Abstract
In order to obtain a good pulp with suitable qualities for wrapping purpose, the bagasse should be sufficiently depithed before digestion and also the SiO2 in the black liquor be removed.
The usual differences between bagasse pulp and wood pulp of the same freeness are as follows:-
1. Extracts with 10% NaOH sol : greater
2. Beating time : shorter
3. Bursting resistance : higher
4. tearing resistance : slightly lower
5. Folding endurance : higher
6. Opacity : lower
