DESCRIPTION OF RELATED ART

Tens of thousands of archives, books, paintings, newspapers and other paper sheet materials are preserved in various libraries, archives, museums and other units. These paper sheet materials are the precious cultural heritage and have important historical and cultural values that can not be reproduced. A plurality of paper sheet documents have appeared mildew, crushing, pollution, moth and other issues influenced by various factors with the passage of time, and the protection of these cultural materials is facing severe challenges. Despite a plurality of research on acid removal and sterilization of paper sheet in modern times, people are still searching for an ideal paper sheet protection technology. Among them, the traditional solution deacidification method needs to impregnate the sample to be treated in deacidification agent, which can easily lead to paper sheet deformation and discoloration, and the treatment efficiency is low. Although the traditional gas phase deacidification method has high deacidification efficiency and comprehensive effect of insecticide and bactericide, its requirement of high vacuum makes it has high requirements on the devices with big investment. Also, the deacidification agent is toxic. At the same time, the current technology of paper sheet protection is carried out in divisions, which the efficiency is low and the operation is complex.


Atmospheric pressure non-equilibrium plasma contains particles with high energy, which can quickly deacidify paper sheet at room temperature and pressure. For example, CN202543729U patent literature relates to an arc-discharging paper deacidification device, wherein the device includes an air storage tank, a glass rotameter, a sealed liquid storage tank, an insulating ceramic reactor, an arc-discharging spray gun, an insulating ceramic plate, a fixed frame, a first control motor, a second control motor and a computer. Under the condition of room temperature and pressure, the arc-discharging paper deacidification device processes a paper sheet by using a gaseous deacidification agent and arc-discharging jet flow to change the pH value of the paper sheet to a neutral value. The device is simple and easy to operate, and has the advantages of high processing speed and remarkable effect, and no pollution to the environment during the process; and the color and appearance of the processed paper sheet are not changed, and no ink diffusion.


But there are some problems such as low efficiency and uneven deacidification in the said device.

and a plasma power supply supplying power to the metal base plate and the discharging electrode, and generating linear plasma.


The present invention generates plasma between the metal base plate, which bears the paper, and the discharge electrode, which matches with the metal base plate, to sterilize and deacidify pretreatment of the paper sheet to be protected. The paper sheet is deacidified by spraying deacidification agent, and the sliding rail is provided to guide the movement of the discharging electrode and the sprayer, thereby improving the working efficiency and uniformity.


In order to load the paper sheet to be protected conveniently, preferably, a bearing guide rail is provided in the working cover, and the metal base plate is slidably arranged on the bearing rail, and the bearing guide rail and the sliding rail are horizontally arranged and are perpendicular to each other in space. The arrangement can move the metal base plate out of the working cover for loading paper sheet, which is convenient and fast.


The insulating layer is made of polymer material, glass, ceramics and other insulating materials. The insulation layer itself can adopt the prior art. Generally speaking, the insulating layer is thin. When the insulating layer is placed on the top of the metal base plate to provide effective support. The space above the insulating layer is a discharge area.


In order to install and manufacture conveniently, preferably, the sprayer includes:


a first slide block movable along the sliding rail;


a nozzle fixed on the first slide block and arranged horizontally, the nozzle toward a side of the insulating layer is provided with a slit-shaped discharge outlet arranged along the longitudinal direction of the nozzle.


In order to improve the working efficiency of the sprayer, preferably, multiple nozzles are arranged side by side.


In order to keep the sprayer can continuously spray the atomized deacidification agent on the paper sheet surface, a roller type cleaning brush is provided below the static position of the sprayer for cleaning the slit-shaped discharged outlet, which is convenient and quick.


In order to make the spraying of deacidification agent uniformly, preferably, the device for protecting paper sheet includes a deacidification tank and an atomizer, a liquid inlet of the atomizer is connected to the deacidification tank, and an atomization outlet of the atomizer is connected to the sprayer. Atomized deacidification agent has better penetration effect and can effectively reduce the dosage of deacidification agent.


Preferably, the atomizer is ultrasonic atomizer.


In order to install and manufacture conveniently, preferably, the discharging electrode moves along the sliding rail by a second slide block which the discharging electrode is fixed with.


In order to improve the degree of automation, preferably, the device for protecting paper sheet is provided with a driving mechanism which drives the reciprocating motion of the first slide block and the second slide block respectively. The driving mechanism can be driven by a typical motor.


