Recycled Old Corrugated Container Fibers for Wood‐Fiber Cement Sheets

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Recycled pulp of old corrugated containers (OCCs) was studied as a possible fiber source for wood‐fiber cement (WFC) sheets. This industry currently largely relies on kraft pulp, an expensive fiber source. Thus, WFC sheets were made using less costly OCC fibers utilizing various types of treatments including fiber fractionation (FF) and refining to 500
