Zusammenfassung: | A method of making sanitary paper products from recycled newspapers. The method includes the steps of: (a) pulping newspapers in water with agitation to produce a pulp slurry, the pulp from the newspapers having an average fines content of greater than about 40% and a Canadian Standard Freeness of less than about 250; (b) washing the pulp, whereby the fines content is reduced to less than about 35% and the Canadian Standard Freeness is increased to more than about 300; (c) introducing the treated pulp at a papermaking consistency into the headbox of a paper making machine; (d) adding from about 0.01% to about 1.5% of a surfactant system to the treated pulp; and (e) utilizing the treated pulp in a paper making process to produce sanitary paper products. |
