Effect of pulp refining on thixotropy of cellulose fiber suspensions
Source abstract
Abstract
This paper presents results on the thixotropic behavior of low-consistency bleached eucalyptus fiber suspensions that had been mechanically treated. The pulps were refined in a PFI mill at different numbers of revolutions (0, 3000, and 6000) to study the effect of refining intensity on the viscosity time-response of fiber suspensions. In steady rheological tests, all the suspensions exhibited shear thinning behavior and no significant differences were observed after mechanical treatment. Stepwise experiments showed that viscosity continuously increased with time when shear rate was suddenly reduced. Additionally, a delay in time evolution of viscosity was observed as the pulp was more refined. A stretched exponential model was fitted to the experimental results of viscosity.
