  1. 1. Conversion of Wood and Non-wood Paper-grade Pulps to Dissolving-grade Pulps

    Author : Viviana Köpcke; Monica Ek; Herbert Sixta; KTH; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Wood fibre and forest products; Träfiber- och virkeslära;

    Abstract : Dissolving-grade pulps are commonly used for the production of cellulose derivatives and regenerated cellulose. To obtain products of high quality, these so-called "special" pulps must fulfill certain requirements, such as high cellulose content, low hemicellulose content, a uniform molecular weight distribution and high cellulose reactivity.

  2. 2. Improvement on cellulose accessibility and reactivity of different wood pulps

    Author : Viviana Köpcke; Monica Ek; KTH; []
    Keywords : LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; cellulose; accessibility; reactivity; enzymatic treatment; mechanical treatment; chemical treatment; dissolving pulp; paper grade pulps; Wood fibre and forest products; Träfiber- och virkeslära;

    Abstract : Cellulosans tillgänglighet och reaktivitet är nyckelparametrar vid framställning av regenererad cellulosa och cellulosaderivat. Det är välkänt att på grund av cellulosans kristallina struktur är tillgängligheten begränsad för lösningsmedel och olika reagens. READ MORE

  3. 3. The influence of Pulp Type and Hot-pressing Conditions on Paper Strength Development

    Author : Tove Joelsson; Per Engstrand; Gunilla Pettersson; Anna Svedberg; Tom Lindström; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hot pressing; lignin; HYP; high strength; wet strength; softening temperature; kraft pulp; lignocellulose;

    Abstract : The hot-pressing technology has proven to have the potential for manufacturing of strong, wet stable materials based on eco-friendly renewable and recyclable lignocellulose. The purpose of this work was to study how the pulp characteristics and the hot-pressing conditions affect the dry and wet strength properties of paper. READ MORE

  4. 4. Extended impregnation kraft cooking of softwood : Effects on reject, yield, pulping uniformity, and physical properties

    Author : Katarina Karlström; Mikael E. Lindström; Elisabet Brännvall; Kristofer Gamstedt; Anna Jacobs; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high kappa number pulp; extended impregnation; softwood; spruce; picea abies; pine; pinus sylvestris; uniform delignification; kappa number distribution; reject; yield; tensile index; tensile stiffness index; SCT; starch multilayers; mechano-sorptive creep; hygroexpansion; dimensional stability; eucalypt; birch; acacia; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Abstract : Converting wood into paper is a complex process involving many different stages, one of which is pulping. Pulping involves liberating the wood fibres from each other, which can be done either chemically or mechanically. READ MORE

  5. 5. Wood fibre deformation in combined shear and compression

    Author : Federica De Magistris; Anders Eriksson; Ola Dahlblom; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Arcan; compression; density; energy; finite element analysis; Iosipescu; Picea abies; shear; wood; Cellulose and paper engineering; Cellulosa- och pappersteknik;

    Abstract : Mechanical pulping for producing pulps from softwood suitable for printing grade papers, like news, is a highly energy-intensive process consuming around 2000 kWh/t in electrical energy. Due to increasing energy costs and environmental issues there is a high demand for decreasing this energy consumption. READ MORE
