Monomers
Adlite® 1F LowPCF GE
Used as a reducing agent in textiles, pulp, and paper, hydrosulfites from BASF.
General
With a unique range of benefits for the pulp and paper industry, Adlite® offers new ways to approach thermomechanical pulping (TMP). Adlite® provides a brightness gain comparable to oxidative bleaching, a higher wood yield, substantially lower energy consumption, and less demand of chemicals in the entire production process from stock preparation to wastewater treatment. In addition, Adlite®'s stabilization system will allow refiners to optimize production processes and cost structure, while providing extra degrees of freedom to design paper grades. In more details, Adlite® is the first reductive solution to offer a degree of brightness comparable to oxidative bleaching while keeping the uniformity of the wood fiber intact. Adlite® facilitates a smooth separation of the fibers out of the wood structure. Whereas the oxidative process requires the handling of various additional chemicals, Adlite® just adds just one substance to your paper production and thus, allows safe and easy handling. Since Adlite® offers high selective reaction control, no unwanted side reactions occur during the process. This avoids corrosion and deposits and your refiners run trouble-free with higher productivity for a longer period of time. The quality of your final product is much less dependent on the quality of the wood. Adlite® preserves the wood fiber during the milling process, the desired paper grade can be achieved with less energy and wood consumption. The same goes for the bleaching process: more ISO brightness for less energy. In general, Adlite® makes it much easier to meet environmental requirements.
