Definitions
- This invention relates to a new creping aid composition and a method for producing creped paper products using this composition which results in improved paper quality and a more efficient method for manufacturing creped paper products.
- Enhancing the softness of paper products such as tissue and towelling is desirable.
- Softness is the tactile sensation a user perceives as the user holds, rubs or crumples a particular paper product. This tactile sensation is provided by a combination of several physical properties including the bulk, stiffness and stretchability of the paper.
- Creping a process which is well known in the art, is a means of mechanically foreshortening a fibrous structure in the machine direction in order to enhance the softness, bulk and stretchability of the paper. Creping is generally accomplished with a flexible blade, known as a creping blade, which is placed against a drying surface such as a Yankee dryer. The fibrous structure adheres to the Yankee dryer as it contacts the dryer surface. The fibrous structure travels along the surface of the Yankee dryer until it is removed by the creping blade. The degree to which the fibrous structure adheres to the Yankee dryer prior to creping is a key factor in determining the degree of softness, bulk, and stretchability exhibited by the fibrous structure after creping.
- Creping aids are generally applied to the surface of the Yankee dryer to further facilitate the adhesion/creping process. It is desirable to deposit the creping aid on the surface of the Yankee dryer.
- the level of adhesion of the fibrous structure to the Yankee surface is of importance as it relates to the control of the fibrous structure in its travel from the creping blade to the reel of the paper machine. Fibrous structures which are insufficiently adhered to the surface of the Yankee dryer are generally difficult to control and often result in quality problems at the reel such as wrinkling, foldovers and -2-
- the level of adhesion of the fibrous structure to the Yankee surface is also of importance as it relates to the drying of the fibrous structure. Higher levels of adhesion permit better heat transfer. This enables the fibrous structure to dry faster thus allowing the operation to run at higher speeds.
- creping aids Prior to the development of creping aids, adhesion of the fibrous structure to the dryer surface was accomplished through the presence of naturally occurring hemicellulose present in the paper fiber. Hemicellulose deposits were observed forming on the surface of the dryer as a result of the evaporation of water from the fibrous structure. The hemicellulose deposits were found to contain small fiber fragments picked out of the fibrous structure. It was noted that these deposits resulted in the formation of a heavy film on the surface of the Yankee dryer and subsequent poor crepe quality. For those paper machines utilizing through-air drying, it was further observed that the formation of hemicellulose deposits on the surface of the Yankee dryer was greatly reduced and hence not sufficient to provide an adequate coating. As a result, creping aids were developed in order to supplement the coating formation.
- the first creping aids utilized with through-air drying were animal hide glues. These glues, made from gelatin, have a complex, irregular molecular structure and dry to an irregular, disordered mass. Given their irregular molecular structure, these type of -3-
- glues tend to form a coating on the surface of the Yankee dryer which exhibits low mechanical strength thus making the coating relatively easy to remove from the Yankee dryer surface.
- a major limitation of these glues is that they require large amounts of water in the fiber in order for the glues to achieve the necessary tack required at the pressure roll/Yankee nip.
- the effectiveness of these types of glues tends to be limited.
- creping aid allow for a proper balance between adhesion of the fibrous structure to the drying surface and the release of the fibrous structure at the creping blade.
- one of the difficulties encountered with the use of creping aids has been a tendency for the creping aid to form a bond between the fibrous structure and the drying surface at the point of creping such that the fibrous structure does not properly release from the drying surface. This results in portions of the fibrous structure remaining adhered to the surface thus causing defects in the fibrous structure and/or causing the fibrous structure to break.
- creping aids Another common problem associated with the use of creping aids, is an excessive build-up of the creping aid on the drying surface. While some amount of buildup of the creping aid on the surface is essential, excessive buildup can produce streaks which impact the profile of adhesion across the width of the drying surface. This can result in bumps or wrinkles in the finished paper. Quite often, a second blade, known as a cleaning blade, is placed on the drying surface just after the creping blade. The purpose of the cleaning blade is to remove excess creping aid and other residue left behind. Historically, both the creping blade and cleaning blade have had to be frequently changed in order to prevent excessive buildup.
