Abstract

Filler materials commonly used to improve interdiction, optical and compensational characteristics of a part of fibrous materials needed in manufacture of paper to reduce production costs. One of the most common materials used in this area is clay and Nano clay. In this study, to enhance the Nano clay potential of improving the features listed and However, to avoid compromising the mechanical properties of paper, This material reprocessed with homogenizer and Turned into stable colloidal Nano clay with nanometer Dimensions. According to the results, Nano clay reprocessed with homogenizer in comparison with raw Nano clay In the presence of preservative had more ash and durability, more Density and resistance to airflow. However, the value of Burst and tear resistance slightly reduced. Finally, high levels of homogenized Nano clay Persisting, Indicates that Effluent Contamination has been reduced and improved the system economically.
