Method for making a sheet of degradable paper, use of said sheet for making a mandrel defining a roll carrier, degradable paper sheet, and mandrel including at least one of said sheets
A method for making a water-degradable paper sheet involves the following: providing at least one strip of a water-soluble binding material in the form of a dry film; providing at least two strips each made of at least one ply of cellulose wadding; placing the strip of water-soluble binding material between the two strips of cellulose wadding; humidifying, assembling and pressing the three strips; and drying the complex strip thus obtained. The sheet thus obtained can be used for making a roll carrier mandrel by helically winding one or more strips from the sheet about a cylinder. Articles produced from the sheet can particularly be used in the field of products for sanitary or domestic use.
1. A method for manufacturing a sheet of paper that disintegrates in water, comprising:
supplying at least one band of water-soluble binder material in the form of a dry film, supplying at least two bands each formed from at least one ply of cellulose fiber, placing one of the at least one band of water-soluble binder material between two consecutive bands of the at least two bands of cellulose fiber, resulting in a plurality of bands, wetting, joining and pressing the plurality of bands to form a complex band, drying the complex band obtained.
2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least two bands of water-soluble binder material are joined with at least three bands of cellulose fiber, each of the at least two bands of water-soluble binder material being inserted between two consecutive bands of the at least three bands of cellulose fiber.
3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a band of the at least one band of water-soluble binder material is placed on a band of the at least two bands of cellulose fiber and the band of water-soluble binder material is wetted before placing the band of cellulose fiber on the band of water-soluble binder material.
4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein bands of the at least two bands of cellulose fiber comprise 2 to 24 plies of cellulose fiber.
5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein a quantity of water-soluble binder is added that represents, when dry, 20 to 70% by weight of a finished sheet.
6. The method as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the water-soluble binder added comprises starch and/or polyvinyl alcohol.
7. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the basis weight of a finished sheet is between 80 and 400 g/m 2 .
8. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the sheet is calendered before drying or after drying to obtain a sheet having a thickness between 0.3 and 1.2 mm.
9. A method for manufacturing a roll support core, comprising:
helically winding one or more bands, taken from a sheet of paper, around a cylinder, the sheet of paper manufactured by a method according to the following:
supplying at least one band of water-soluble binder material in the form of a dry film, supplying at least two bands each formed from at least one ply of cellulose fiber, placing one of the at least one band of water-soluble binder material between two consecutive bands of the at least two bands of cellulose fiber, resulting in a plurality of bands, wetting, joining and pressing the plurality of bands to form a complex band, drying the complex band obtained.
10. A sheet of paper that disintegrates in water, comprising:
a basis weight of between 80 and 400 g/m 2 , containing 20 to 70% of a water-soluble binder, the sheet of paper manufactured by a method according to the following:
supplying at least one band of water-soluble binder material in the form of a dry film, supplying at least two bands each formed from at least one ply of cellulose fiber, placing one of the at least one band of water-soluble binder material between two consecutive bands of the at least two bands of cellulose fiber, resulting in a plurality of bands, wetting, joining and pressing the plurality of bands to form a complex band, drying the complex band obtained.
11. A core for rolls, comprising:
a helical winding of one or more bands of paper, wherein each of the one or more bands is a sheet of paper that disintegrates in water, the sheet of paper comprising a basis weight of between 80 and 400 g/m 2 , containing 20 to 70% of a water-soluble binder, the sheet of paper manufactured by a method according to the following:
supplying at least one band of water-soluble binder material in the form of a dry film, supplying at least two bands each formed from at least one ply of cellulose fiber, placing one of the at least one band of water-soluble binder material between two consecutive bands of the at least two bands of cellulose fiber, resulting in a plurality of bands, wetting, joining and pressing the plurality of bands to form a complex band, drying the complex band obtained.
12. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein bands of the at least two bands of cellulose fiber comprise 2 to 10 plies of cellulose fiber.
13. The method as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a quantity of water-soluble binder is added that represents, when dry, 25% to 50% by weight of a finished sheet.
14. The sheet of paper as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the water-soluble binder comprises starch or polyvinyl alcohol.
