this study was conducted to compare the yield and strength properties of soda and kraft pulp produced from populus deltoeides sapwood and heartwood. initially fiber length, lignin content in both sapwood and heartwood were measured. then from either sapwood or heartwood pulps were prepared with using soda and kraft processes, handsheets were made from this pulp and mechanical properties were me...

in this research, effect of using hornbeam and beech branch woods in admixture with birch stem wood on their cmp pulp properties. using percentage of branch woods, with 20% constant content for birch stem wood, were 0, 16, 40, 56 and 80 in final mixture of hardwoods. the results indicated that cooking time, to reach 85% yield and under same cooking condition, and also refining quantity, to reac...

Although there are opportunities to reduce electrical energy demand in unit processes of mechanical pulp-based paper and paperboard production, this may not be financially beneficial. This is generally because optimization connected reduced refiner electricity pulping systems also results less steam available for the drying paper. As modern high consistency produce approximately one ton each MW...

Preventive measures have helped to minimize the occurrence of dental caries. However, premature loss of primary teeth on account of dental caries still remains a common problem among children. The pulpotomy technique has been the choice for treating vital primary and young permanent teeth with carious, mechanical and traumatic pulp exposures. The ideal pulpotomy medicament should be bioinductiv...

Orthodontic forces are known to produce mechanical damage and inflammatory reactions in the periodontium and dental pulp, as well as inflammatory mediators, e.g. prostaglandins, interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB ligand, in the periodontal ligament (PDL) and dental pulp. We have studied the effects of aging on the production of...

The main objective of this study was to explore the suitability of Vitis vinifera as a raw material and alkaline lignin as a natural binder for fiberboard manufacturing. In the first step, Vitis vinifera was steamexploded through a thermo-mechanical vapor process in a batch reactor, and the obtained pulp was dried, ground, and pressed to produce the boards. The effects of pretreatment factors a...

This study was devoted to the development of pulp Luffa Cclindrica and its characterization paper (annual plant fiber of the family Cucurbitaceae). Baking at soda helps to achieve a high level of delignification (Kappa ≤ 10) and high yield (≈ 67%).The beatability stack Valley is comparable to refined wood fibers, the fibers develop a normally time with good hydrophilic pro...

AIM To determine in vivo, the degree of microbial reduction after chemo-mechanical preparation of human root canals containing necrotic pulp tissue when using two endodontic irrigating reagents, sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) or chlorhexidine gel (CHX). METHODOLOGY Thirty-two single rooted teeth with necrotic pulp were divided into two groups. One group (n=16) was irrigated with 2.5% NaOCl, whil...

Worldwide cultivation of corn is expanding, due in part to the increasing production of bioethanol. In consequence, huge amounts of corn stalks residues are been produced. Instead of incineration, we transformed the corn stalks into a semichemical pulp and successfully applied it as reinforcement in polypropylene composites. PP composites reinforced with 40% wt corn stalk single fibers were pre...

The adsorption of xylan on pulp fibers improves the strength properties of paper. However, the optical properties are decreased significantly. The objective of our research was to bleach hardwood kraft pulp with adsorbed birch xylan by hydrogen peroxide and study the effect of bleaching parameters on paper properties. The bleaching parameters studied included bleaching temperature, time, initia...
