Poor cross-machine direction (CD) moisture profiles result in non-uniform paper end-use properties, converting problems, and poor runnability in the form of wrinkles and breaks. Fiber costs (such as heavy edges) and energy consumption can be higher than when moisture is more uniform. Final moisture...
There are numerous chemicals and chemical compounds used in manufacturing and industrial processes. Some of these chemicals and compounds can be hazardous. For the sake of everyone's health and safety, workers must be informed about the substances used in the work area and must know how to handle...
This Technical Information Paper provides some basic guidelines for the development of a box plant quality manual.
Measuring the mass of stock on the forming fabric at the wet end of the paper machine is very useful for optimizing the machine's performance. An optimized wet end can have favorable benefits to paper quality, paper throughput, energy usage and paper clothing life cycles. The technique used to...
This document is to be used as a general reference for guidance in selecting the appropriate stainless steel piping specification for Pulp Mill service. It also identifies additional quality requirements that may be considered extensions of these basic specifications.
This document provides guidelines and describes quality control and testing procedures for application of either stainless steel or nickel-base corrosion resistant weld metal overlay (hereafter referred to as CRO) on internal surfaces in continuous digesters, impregnation vessels, and batch...
The current TIP provides basic information for personnel to unload and store bulk concentrated caustic soda safely. It is vitally important that any new bulk concentrated caustic soda facility design be undertaken with the advice from a producer of bulk concentrated caustic soda in order to...
1.1 This practice describes the measurement of dry film thickness of coating films by microscopic observation of precision angular cuts in the coating film. Use of these procedures may require repair of the coating film. This practice is intended to supplement the manufacturers' instructions for...
1.1 This specification covers safety requirements, test methods, and warnings for child safety locks and latches intended to be installed by consumers to the interior of residential cabinet doors or drawers to restrict access to household cabinets by children under the age of 48 months. 1.2 Child...
This document specifies methods for determining fracture toughness in terms of stress intensity factor (K), crack tip opening displacement or CTOD (δ) and experimental equivalent of the J-integral for welds in metallic materials ( J). This document complements ISO 12135, which covers all...
