alkali-washed nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) samples, obtained from hardwood kraft pulp, with different amounts of retained xylan were prepared to study the influence of xylan on the water-retention properties of NFC suspensions. In this study, NFC was produced using an oxoammonium-catalyzed oxidation reaction that converts the cellulosic substrate to a more highly oxidized material via the action of the nitroxide radical species 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl. Reduction of the xylan content in NFC was achieved by cold alkali extraction of kraft pulp. The pulps were then oxidized to a set charge under constant chemical conditions, and the reaction time was determined. The xylan content of the feed pulp was found to have a large negative influence on the oxidation rate of the pulp, as the oxidation time shortened when xylan was removed, from 220 min (for 25.2 % xylan content) to 28 min (for 7.3 % xylan content). Following fibrillation by homogenization, the swelling of the NFC was determined by a two-point solute exclusion method. The distribution of hemicellulose over the fibril surface was observed by atomic force microscopy. Xylan was found to be distributed unevenly over the surface, and its presence increased the water immobilized within flocs of NFC, i.e., so-called network swelling. The swelling of the NFC had a large impact on its rheology and dewatering. Comparison of the morphological and swelling properties of the suspensions with their rheological and dynamic dewatering behavior showed that reducing the xylan content in NFC results in a weaker gel structure of the nanocellulose suspension. The results indicate that most of the water is held by the swollen structure by means of xylan particles trapped within the hemicellulose layer covering the fibril surface. Samples with high xylan content had high shear modulus and viscosity and were difficult to dewater. 相似文献

Alkali treatment was used to increase the reactivity of birch kraft pulp prior to its 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy (TEMPO) catalyzed oxidation with hypochlorite, which is a process commonly applied to prepare nanofibrillated cellulose. On contrary to the traditional use of NaBr as a cocatalyst, TEMPO was activated with HOCl prior to the oxidation. Commonly, the lack of bromide increases the oxidation time and impairs the formation of carboxylic groups. However, the reaction time of the bromide-free TEMPO catalyzed oxidation could be shortened from 2.5 to 0.5 h when the pulp was treated with 1 M NaOH prior to the oxidation (2.4 mmol NaOCl/g pulp). The beneficial effect was obtained even if the alkali treatment was executed at room temperature and only for few minutes. Moreover, the alkali pretreatment enabled selective production of a pulp with carboxylate content as high as 1.6 mmol/g with NaOCl dosage of 4.4 mmol/g. The changes in the cellulosic raw material during the alkali treatment were assessed by water retention value and carbohydrate analysis. 相似文献
