The impact of hot-melt adhesives on the paper recycling process
Source abstract
Abstract
Hot melts and other adhesives can cause contamination problems in recycling paper and paper board. Some types of hot melts cause more problems than others in fouling mill equipment and affecting paper quality. Adhesive manufacturers are evaluating two categories of repulpable hot melts--dispersible or soluble hot melts and recoverable hot melts. This paper examines the paper recycling process to understand how hot melts cause problems. A simplified depiction of a paper recycling operation is shown. The steps in the process are described.
