Measurement Of The Degree Of Cellulose Degradation Caused By Fungi, Ronald C. Morgan

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

The objective of this thesis is to obtain a method for determining the degree of cellulose degradation, caused by fungal attack, using testing methods commen to the paper industry rather than complex biochemical testing procedures.

Supercalender Variables (Iii) The Effects Of Static Pressure And Rolling Pressure On Paper, Donald V. Martin

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

This thesis is the third in a series of fundamental investigations of the variables of supercalendering. The variables studied in this thesis are the internal effects derived from rolling pressure and of static pressure on paper. These variables were investigated by testing four grades of paper after being subjected to supercalendering and comparing them with similar grades pressed by a hydraulic press. The experimental results show that a definite comparative trend in the internal effects of paper were established between the rolling pressure caused by supercalendering and static pressure given by a hydraulic press. The physical properties tested were Mullen, …

The Bonding Of Felted Glass Fibers By The Use Of Ordinary Papermakers' Wet-Strength Resins, Kenneth C. Rasmussen

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Papermakers' wet-strength resins have been added to felted glass fibers as to increase the strength of the fibers.

On the basis that a stronger sheet of paper made from glass fibers could be put to many uses, experiments were of two types. First, an excess of wet-strength resins were added to the fibers. Second, handsheets made of one hundred per-cent glass fibers were dipped into a two per-cent resin tub-sizing solution.

Favorable results were obtained in both cases.

The Effect Of Various Deinking Solutions And Concentrations Upon The Strength Of Fiber, Leonard J. Timmer

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

Preliminary investigation produced limited information on the effect of various deinking solutions and concentrations upon the strength of fiber. Experimentation indicated that deinking does have a destructive effect upon the strength of fiber. This effect correlates to the temperature and the amount of chemical used. Also indicated is the fact that a mixture of Sodium hydroxide and Sodium carbonate has less of a destructive effect than either of these alone.

Textbooks Of World History For The Senior High School, David E. Proud

Masters Theses

The Problem and Its Background

The Place of World History in Secondary Education

The study of world history has great significance in our secondary schools. In an age of persistent world crisis, the importance of the skills, information, and powers of analysis that may be acquired through the study of world history is deemed essential by many educators. The fact of its presence in the curriculum is in itself evidence that world history is considered important. In the most recent survey available from the United States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare

it was noted that world history is "quite …

Optimization Of A Kraft Pulp Dioxirane Bleaching Stage, Eric A. Thompson

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

This research characterized and optimized the bleaching potential of dimethyldioxirane (DMD) on an -oxygen-delignified hardwood kraft pulp. The DMD wash produced in-situ using a caroate (2KHSO₅^.KHSO₄^.K₂ SO₄) acetone under controlled conditions. The studied variables included chemical concentration, consistency, temperature, reaction time, and chelation. Statistically designed experiments with response surface, methodology were used - to help locate the optimum conditions with respect to pulp brightness and strength. These conditions were located at 2.8% AO (activated-oxygen charge), 5.5% consistency, and 55^° C.

It was found that over 95% of the total brightness …
