Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention relates to a method for preparing aqueous furnish to be used in paper product manufacturing. In the method aqueous furnish is prepared by making a fiber suspension, and cationic natural polymer (S), alum (A) and anionic nanofibrillar cellulose (F) are added to the aqueous furnish in a short circulation of a paper or board machine.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for preparing aqueous furnish to be used in paper product manufacturing, in which method aqueous furnish is prepared by making a fibre suspension, and cationic natural polymer, alum and anionic nanofibrillar cellulose are added to the aqueous furnish in a short circulation of a paper or board machine; wherein alum is added before anionic nanofibrillar cellulose is added. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the cationic natural polymer and alum are added, in either order or simultaneously, before anionic nanofibrillar cellulose is added. 3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein alum is added before the fibre suspension is transferred to a feed pump in a paper machine, and the anionic nanofibrillated cellulose is added to the fibre suspension after the fibre suspension has passed through a pressure screen. 4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the cationic natural polymer is added, before, after or simultaneously with the alum, before the fibre suspension is transferred to a feed pump in a paper machine. 5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the cationic natural polymer is added before anionic nanofibrillar cellulose is added, followed by adding alum. 6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein the cationic natural polymer is added before the aqueous furnish is transferred to a feed pump in a paper machine, and alum and anionic nanofibrillar cellulose are added to the aqueous furnish after the aqueous furnish has passed through a pressure screen in a paper machine. 7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the cationic natural polymer is cationically modified polysaccharide, such as cationic starch or cationic nanofibrillar cellulose. 8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the fibre suspension comprises filler.
