For the purpose of examining the characteristic behaviors of new dissolving pulp manufactured by new method, several tests were carried out in comparing with Buckye's V
5 and V
X.
Results are as follows;
(1) The reactivity of this new pulp in emulsion xanthation is better than those of Buckye's V
5 and V
X.
(2) From the results of the solubility curve by NaOH and the distribution curve of lateral order, it is considered that this new pulp is very profitable for viscose manufacture.
(3) In the swelling test by 79 % H
3PO
4, this new pulp is already swollen in spiral type, but V
5 and V
X are not yet swollen in spiral type.
(4) The fractional dissolution curves of samples by ethyl acetate-ethyl alcohol mixture, indicate that this new pulp also seems to be very profitable for dissolving pulp.
