Ebook: Handbook of Paper and Pulp Chemicals

Paper and pulp processing and additive chemicals represent a $10 billion a year global industry. These chemicals are an integral part of the total papermaking process from pulp slurry, through sheet formation, to effluent disposal. Environmental concerns, increased use of recycled waste paper as a replacement for virgin pulp, changes in bleaching and pulping processes, increased efficiency requirements for the papermaking process, limits on effluent discharge as well as international competitiveness have greatly impacted the paper and pulp chemical additive market.
This book is designed to function as a selection tool for papermaking additives at all points of the process. It centralizes information on currently available chemicals from the major manufacturers of these products by profiling both trade name and generic chemicals, detailing their properties, uses, use levels, regulatory status, toxicology, sources for purchase, etc.
