Nitric acid-alkali two-stage pulping of wheat straw, industrial hemp, and Miscanthus x giganteus
Dariusz Danielewicz
Abstract:Index levels of the process of pulping wheat straw (WS), industrial hemp stalks (HS), and Miscanthus × giganteus (MS) using the nitric acid-alkali (NA−A) method (HNO3/KOH and HNO3/NH4OH two-stage sequential delignification systems) were determined. The research showed, as a rule, a lower total yield of NA−A pulps than kraft pulps from WS, HS, and MS, and a lower level of the tensile index and tear resistance compared to the properties of soda-AQ and kraft pulps presented in other studies, as well as the author… Show more
