Abstract

In this research, chips of kiwi residues from western Mazandaran (Tonkabon region) were randomly chosen and its kraft pulp was prepared with yield of 53% for 105 minutes. The kraft liner handsheets were prepared from both kiwi and Chooka Mill kraft pulps (control sample), first in a separate and second, in mixed way. Then, their optical and mechanical properties were compared according to TAPPI standard test methods. Results showed that the highest tear strength and cobb 60 and the lowest breaking length, burst and CMT values were in the handsheets obtained from pure kiwi kraft pulp. The handsheets’ properties increased in the samples prepared from mixed pulps. In general, the highest values of breaking length, burst strength, tear strength, cobb 60, brightness and RCT were observed in the handsheets prepared from mixed 10-30% kiwi kraft pulp and mill kraft pulp. The results also pointed out that the above mentioned strengths could be improved by adding 10-30% of kiwi kraft pulp to 30-70% mill kraft pulp replaces part of mill kraft pulp, but it is not possible for pure kiwi kraft pulp.