In order to adjust the deacidification agent mist atomized inside the working cover, the mist treating system includes a draught fan and an air flow passage, one side of the air flow passage is connected to the draught fan, and the other side of the air flow passage is connected to the induction port on the working cover, a mist suction net is included in an inside of the air flow passage. Air plasma discharge is sensitive to the humidity of working environment. When the humidity is too high or too low, it will affect the discharge state, and then affect the deacidification effect of the paper sheet, and even causes arc discharge damaging the paper sheet and the device. Through the negative pressure generated by the draught fan and the adjustment and guidance of the airflow passage, the spray-like deacidification agent from the sprayer can be propelled to press the paper sheet tightly and to move evenly, so that the deacidification agent mist can fully contact with the paper sheet and evenly distribute on the surface of the paper sheet to be protected, thus improving the deacidification protection effect of the paper sheet. In addition, the use of mist treating system can make the deacidification agent mist have a clear moving direction, and the deacidification agent mist do not overflow, thus reducing the coagulation of the deacidification agent mist on other working parts, which not only reduces the consumption of the deacidification agent but also protects other parts. At the same time, the excess deacidification agent mist in the working cover can be recovered by using the mist suction net in the airflow passage. When the sprayer is scanned, the outside air can be introduced into the working cover and the gas in the working cover can be discharged simultaneously through the mist treating system. In this process, the atomized deacidification agent can be completely absorbed by the mist suction net. It not only achieves the harmless treatment of the exhausted gas, improves the environmental protection of the device, but also ensures the stability of the subsequent plasma discharge operation by controlling the air humidity in the working cover, and improves the safety and reliability of the device.


In order to improve the efficiency of mist treatment, the mist suction net is a three-dimensional porous filter net woven by composite metal wires, in which the composite metal wires are based on metal wires and the surface is coated with acidic adsorbents. Acidic adsorbents can use various acidic adsorbents in the prior art, such as acidic polyacrylamide, etc. The mist suction net is filled in the air passage. By selecting the material of the mist suction net and the pore diameter of the porous filter net, the atomized deacidification agent in the gas is fully absorbed.


Preferably, the diameter of mist suction net is 0.5 mm-3 mm.


In order to make the paper sheet attaching close to the insulating layer and improving the effect of protective treatment, preferably, the top surface of the insulating layer is provided with a plurality of vacuum suction holes running through the bottom surface of the metal base plate, and a vacuum tube is embedded in the bottom surface of the metal base plate. The side walls of the vacuum tube are connected with the vacuum suction holes, and the vacuum tube is connected with a vacuum pump. The vacuum suction hole can suck the paper sheet to be protected on the insulating layer, so as to stretch and straighten the paper sheet, make the paper sheet fully and evenly contact with the deacidification agent, and fully and evenly contact with the plasma, so as to improve the deacidification effect. In addition, because paper sheet is made of fibers, there are numerous fine and interconnected channels. When atomized deacidification agent contacts with the fibers, the micro-negative pressure formed through the vacuum suction holes can help the penetration of deacidification agent in the paper sheet, thus ensuring the full penetration of deacidification agent into paper, achieving the effect of complete deacidification and not easy to return acid.


In order to install and manufacture conveniently, preferably, an installation groove is provided on the bottom surface of the metal base plate, and the vacuum suction holes are connected to the groove wall of the installation groove, the vacuum tube is embedded in the installation groove.


In order to obtain a higher energy density of linear cryogenic plasma and improve the working efficiency of the device, the plasma power supply is an intermediate frequency high voltage power supply with an operating frequency of 1 kHz to 1 MHz, an operating voltage of 0.5 kV-40 kV, and an operating power of 20 W-2 KW. Preferably, the operating frequency of plasma power supply is 4 kHz to 40 kHz, the operating voltage is 0.8 kV-20 kV, the operating power is 80 W-800 W. Preferably, the operating frequency of plasma power supply is 6 kHz to 20 kHz, the operating voltage is 1.5 kV-10 kV, the operating power is 100 W-500 W.


In order to obtain a higher energy density of linear cryogenic plasma and improve the safety and stability of the device, preferably, the distance between the discharging electrode and the insulating layer is 0.08 mm-5 mm. Preferably, the distance between the discharging electrode and the insulating layer is 0.5 mm-4 mm.


The present invention can generate suitable medium barrier to block the low temperature plasma by adjusting the plasma power supply and combining the appropriate distance between the discharge electrode and the insulating layer.


The low temperature plasma produced by the intermediate frequency plasma power supply and medium barrier has a more concentrated electro-magnetic field, the plasma energy density is higher and the ionization degree is higher than the plasma produced by other methods such as radio frequency. This makes it has more energetic molecules, electrons and ions. And since the temperature of plasma processing area is at room temperature, one can have better control of the heat generated by the plasma discharge, which can fully treat the paper sheet and effectively protect the micro-structure of fibers, ensure the mechanical properties of the treated paper, and make it more friendly to the fragile objects to be protected, such as paper sheet.


