The precipitated calcium carbonate is modified by a chelating titanate
coupling agent, and the modified product is calcined at 550 ° C to obtain a
modified calcium carbonate. The modified calcium carbonate was used as a
papermaking filler. The whiteness of the paper increased slightly, the
mechanical properties decreased to a certain extent, and the retention rate of
the filler did not change significantly.
The titanate coupling agent reacts with the surface hydroxyl group of the
inorganic substance to enable the filler to be activated. Therefore, in the
plastics industry, it is often used to couple thermoplastic polymers and dry
fillers, thereby increasing the filling amount, reducing the amount of resin,
reducing the cost of the product, improving the processing performance,
increasing the gloss of the product, and improving the product quality. The
strength of paper mainly comes from the interaction of hydrogen bonds between
cellulose molecules. What kind of effect will it be applied to papermaking?
