Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a refined cellulose fiber composition useful as a strength enhancing agent for paper and paperboard, wherein the refined cellulose fiber composition has a Schopper-Riegler (SR) number in the range of 80-98 as determined by standard ISO 5267-1, and wherein the refined cellulose fiber composition has a content of fibers having a length >0.2 mm of at least 12 million fibers per gram based on dry weight. The invention further relates to a method for preparing the refined cellulose fiber composition and to pulp paper and paperboard comprising the refined cellulose fiber composition.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A refined cellulose fiber composition, wherein the refined cellulose fiber composition has a Schopper-Riegler (SR) number in the range of 80-98 as determined by standard ISO 5267-1, and wherein the refined cellulose fiber composition has a content of fibers having a length >0.2 mm in a range of 15 to 40 million fibers per gram based on a dry weight; and wherein said refined cellulose fibers are refined softwood cellulose fibers. 2. The refined cellulose fiber composition according to claim 1 , wherein said refined cellulose fiber composition has a Schopper-Riegler (SR) number in the range of 85-98, as determined by standard ISO 5267-1. 3. The refined cellulose fiber composition according to claim 1 , wherein said refined cellulose fiber composition has a content of fibers having a length >0.2 mm in the range of 20 to 30 million fibers per gram based on a dry weight. 4. The refined cellulose fiber composition according to claim 1 , wherein said refined cellulose fiber composition has a crill value in a range of 1.8 to 2.5. 5. The refined cellulose fiber composition according to claim 1 , wherein said refined cellulose fiber composition has a mean fibril area of fibers having a length >0.2 mm in a range of 17% to 50%. 6. A cellulose pulp for manufacturing paper or paperboard, comprising: at least 0.1% by weight of the refined cellulose fiber composition according to claim 1 , based on a dry weight. 7. The cellulose pulp for manufacturing paper or paperboard according to claim 6 , wherein the cellulose pulp is a chemi-thermomechanical pulp (CTMP).
