2019 Data Sheet BLEACHED Pulp Sugar Cane Bagasse - P2 PDF

This document summarizes the properties and uses of bleached pulp obtained from sugar cane bagasse. The pulp has similar fiber length and coarseness as southern mixed hardwood pulp. It is normally used in printing, writing, photocopy, coated, and barrier papers. Due to lower refining needs, sugar cane fiber provides energy savings. Key properties include pH of 8.5, tear index of 6.7 mN*m2/g, brightness of 87.0% GE, and average fiber length and width of 0.97 mm and 23 μm, respectively.
