oxygen delignified kraft pulp from eucalyptus (e. urophylla × e. grandis) was catalytically pretreated in aerobic condition using ammonium persulfate in present of catalists like cupric acetate and/or cobalt acetate in acetic acid-water solution, i. e. s2o82--cu2+, s2o82--co2+ and s2o82--(cu2++co2+). final bleached pulp after pretreatment with the three catalytic systems showed higher delignifi...