The high-energy electrons, ions and free radicals produced in the process of gas discharge generating plasma have high energy. When the linear plasma generated by the device of the present invention is used to scan the paper sheet, the electrons, ions and free radicals generated not only interact with the paper sheet fibers, but also contact with the bacteria and fungi that grow in paper fibers, then destroying the cell membrane of the bacteria and fungi, thereby destroying their cell structure and achieving sterilization effect. At the same time, the selection of plasma power supply, working parameters and distance of discharge electrodes involved in the invention ensures that linear plasma can destroy the cell membrane of the bacteria and fungi without destroying the paper sheet fibers wherein the main component of the paper sheet fibers are cellulose.


In order to remove the ozone generated during discharge, preferably, an ozone removal pipeline is provided above the sliding rail, ozone is removed by heating at 40-300° C.


In order to improve the integration, all the above components are installed in the chassis for easy operation and movement.


The present invention also provides a method for protecting paper sheet applying the device, the method includes:


(1) the paper sheet to be protected is placed on the insulating layer, the discharging electrode starts to discharge and moves along the sliding rail, the paper sheet to be protected is treated by the plasma;


(2) the sprayer moves along the sliding rail and sprays the atomized deacidification agent onto the surface of the paper sheet treated by the plasma.


Preferably, the vacuum pump is turned on and the paper sheet is pretreated by the negative pressure generated by the vacuum suction hole before the discharge electrode starts to discharge. The pretreated paper sheet helps the deacidification agent to penetrate the paper sheet, thereby ensuring the full penetration of the deacidification agent into the paper sheet, to achieve the effect of complete deacidification and not easy acid return.


The present invention firstly performs vacuum suction treatment, then plasma treatment, and finally deacidification agent spray on the paper sheet to this invention realizes the sterilization before the protection of the paper sheet to prevent the acid ingredients produced by the bacteria and fungi growing on the paper fibers. At the same time, plasma pretreatment can open the microchannels of paper fibers, which helps the subsequent deacidification agent penetrating into the inside of paper fibers to achieve the effect of complete deacidification and non-acid return.


The conditions for the method provided in the present invention are mild. Steps (1) and (2) are carried out at room temperature and pressure. Also, the operation of the present invention does not require special gas protection. Steps (1) and (2) are carried out in an air atmosphere.


In Step (1), it does not take long to treat the paper sheet to be protected by plasma. The treatment time can be shortened to several seconds according to the acidification degree of the paper sheet to be protected and the infection degree of bacteria and fungi.


In Step (2), the flow rate of spraying the deacidifying agent can be adjusted according to the degree of acidification of the paper. If the degree of acidification is severe, the spraying flow rate can be adjusted to be relatively large. Preferably, the spraying flow rate of the deacidifying agent is 5 to 500 mL/h, that is, 5 mL to 500 mL of deacidification agent is sprayed onto the surface of the plasma-treated paper every hour.


The deacidification agent is a liquid form with alkaline pH value, and various deacidification agent in the prior art can be used to neutralize acidification groups to form an alkaline buffer zone, such as magnesium bicarbonate aqueous solution, calcium hydroxide aqueous solution, calcium propionate ethanol solution, isobutylamine ethanol aqueous solution, tea water, radish juice, barium hydroxide aqueous solution, methanol magnesium methanol aqueous solution, etc. The pH value of deacidification agent ranges from 8 to 12.


Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:


(1) The method for protecting paper sheet of the present invention is more reasonable, the treatment time is short, the acid removal is thorough, and the acid return is not easy.


(2) Paper sheet treatment by using the present invention can effectively prevent the damage of prior art to the paper sheet, thereby further expanding the protection scope of paper sheet.


(3) The present invention can simultaneously realize sterilization and deacidification of paper sheet, and the device operation involved is simple, convenient, safe, environmental friendly and with high efficiency.


(4) The present invention protects the paper sheet without immersing the paper sheet to be protected in the protective solution, and solves the problems of paper sheet deformation and handwriting halo caused by the traditional liquid phase protection method.

Comparative Embodiment 3

Compared with the embodiment 1, the difference is that there is no vacuum suction holes on the top of the insulating layer in this device, and the paper sheet is not pretreated by the negative pressure generated by the vacuum suction holes before the discharge electrode starts to work. The selected samples are the same as the embodiment 1, and the other operation parameters are the same as the embodiment 1.


In order to quantify the protective effect and to judge the effect of protective treatment on paper sheet, the pH value is measured according to standard procedures, the pH value and the total number of bacterial colonies of the paper sheet treated by hygrothermal aging are measured according to the standard procedure (according to the national standard GB/T 22894-2008). The results are shown in table 4.
