THE INFLUENCE OF TMP FIBRE FLEXIBILITY ON FLOCCULATION AND FORMATION

Fibre flexibility is often anticipated to play a role in fibre flocculation phenomena. In this study, 3 thermomechanical pulps (TMPs) were sampled along a post-refining line. The only fibre morphological property that varied was fibre flexibility. These TMP samples were then tested for fibre floccul...
