Description
- The present invention relates to cellulose paper composite. More particularly, the present invention relates to a reinforced cellulose paper composite having enhanced tensile strength and tensile modulus and other parameters measured to determine strength of paper.
- Printing of currency notes involves significant cost, time and administrative effort of Indian government. Soiling and tensile strength of currency note are major factors leading to early withdrawal and release of new currency notes. The circulation life of currency notes ranges from 1-5 years depending on denomination. Strategies to enhance tensile strength and durability of currency notes could have significant social and economic impact.

- In an embodiment, referring to tables 1-4, an increase in tensile modulus by 15-40%, preferably 20-40%, is achieved by the addition of 15-20% nano cellulose for uncut paper.
- In an embodiment, referring to tables 1-4, an increase in tensile strength by 30-50% is achieved by the addition of 15-20% nano cellulose for uncut paper.
- In one more embodiment of the invention, the ratio (R) of tensile strength of sample with a existing cut or tear (which is a measure of only tear propagation resistance) to the tensile strength of the sample without a cut (a measure of both tear initiation and propagation resistance) is measured. Referring to table 4, a 75-95% enhancement is seen for an addition of 15-20 nano cellulose.
- In a preferred embodiment, the ratio R is enhanced by 80-90% for an addition of 15-20 nano cellulose.
- In yet another embodiment of the invention, tear propagation resistance is studied. Tear propagation resistance is the ratio of ratio of tensile strength of paper with cut measured for each concentration of nano cellulose to tensile strength or modulus of A4 paper with cut. The tear propagation resistance of cut paper is increased by 50-70% for an addition of 15-20% nano cellulose to micro cellulose. The tear propagation resistance is preferably enhanced by 50-65% by the addition of 15-20% nano cellulose to micro cellulose.
- There is no suggestion in any prior art to add nano cellulose in the range of 15-20% to micro cellulose to accomplish enhancement of total tear resistance which consists of tear initiation and tear propagation resistance. It is surprisingly that the concentration range of 15-20% causes enhancement, while increasing the concentration greater than 20% or less than 15% does not cause an enhancement. The prior arts neither suggest nor teach that the specific range of nano cellulose causes enhancement of key parameters of measure of strength of paper.

A2, B2, C2 represent the bleached pulp of sugarcane bagasse, cotton rag and sisal respectively. A3, B3, C3 represent the final nanocellulose product of sugarcane bagasse, cotton rag and sisal respectively. - The
FIG. 2 shows with cut and without cut samples. Without cut samples data gives information about tensile strength and modulus for the specimen which is not having any deformation in it. It is similar to Edge-tearing strength (TAPPI standard T-470) and is a measure of the force needed to initiate a tear. With cut samples data gives information about tensile strength and modulus of a specimen where a tear is already initiated. This is similar to commonly used tearing test (TAPPI T-414), also often called the Elmendorf tear test, which measures the internal tearing resistance of paper rather than the edge-tear strength of paper. - The paper composite prepared by the composition of the invention comprising 80-85% micro cellulose and 15-20% nano cellulose is useful in preparing security documents. The paper composition of the invention has enhanced folding resistance and is smooth and is versatile to be used for preparing paper for security applications. Security documents are documents made of paper that need to identified or authenticated as genuine using security features and are selected from, but not limited to currency notes, passports, bonds, certificates, agreements, stamp or stamp paper, share certificates and such like.
- Examples Following examples are given by way of illustration therefore should not be construed to limit the scope of the invention.
- The nanocellulose source material was cut into small pieces. Alkali treatment was carried out by washing the pieces with base for 4 to 5 hours under mechanical stirring to form fibres. Bleaching treatment was carried out on fibres by bleaching solution at the temperature ranging from 70° C-80° C. for the time period ranging from 3 to 4 h; repeating process for 2 to 3 times to afford pulp. Then it was filtered and rinsed followed by grinding said pulp in ultra-fine micro grinder. Then the nano cellulose pulp was combined with micro cellulose pulp to form composite paper in ratios listed in the tables. After drying the paper are tested by tensile testing machine (INSTRON UTM) at rate lmm/min. The 13 mm×40 mm rectangular shape specimen are used. At least 6 specimens were tested for each composition listed below in the tables 1-3. Two types of mode were tested with cut and without cut.