- creping aid In order to prevent excessive buildup on the drying surface, it is important that the creping aid be rewettable. "Rewettable”, as used herein, refers to the ability of the creping aid remaining on the Yankee dryer surface to be activated by the moisture contained in the fibrous structure. A marked increase in tack is indicative of high rewettabihty. Because through-air drying tends to remove more water than a conventional wet press section, a fibrous structure which is through-air dried will -4-
- a through-air dried fibrous structure contains less moisture than a similar fibrous structure which is conventionally wet pressed, there is less moisture available in the through-air dried fibrous structure to be transferred to the surface of the Yankee dryer.
- a fibrous structure which has been dried to a relatively higher fiber consistency, such as a through-air dried fibrous structure, is more difficult to adhere to the drying surface because the fibrous structure has less water available to rewet the creping aid at the point at which the fibrous structure is transferred to the drying surface.
- Polyvinyl alcohol creping adhesives require less moisture than animal glue to provide tack to the surface of the Yankee dryer.
- polyvinyl alcohol films are high molecular weight films having a highly crystalline structure, when used alone as creping adhesives, they tend to adhere strongly to the Yankee dryer surface resulting in excessive coating buildup and streaks.
- creping aids based on PAA secondary amine resin chemistry are thermosetting and thus will cure on the heated surface of the Yankee dryer. Creping aids containing thermosetting resins are problematic in that the coating formed by the application of the creping aid to the Yankee dryer on a machine utilizing through-air drying tends to be brittle and exhibits poor adhesion to the dryer surface.
- thermosetting wet strength resins will actively crosslink with creping aids which contain a secondary amine backbone. This results in the formation of a hard coating on the surface of the Yankee dryer having poor adhesive properties which in turn leads to an overall reduction in the efficacy of the creping aid.
- each of the purported creping aids contains a thermosetting resin.
- the thermosetting resin will cure on the heated surface of the Yankee dryer forming a brittle coating with poor adhesion characteristics.
- each of the purported creping aids contains secondary amines.
- the use of creping aids containing secondary amines in conjunction with the addition of a thermosetting wet strength resin will tend to reduce the efficacy of the creping aid as the creping aid will crosslink with the active secondary amine groups present in the thermosetting wet strength resin. This results in a loss of adhesion of the creping aid.
- the present invention provides a method of producing a creped paper product exhibiting overall improved crepe quality.
- the present invention also provides a creping aid which exhibits overall improved performance in conjunction with all types of fibrous structures including those through-air dried fibrous structures transferred to the Yankee dryer at higher consistencies such as those fibrous structures taught in commonly assigned U.S. Patent Nos.: 3,301,746, issued to Sanford et al. on January 31, 1967; 5,274,930 issued to Ensign et al. on January 4, 1994; and 5,584,126, issued to Ensign et al. on December 17, 1996 all of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- This invention further provides a more efficient method for producing creped paper products wherein the creping aid is not deleteriously impacted by the use of thermosetting wet strength resins.
- Benefits of the present invention include the ability to control coating buildup on the surface of the Yankee dryer as a function of changing paper machine system conditions and the ability to control individual properties of the coating such as the adhesive, release, and rewettabihty properties thereby providing enhanced machine runnability and improved paper quality.

- amine groups in the endcapped polyamidoamine prepolymer is between about 1/2 [1/ (DP n -1)] and about 1/ (DP n -1).
- thermosetting resin containing azetidinium active functional groups Upon continued exposure to a thermosetting resin containing azetidinium active functional groups in conjunction with the high temperature conditions found on the Yankee dryer 109 of FIG. 1, a non-thermosetting resin having secondary amine groups in the backbone structure would be expected to continue crosslinking, resulting in its brittleness and a loss of its adhesive properties. This is not the case however with the prophetically preferred resin of this invention.
- the critical aspect of the prophetically preferred non-thermosetting resin of this invention is the absence of thermosetting properties due to the absence of an active crosslinking functional group and the absence of secondary amine groups. Due to the absence of active intralinker, the prophetically preferred non-thermosetting resin of this invention will not react with other resins containing secondary amine groups.
- the prophetically preferred non-thermosetting resin of this invention tends not to react with the active intralinker such as azetidinium commonly found in thermosetting resins.
