The Effects Of Temperature On Hot Melt Removal, Thomas J. Westerback Apr 1978

The Effects Of Temperature On Hot Melt Removal, Thomas J. Westerback

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

This experiment attempted to reveal the role temperature plays on the removal of hot melt adhesive from corrugated medium.

Three repulping trials were conducted· on stock containing a previous applied EVA base hotmelt. The trials were conducted at the following temperatures: 160°F, 100°F and 40°F. The stock was then screened and centrifical cleaned at varying temperatures.

Handsheets were made before and after each stage, and visually inspected for hot melt content. Trial 2A gave a final sheet with virtually no hot melt content.

Further lab work was conducted. At 160 ° the hot melt was found to tear into pieces. …

Vegetational Communities On An Abandoned Farm In Van Buren County, Michigan, Larry G. Visser Apr 1978

Vegetational Communities On An Abandoned Farm In Van Buren County, Michigan, Larry G. Visser

Masters Theses

Introduction

Several studies have been made of xeric forests in southern Michigan which have developed through secondary succession following the cutting of the presettlement vegetation. Brewer et al. (1973) described such an area in Allegan County, Michigan which was dominated by presettlement pine and is now dominated by oak. The oak forests of the Harvey Ott Preserve in Calhoun County, Michigan have been described by Catana (1967). Studies of the oak forests in the Haven Hill area in southeastern Michigan have been made by Thompson (1953). In addition to these studies of xeric forests in southern Michigan, extensive studies of …


Zeta Potential And Its Affects On The Washing Stages Of Newsprint Deinking, Stephen J. Shelton Jan 1978

Zeta Potential And Its Affects On The Washing Stages Of Newsprint Deinking, Stephen J. Shelton

Paper Engineering Senior Theses

The use of zeta potential as a parameter in the washing stages of newsprint deinking is discussed. Previous research provided the temperature, time, and consistencies used in the hydropulper and washing stages. The research carried out tried to determine whether or not zeta potential can be used as a way of increasing the effectiveness of the washing stages. The research carried out tried to determine whether or not zeta potential can be used as a way of increasing the effectiveness of the washing stages. By varying the zeta potential with chemical additives it was found that very little correlation could …
