Effect of particle size on the surface properties and morphology of ground flax [PDF]
Flax fibers were ground with a ball-mill and four fractions with different size ranges were collected by sieving. These were tested for water sorption, degree of polymerization (DP), copper number, hydroxyl number and analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD),

The effects of a double polyelectrolyte adsorption of poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and xylan (Xyl) on a recycled unbleached softwood kraft pulp were studied. The kinetics of PAH adsorption on this pulp was analyzed by building adsorption isotherms and by estimating the surface nitrogen adsorbed through the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)

Conversion of WastePaper into Dissolving Pulp: A Path for Circular Bioeconomy
The potential of wastepaper to produce dissolving pulp was demonstrated in this article. By employing and optimizing chemical processes to wastepaper pulp, a noteworthy increase of 84 % in pulp Fock reactivity was achieved (from 45.6 % to 84.1 %). The pulp characteristics were followed throughout the different treatments allowing better understanding ...
