Description
Paper pulp made from chemically treated wood fibers. Chemical pulp is produced by treating debarked, ground wood with strong solutions to dissolve the lignin. The undissolved cellulose fibers are washed, rinsed, sometimes bleached, then used to produce paper. The three main types of solutions used to make chemical pulp are:
- alkaline: sodium sulfide followed by caustic soda solution (kraft process),
- alkaline: caustic soda (soda process),
- acid: acid bisulfite (sulfite process).
Synonyms and Related Terms