- the non-thermosetting cationic resin of the prophetically preferred resin of this invention will not crosslink with the azetidinium active functional groups of the wet strength resins.
- non- thermosetting cationic resin of this invention will not crosslink with the azetidinium active functional groups of the wet strength resins, there is no loss of adhesion associated with the use of this resin.
- films prepared from the non-thermosetting cationic resin of this invention that can be completely redissolved in distilled water within 24 hours.
- the resin of this invention tends to improve the overall rewettabihty of the coating formed on the surface of the Yankee dryer 109 when compared to prior art resins.
- a diacid such as adipic acid
- a polyamine such as N-methyl bis (3- aminopropylamine)
- an endcapping agent such as monoethanolamine.
- a mixture of these three reactants is heated at a temperature of about 160°C to 170°C for about 1 hour to 4 hours, at atmospheric pressure. Where a reduced pressure is employed, lower temperatures may be utilized.
- This polycondensation reaction produces water as a byproduct, which is removed by distillation. At the end of this reaction the resulting product is dissolved in water at a concentration of about 50% by weight of total polymer solids.
- the prepolymerization can be conducted at a lower temperature, specifically about 110°C at atmospheric pressure.
- the byproduct will be an alcohol
- the type of alcohol byproduct formed depends upon the identity of the diester. For instance, where a dimethyl ester is employed the alcohol byproduct will be methanol, while ethanol will be the byproduct obtained from a diethyl ester.
- aqueous solution of the prepolymer is reacted with intralinker to obtain the intralinked polyamidoamine.
- the prepolymer and intralinker are mixed with an appropriate amount of dilution water, to provide a reaction solution having a concentration of about 30% by weight of total solids (prepolymer + intralinker).
- This mixture is then maintained at a temperature of about 25°C to 80°C, more preferably about 50°C to 70°C and most preferably about 60°C.
- the viscosity of the mixture is monitored, using Gardner-Holdt viscosity tubes.
- the reaction is continued until viscosity reaches a particular value, preferably on the Gardner-Holdt scale, at which point cold dilution water is added to end the reaction.
- the reaction may be diluted with warm water, with the heating being continued until the viscosity again builds to the "L" level.
- Example 1 is a polyamidoamine prepared from adipic acid and diethylenetriamine, without the endcapping agent of the present invention. This -19-
- prepolymer is included for the purpose of comparison with the prepolymers of the invention.
- the polyamine and the monoethanolamine endcapping agent were added to a 2,000 ml. resin kettle fitted with a condenser, Dean-Stark trap, thermocouple, addition funnel, and mechanical stirrer. Stirring of this mixture was then initiated, and the adipic acid was cautiously added during the stirring. The temperature of the reaction mixture was maintained below 125°C by controlling the rate at which the adipic acid was added.
- Table 1 below sets forth the amount of reactants employed in preparing the prepolymers of Examples 1-3, as well as the actual and theoretical water of distillation, the amount of hot water added during the synthesis, and the solids content of the product. Table 1 also lists theoretical and actual molecular weight values (provided as DP n and RSV, respectively) for the resulting prepolymers.

- Prepolymer, intralinker, and water were added to a 500 ml 4-necked flask fitted with a condenser, addition funnel, thermocouple, and mechanical stirrer. The temperature of the mixture was raised to 60°C. Viscosity was monitored using Gardner-Holdt tubes while the temperature was held at this point.
- the reaction was conducted as a single step. Specifically, cold dilution water was added to cool the reaction to room temperature when the terminal viscosity was reached. At the point of terminal viscosity the reaction was diluted with cold water, and cooled to room temperature. A light gold product was thusly provided.
- Table II below sets forth the amounts of prepolymer (g/g solids/eq) and intralinker (g/moles) employed in preparing the intralinked polyamidoamines of resin samples A and B. Table II also sets forth the solids content, pH and Brookfield viscosity (in centipoises) of the resin, as well as the above-noted Gardner-Holdt reaction points and reduced specific viscosity of the resin.
