Physical and Chemical Properties

Paper fiber type: softwood, hard pine. Using transmitted light microscopy, fibers are identified by the presence of fenestriform pits that occur in doubles and singles across the fiber. Dentate ray tracheids are present. Appearance with Graff "C" stain: varies with pulping and bleaching. Average dimensions of fibers: length 3.1mm, width 35μm. Common pulping method: kraft and sulfite.
