Permeability simulation for filled paper based on three-dimensional structural model developed by X-ray computed tomography scanning
Source abstract
Abstract
In this study, an in-depth exploration of filled paper was conducted to understand its structural and permeability characteristics. Cotton linter pulp and precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) filler were utilized to prepare pure fiber paper, and PCC1 and PCC2 filled papers with different filler particle sizes. Then, the pore structure parameters of paper samples were characterized by mercury intrusion porosimetry, and the X-ray computed tomography (X-CT) scanning was carried out. Subsequently, the 3D microstructures were established based on the X-CT slice images, and the filler characteristic parameters and filler 3D distribution were quantitatively analyzed. Finally, permeation simulations in the thickness and horizontal directions were performed. The findings indicate that filling changes the paper porosity, and the pore tortuosity varies with direction. The estimated pore•throat radius distribution shows specific patterns for different papers. The fillers have different distribution characteristics in the paper samples. Moreover, the paper permeability differs with direction, with smallsized filler having a significant impact on fluid penetration in the thickness direction. Overall, this study provides an effective method for investigating internal paper filler and its distribution, which contributes to the understanding of paper structure•performance relationships.