- the Max.% intralinker value also denotes the amount of intralinker used in the foregoing Samples. Yet additionally, it is the maximum amount of the intralinker which can be reacted with the indicated prepolymer, without causing the resin to gel or resulting in a resin with reactive intralinker functionality. This -21-
- the measurement is accordingly provided as a mole percent of the intralinker, based on the intralinker reactive amine groups in the prepolymer - i.e., it is calculated as the molar percent of the indicated intralinker reactive amine functionality.
- the resulting value thusly expresses as a percentage, the relationship of moles of intralinker per mole of intralinker reactive amine groups in the prepolymer.
- the creping aid of this invention may also include a modifier.
- Modifiers are used to alter the adhesion/creping characteristics of the coating formed on the surface of the Yankee dryer 109 resultant from the application of the creping aid to the Yankee dryer 109 surface.
- Suitable modifiers include hydrocarbon oils, surfactants, and preferably plasticizers.
- Surfactants and hydrocarbon oils function primarily by increasing the lubricity of the coating formed on the drying surface thereby modifying the release characteristics of the coating. Surfactants and hydrocarbon oils tend to be incompatible with the other components of the creping aid. When added as a component of the creping aid, there is a tendency for the surfactant or hydrocarbon oil to separate out -22-
- a plasticizer tends to be fully compatible with the creping aid.
- the plasticizer useable with this invention which forms a stable dispersion in water, is compatible with the other components of the creping aid of this invention.
- the plasticizer functions by reacting with the other components of the creping aid so as to soften the coating formed on the surface of the Yankee dryer 109.
- Suitable plasticizers include propylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol dipropylene glycol, glycerol, and preferably ethylene glycol.
- a prophetically preferred plasticizer, sold commercially as CREPETROL R 6390, is available from Hercules Incorporated of Wilmington, Delaware.
- the creping aid of this invention may be printed, blown, puddled or preferably sprayed onto the surface of the Yankee dryer 109 through the creping aid spray boom shower 107.
- the film-forming semi-crystalline polymer, the non-thermosetting cationic resin and the optional plasticizer may all be applied together to the surface of the Yankee dryer 109 or they may each be applied separately. Additionally, the non- thermosetting cationic resin and the plasticizer may be applied together while the polyvinyl alcohol is applied separately.
- the non-thermosetting cationic resin of this invention has a total solids content range of about 1% to 60% based on the dry weight of the resin.
- a total solids content range of about 1% to 40% by weight of resin is preferred, concentrations of about 5% to 35% are more preferred and concentrations of about 10% to 30% are most preferred.
- the non-thermosetting cationic resin comprises from about 5% to 90% of the creping aid based on the dry weight of the resin relative to the dry weight of the creping aid.
- the polyvinyl alcohol of this invention comprises -23-
- the optional plasticizer of this invention comprises from about 0.5% to 90% of the creping aid based on the dry weight of the plasticizer relative to the dry weight of the creping aid.
- the application rate of the creping aid is about 0.25 to 8.5 pounds of dry weight of the total applied creping aid per ton of dry fiber produced at the reel 119 of the paper machine 80.
- a first aqueous papermaking furnish is pumped through a top chamber 82 and a second aqueous papermaking furnish is pumped through the bottom chamber 83.

- the fibrous structure 88 is dewatered on the forming fabric 85 assisted by the deflector 90 and vacuum suction boxes 91.
- the fibrous structure 88 is then transferred to the pre-drying section 106. As the fibrous structure 88 enters the web transfer zone 93, it is transferred to the foraminous carrier fabric 96 by the action of the vacuum transfer box 97.
- the foraminous carrier fabric 96 carries the fibrous structure 88 from the transfer zone past the vacuum dewatering box 98 through the through-air dryers 100 and past a turning roll 94.
- the fibrous structure 88 is transferred from the foraminous carrier fabric 96 to the Yankee dryer 109 surface. At this point of transfer, the fibrous structure 88 has a consistency of about 10% to 90%, preferably 45% to 75%, and more preferably 55% to 65%.
- the fibrous structure 88 is secured to the surface of the Yankee dryer 109 by the pressure roll 102 assisted by the creping aid.
- the fibrous structure 88 is dried by the steam heated Yankee dryer 109 and by hot air which is circulated through a drying hood 110.
- the fibrous structure 88 is removed from the surface of the Yankee dryer 109 preferably by creping it from the surface with a creping blade 111.
