Unbleached pulp and paper properties of soda-anthraquinone pulping of paraserianthes falcataria / Muslyza Che Hussin
This study was conducted to investigate the potential of Batai (Paraserianthes falcataria ) as a raw material for the pulp and paper industry. Three batai trees with a DBH of an average DBH of 26.7cm and an average tree height of 10.55 m were harvested from Donghwa Plantation in Merbok, Sg. Petani,...

The study also investigate the effects of the tree portion (bottom and top), percentage NaOH (16%,18% and 20%) used, percentage of AQ (control & 0.1%) and beating revolutions (0, 5000, 10000, 15000, 20000 and 25000 rev) on the unbleached pulp and paper properties.
