11、 are to be regarded as thestandard. Values in parentheses are for information only.10.2 Starting cellulose fibers should be in a dry sheet form(drylap) or in a dry, low-density bulk form. In this context, theterm dry means at equilibrium moisture content (see 3.1),which is 6 to 8 % moisture for most

12、 pulps.11. Calibration and Standardization11.1 Calibration and maintenance of the zero-span tensiletester will be accomplished as prescribed in TAPPI T 231. Inaddition, a control chart of the instrument will be maintainedbased on breaking paper strips cut from control sheets of paper.A ream of copy

13、paper can be used for this purpose or any otherpaper with consistent furnish, uniform basis weight, anduniform density (see 3.1). Control paper produced on a papermachine should be tested in the machine direction.12. Conditioning12.1 Handsheets are to be conditioned prior to testing asdescribed in T

14、APPI T 205.13. Procedure13.1 For drylap, mechanically disintegrate the pulp sheet toget 150 g of individualized fibers for each sample to be tested.High-density pulp sheets can also be slurried at low consis-tency, then air-dried to provide a bulk sample of low density.The bulk, air-dry sample can t

15、hen be disintegrated mechani-cally or by hand to provide individualized fibers.13.2 To 10 g (dry basis) of cellulose fibers, add 23.3 g of 1NNaOH and allow to remain for 24 h. (This corresponds to a30 % consistency, that is, 10 g pulp/33.3 g total. Moisture inthe pulp is ignored as long as the moist

16、ure content (see TAPPIT 231) is 10 %. A fiber sample larger than 10 g can be used,but the starting consistency must still be 30 %.) The samplemay be placed in an uncovered beaker to simulate an environ-ment that is open to the atmosphere, or placed in a sealed bagto simulate an environment in which

17、the consistency wouldremain constant.13.3 Repeat step 13.2 to prepare five more samples that willbe left to age for time intervals of 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days,respectively. Once the time interval has been met, work-up ofthe samples is accomplished by collecting fibers on a wirescreen (100 mesh), wa

18、shing with tap water until washings aresubstantially neutral (pH=7to7.5), and then air drying.13.4 Prepare 2 sets of standard handsheets according toTAPPI T 205 for each time interval. One set will be made frompulp that has not been treated with sodium hydroxide and willbe the control set. The other

19、 set will be prepared from fibersthat have been exposed to alkali for the designated timeinterval. These 2 sets of handsheets will be prepared on thesame day.13.5 Each set of handsheets will be tested for zero-spantensile according to TAPPI T 231.14. Calculation or Interpretation of Results14.1 Dete

20、rmine the zero-span stability ratio (that is, ZSSR)by dividing the zero-span tensile result of the alkali treatedsample by the zero-span tensile result from the correspondinguntreated (control) sample. The results can be reported as adecimal ratio, such as 0.921 or as a percentage, such as 92.1 %.Re

21、porting 3 significant figures is recommended.14.2 The zero-span stability ratios will be reported individu-ally for each time interval sample and/or as an average value ofall the time interval samples tested.14.3 Note that higher ratios will be observed for pulps thathave greater strength stability

22、in an alkaline environment.15. Report15.1 Report the zero-span stability ratios (ZSSR) deter-mined for each time interval sample as a decimal fraction or asa percentage along with the average zero span stability ratiodetermined from all time interval samples. Since 1N NaOH isthe standard test soluti

23、on, it need not be specified, but ifanother test solution is used in addition to the standardsolution, its composition must be specified.16. Precision and Bias16.1 Precision and bias for the zero-span tensile test aregiven in TAPPI T 231. Repeatability within a laboratory isfrom 3 to 5 %, and reprod

24、ucibility between laboratories (30samples at 3 laboratories) was 10 %.16.2 Repeatability of zero span tensile tests used to calcu-late stability ratios was found to be 5 % based on 14 sets ofcontrol handsheets made at different times by 2 operatorswhere each set was tested 4 times by cutting 2 test

25、strips from2 handsheets from each set (64 pulls).16.3 Repeatability of the stability ratio is partly dependenton the type of fibers tested (SSK, NSK, sulfite, mechanical,etc.) and the duration of the test (1 day, 1 week, 4 weeks). Forsamples determined according to section 13 in uncoveredbeakers, th

26、e repeatability, expressed as a % coefficient ofvariation, was 5 to 8 %.17.
