A composition of a loose mass of comminuted raw cotton linter fibers has a bulk density of at least 8 g/100 ml and at least 50 % of the fibers in the mass passes through a US standard sieve size #10 (2 mm opening). This composition is made by obtaining a loose mass of first cut, second cut, third cut, or mill runs raw cotton linters or mixtures thereof and comminuting the loose mass of raw cotton linters to a size wherein at least 50 % pass through a US standard sieve size #10 (2 mm opening). This composition is used to make cellulose ether derivatives.

Eco-friendly Cotton Seed Delinting Plant :-

It is design & development and testing of a pollution-free cotton seed delinting plant. The capacity of the indigenous cotton seed delinting plant is 1.0 TPH tonnes/hr. The plant is based on dry HCL gas generation nitrocellulosewithout the use of sulphuric acid and has been installed at India, The new eco-friendly technology has been dully certified by the Pollution Control Board. The machines have been coated with taflan and lined with FRP for corrosion resistance. Electric power consumption has been minimized and the initial cost of installation is considerably lower than other imported and indigenous plants. The cotton linters after the delinting process are converted into a powder which could be further refined to pharmaceutical grade cellulose. Thus, the process of obtaining clean cotton seed after delinting has been made completely eco-ftiendly without any adverse environmental effect. The technology is available for commercialization.

Typical Uses…

Use of Cotton Linters
Use of Cotton Linters

etherCotton fibre has a very high alpha cellulose content, which makes this pulp ideal for producing long life archival papers. First cut cotton linters find uses in Artists Drawing papers, which must have a resistance to fading, neutrality and stability. These are heavier weight papers were the finish varies from a coarse surface for paint to a smooth surface for graphic work. First cut linters also find uses in some boards (eg. greetings cards)and Mill Run and First cut linters are used as extenders to the much longer Staple Cotton fibres, in currency papers.

Second cut linters are valued for their bulk and purity. In addition to uses in the above grades, Second cut linters are used in Fine and Security to add bulk and prestige value. For Fine papers requiring a good formation, care should be taken when selecting the linter grade to ensure that it is clear of “Fibre Knots”. The latter, if present in large numbers in the pulp, can give rise to a poor formation or a “Fish Eye” problem.

The cleaned seed is then sent to gin stands, similar to those in cotton saw gins, where the linters are removed from the seed (delinted). This linter removal process is usually done twice and the fibers are collected and pressed into 600 pound bales. The linters of the highest grade, referred to as first-cut linters (longer more resilient fibers) are used in manufacturing non-chemical products, such as medical supplies, twine, and candle wicks. The second-cut linters (short fibers or fuzz), removed in further delinting steps, are incorporated in chemical products, found in various foods, toiletries, film, and paper.

Typical Pulp Properties…

acetateCotton linter pulps are available as ECF and TCF grades bleached to 88%+ ISO Brightness. Unrefined these pulps have a very high bulk, air permeance and opacity. On refining there is some development of Schopper Reigler wetness, but little development of strength properties. The opacity increases as refining proceeds due to the sheet closing up as the fibre shortens. The largest change on refining is a loss of air permeance.

FIBRE PROPERTIES OF COTTON LINTERS…

Cotton Linters are usually obtained by delinting ginned seeds. Cotton Linters are obtained in 2 stages and 1st Cut, cotton linter have longer fibre length than 2nd Cut, cotton linters. Cotton Linters are very useful for paper board industry and thus wood pulp and other natural resources are saved.

This cotton is the fuzz on cotton seeds which have been combed out the long fiber cotton used for cloth. This fuzz or linters is cut off the seeds before the seeds are made into cottonseed oil. The First Cut Cotton Linters or First Shear cotton linters are cut off the seeds before the seeds go to the mill. This First Shear cotton linters is very resilient and springy. It is used in higher grades of cotton batting. Although very resilient, First Shear cotton Linters , by itself, is not very stable in a futon. It is best used in combination with staple cotton. Second Shear linter cotton is a lower quality cotton that is cut from cotton seeds at a cottonseed oil mill.

RAW COTTON LINTERS COMPOSITION, METHOD OF MAKING AND USES…

In China, the cotton lints is divided into three ranks: 1st.cut, 2nd.cut or 3rd.cut.

1st.cut:The cotton fibre hand-pull length should be over 13 mms (includes 13 mms). Be mainly used for knitting cotton blanket, sweat shirt…etc..

2nd.cut:The cotton fibre hand-pull length is less than 13 mms;and the weight of the fibre that the fibre length is less than 3 mms(include 3 mms), shares the percentage of all weight to be less than 58%. 2nd.cut mainly used to smokeless gunpowder and film, deluxe sheet etc..

3rd.cut: The cotton fibre hand-pull length is less than 13 mms;and the weight of the fibre that the fibre length is less than 3 mms(include 3 mms), shares the percentage of all weight to be more than 58%.3rd.cut mainly used for the deluxe sheet which manufactures a chemical fiber, such as cotton pulp.
