A method for manufacture of loaded paper or paperboard products, comprising the steps of separating at least one process stream from the papermaking process, wherein the process stream includes fines and/or filler; combining the process stream with long fibers and thickening to form a residue; treating the residue to form fiber-filler complexes; and using the fiber-filler complexes in the papermaking process to form the paper.

Method to manufacture paper using fiber filler complexes

The present invention relates to a novel composite product which is composed of a fibrocrystalline heterogeneous structure consisting of:

Methods of manufacture for highly loaded fiber-based composite material

The present invention relates to a novel composite product which is composed of a fibrocrystalline heterogeneous structure consisting of: on the one hand a plurality of fibers of expanded specific surface area and of hydrophilic character, having a substantial quantity of microfibrils on their surface, and on the other hand crystals of precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC), organized essentially in clusters of granules, the majority of which trap the microfibrils and are joined directly thereto by mechanical bonding.

Highly loaded fiber-based composite material

This invention relates to a process for manufacturing a flat, fibrous, supple substrate, difficult to tear, said process consisting in:
