1、 UNIT TWO PACKAGING MATERIALS AND CONTAINER 第二单元第二单元 包装材料和容器包装材料和容器 Lesson 3 Paper and Paperboard 第第3课课 纸与纸板纸与纸板 Introduction Definition of paper:Paper is defined as a matted or felted sheet usually composed of plant fiber.Paper has been commercially made from such fiber sources as rags(linen),bagas
2、se(sugar cane),cotton,and straw.Modern paper is made almost exclusively from cellulose fiber derived from wood.Although the word“paper”is derived from the Egyptian term,“papyrus”was not a true paper in the modern sense.-Invention of paperThe invention of paper by blending cellulose fibers didnt occu
3、r until the beginning of the second century A.D.Introduction Tsai Lun,a member of the court of the later Han Dynasty,is generally credited with developing the first real papermaking process in 105 A.D.The“Fourdrinier machine”was the first on the market and produced a homogenous(single-ply)sheet of b
4、oxboard in various thicknesses.It was soon joined by the“Cylinder machine”which formed a multi-layered(multi-ply)type of paperboard.These machines were first installed in the United States around 1830.Introduction Paper and paperboard Paperboard,boxboard,cardboard,and cartonboard are all terms used
5、to describe heavier paper stock.The International Organization for Standardization(ISO)states that material weighing more than 250 grams per square metre(511b per 1,000 sq.ft.)shall be known as paperboard.U.S.practice calls material that is more than 300(0.012 in.)thick paperboard.Representative Pap
6、ermaking Machines Fourdrinier Machines Fourdrinier machines(Figure 3.1)pump furnish from a headbox directly onto a moving wire screen through which the water is continuously drained.Fourdrinier machines may have a second headbox(Figure 3.2)situated downstream of the first headbox to add further quan

11、nt layers do not intermingle,and therefore the bond between the layers is weak.The dry end is similar to that of the fourdrinier machine.Cylinder machines do not have the fourdrinier machines limitation on the number of stations,and six-or seven-station machines are common.Higher-caliper boards for
12、folding and setup cartons are usually cylinder boards.Generally,papers are made on fourdrinier or twin-wire formers,whereas heavier paperboard products are made on cylinder-type machines.Extremely heavy boards are made by laminating several thinner sheets.A typical cylinder board construction(Figure

14、antage is that dewatering takes place on both sides of the paper and is therefore fast.These machines can produce single and multi-ply sheets with identical formation at both faces.Machine Direction and Cross Direction Depositing a fiber-and-water slurry onto a moving wire belt tends to align fibers
15、 in the direction of travel,known as the machine direction(MD).The direction across the apermaking machine and across the fiber alignment is the cross direction(CD)(Figure 3.7).Because of this fiber alignment,paper is an anisotropic material;measured properties differ depending on the direction in w
