Chemical Mechanical Pulp In Paper Industry
Chemical mechanical pulp (CMP) has a very broad application prospect, which is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
Market demand growth: With the steady growth of global demand for paper and paperboard, mechanical pulping, as one of the important raw materials for the papermaking industry, has also shown a steady growth trend in market demand. The improvement of environmental awareness and the implementation of sustainable development strategies have further promoted the development and application of mechanical pulping technology1.
Technological progress: The current technical focus is on improving the production efficiency and quality of mechanical pulping while reducing production costs and energy consumption. The application of digitalization, automation and intelligent technology makes the mechanical pulping production process more precise, efficient and environmentally friendly. In addition, the research and development and application of new materials have also brought new development opportunities for mechanical pulping1.
Policy support: Governments of various countries have introduced relevant policies to encourage the adoption of environmentally friendly and sustainable production methods and promote the green development of mechanical pulping technology. This provides a good policy environment for the application of chemical mechanical pulp1.
Wide application areas: Chemical mechanical pulp is widely used in the production of various paper types due to its high bulk, high opacity and good stiffness. For example, it can be used to produce newsprint, cultural paper, multi-layer paperboard, household paper, etc. In newsprint production, chemical mechanical pulp can reduce production costs while ensuring the strength and whiteness of paper; in cultural paper, chemical mechanical pulp can improve the uniformity and softness of paper; in multi-layer paperboard, chemical mechanical pulp can increase the bulk and stiffness of paper 23.
Replacing traditional chemical pulp: The strength and optical properties of chemical mechanical pulp have reached or are close to the quality level of traditional chemical pulp. At the same time, it also has bulk and opacity that traditional chemical pulp cannot match, which can give paper and paperboard good stiffness, printing performance and liquid absorption performance. This allows chemical mechanical pulp to replace part of chemical pulp and be used in the production of almost all high-end paper and paperboard products 4.
In summary, the application prospects of chemical mechanical pulp are very broad, with stable growth in market demand, continuous technological progress, a good policy environment, and outstanding performance in multiple application fields, with high application value and development potential.
