In this paper, prehydrolysis was used as the first treatment of poplar slab for producing high-grade dissolving pulp, the optimum prehydrolysis conditions of poplar were obtained as followings: liquid ratio 1:6, H2SO41.0%, the highest temperature of 160±5°C, heating time of 90min, holding time of 120min. Hydrolyzed poplar slab was cooked to determine the effects of various alkali charges on pentosans, alpha-cellulose, kappa number, and degree ofpolymerization (DP). The optimum cooking process conditions of poplar were obtained as followings: alkali dosage 24%, sulfidity 5% ,the highest temperature of 160±5°C, heating time of 60min, holding time of 120min.Cooked pulps were bleached using Op-Q-P sequence. As a consequence, the poplar slab dissolving pulp of pentosan 3.73%, alpha-cellulose 95.13%,kappa number1.58, brightness 86.4%ISO, degree of polymerization (DP) 488.84 was obtained in our laboratory.
The foamed plastics are not bio-degradable and not readily recyclable. How to substitute new foamed buffer materials with lower pollution for foamed plastics became a popular research topic. The paper discussed the effects of microwave power, natural bonding agent, lubricating agent and crosslink agent on foamed buffer material with fibers of old newspaper and inorganic foaming agent. The result showed that increasing of microwave power could be beneficial to decrease the molded time and density of foamed buffer material with fibers of old newspaper. The best foamed properties were achieved with proper dosage of natural bonding agent like wheat flour, glyceryl monostearate sodium borate at the microwave power of 575W.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
