Characterization of cellulose pulp

To develop, optimize the pulp process, testing and characterization of the pulp is important. Partly to know which properties are affected when process conditions change.

Purpose

Grinding pulp for sheet and testing gives a good overview of the end product's important properties for good quality. Evaluation of the fiber composition or the effect of milk chemistry is also possible. See RISE opportunities below. It is also possible to order mapping in use to follow important parameters.
