycerol) and the like. While various wetting agents may be used, parllauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic and oleic. It will be obvious that in the presence of an alkali these may be transformed partially into thefatty acid salt and thus fatty acid salts or soap would be the obvious equivalents of part of the fatty acids used.
- Paraplex condensation polymer of sebacic acid and glycerol
- Duraplex condensation polymer of phthalic anhydride, glycerol and oleic acid
- Amberlac condensation polymer of maleic anhydride and glycerol
- antiefoam agents such as various vegetable and animal oils and waxes may also be incorporated; .Such as tallow, lard, cocoanut oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, soyabean oil, sperm oil, and the like.

8 Claims.
This invention relates to the treatment of aqueou paper stocks for the purpose of preventing foaming during the paper-making operations.
It is well known that excess foaming. is highly disadvantageous in the manufacturing processes as it interferes with the proper operation of the manufacturing equipment such as heaters and frequently result in loss of the aqueous stock.
Because of this, a large number of substances have been prepared and recommended for the prevention of foam with varying success.
In general, there are a large number of compounds or mixtures of compounds which are effective in preventing or combating the foaming of aqueous slurries of paper pulp including fatty acids. Most of these, however, suffer from the disadvantage of producing a deleterious effect on the paper pulp resulting in an inferior product. A large number of these, for example, appear to destroy the sizing used in preparing the paper, thus lowering the water resistance of the paper markedly and allowing too great an ink penetration. Still others markedly effect'the dyeing properties of the paper causing uneven dyeing or so-called specking of the paper sometimes by,
reacting with the dyes.
It is, therefore, an object of this invention to prepare an anti-foaming agent which does not 2 tially saponified fatty acids are preferable. The addition of an alkali is thus desirable to saponify some of the acid. The higher fatty acids include the well-known examples found in fats, such as have a deleterious effect on the paper sizing resulting in loss of water resistance. 7
It is a further object of this invention toprepare an anti-foaming agent which doe not interfere with the dyeing propertie of the paper, i. e., specking.
These, and other objects of the invention, are attained by the process which comprises incorporating in the aqueous paper stock an antifoaming agent containing an alkyd resin, and an emulsifying agent, preferably a higher fatty acid plus an alkali. Any of the ordinary alkyd resins may be used and, as well known, these are condensation products of certain polyhydric alcohols and polybasic acids. Many of these alkyd resins contain higher fatty acids as part'of the condensation product but it will be understood that the higher fatty acids of the present invention are in addition to the alkyd resin and are not condensed therewith. Examples of the resins which may be used include those sold under the trade names Paraplex (condensation polymer of sebacic acid and glycerol), Duraplex (condensation polymer of phthalic anhydride, glycerol and oleic acid), Amberlac (condensation polymer of maleic anhydride and glycerol) and the like. While various wetting agents may be used, parllauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic and oleic. It will be obvious that in the presence of an alkali these may be transformed partially into thefatty acid salt and thus fatty acid salts or soap would be the obvious equivalents of part of the fatty acids used.
In addition to the two ingredients mentioned, other antiefoam agents such as various vegetable and animal oils and waxes may also be incorporated; .Such as tallow, lard, cocoanut oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, soyabean oil, sperm oil, and the like. In addition, certain aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons may also be incorporated.
The compositions of this invention are preferably added to the aqueous stocks to be defoamed or to prevent foaming in the form of aqueous emulsions. In general, stable emulsions can be prepared which contain 40-50% of water into which has been added a small amount of alkali, 1 to 2% being very effective for this purpose.
A number of batches of the new defoaming Parts Alkyd resin (Paraplex RG-Z Resinous Products and Chemical Company) 25 Palmitic acid 25 Water 48 50% sodium hydroxide solution 2 Sample paper pulp stocks were prepared. as follows;
A. parts rosin size solution g 40! parts clay (dry). 5 parts silicate of soda, S. 10 parts starch (dry). 5 starch (cooked to jelly in water). 50 parts bleached sulphite pulp (10% dry). 200 parts alum solution Made up to 750 parts with cold water.
Same as A with addition of 1.25 parts of a wetting agent comprising the condensation product of castor oil and polymerized ethylen oxide.
The pulp stock A was agitated in a small beater until foam formed on the surface and then about 0.1% of the composition of the example was added. The foam substantially disappeared. The same results were obtained on pulp stock B. Using our new composition in the pulp stocks before beating, no foamformed when the beater was started.
The product from the example when using the standard foaming solutions A and B was found to be superior to commercial products now being used for this purpose.
Ink penetration tests to determine the=effect on the sizing of the paper were also run. The paper used in the test was prepared as follows:
C. 30 parts bleached sulphite pulp 125 parts water. 5.3 parts rosin size 4.0 parts alum 3.0 parts anti-foam (1%).
Add in order; stir 1 hour. Dilute to 90 cc.; filter,
dry.
Ink penetration time is the average of three observations of the time required for standard testing ink at room temperature to penetrate upward through a 1 in. square sample of paper which is floated thereon. The standard ink is made as follows:
Dissolve 23.4 g. tannic acid USP and 7.7 g. gallic acid crystals in distilled water. Dissolve 30.0 g. ferrous sulfate crystals and 250 cc. hydrochloric acid USP dilute in distilled water and add to above. Dissolve 2.2 g. Ink Blue BJTBNA-80 in distilled water and add to above. Add 1 g..pheno1. Makes up to 1 liter With distilled water.
The results of the ink "penetration test are as follows:
Minutes Pulp sample D, contains emulsion of example 31 Control no anti-foam agent 40 The ink penetration time between the control andthe pulp sample D containingemulsion is not substantial and thus the emulsion does not adversely effect ink penetration. These results were substantially better than ink penetration tests on the same :pulp with other commercial antifoam agents.
In order to determine the efiecton dyeing, a series of dyeings were made using 1% dyestuff (based 'on pulp) 2% size 3% alum 1% anti-foam agent of example The dyes, which were incorporated in the pulp before making the paper included:
Orange R0 Extra Cone. Benzo'Fast OrangeWSA-CF Bismarck Brown RRNP Conc.
Very satisfactory dyeings were obtained in every case with no harmful effect from the anti- 4 foaming agents prepared according to this invention.
Ratio of alkyd resin to higher fatty acid in the anti-foaming agent may vary considerably but an amount suflicient to emulsify the resin may be used and preferably the amounts of resin and fatty acid should be about equal.
The "amount of alkyd resin to be used in the aqueous pulp may vary from a trace to about 0.1%. It will be understood that even larger quantities may be used, but that it becomes uneconomical.
The anti-foaming agent of the present invention has been found effective on sulphite, sulphate and kraft pulps. It has been demonstrated that these anti-foam agents do not adversely effect ink penetration and dyeing properties of the paper.
