were more degraded on the outside of the fiber than were kraft pulps [5]. This
hypothesis was supported by Luce, who developed the method of “chemical pulping”
to study the radial distribution of different properties across the cell wall [6].
According to his results, the molecular weight of the polysaccharides of the kraft
Pulp was uniform throughout the fiber wall, while in the sulfite pulp it was low at
The outermost layers and increased towards the inner layers. The significantly
Pulp Properties and Applications
Lower molecular weight of the residual hemicellulose fraction in sulfite as compared
to kraft pulps has been also pointed out by Jayme and Koppen [7]. It can be
Concluded that (acid) sulfite cooking liquor penetrates through the pits into the
Porous middle lamella where delignification proceeds from the primary wall. The
Degradation reaction involving both lignin and carbohydrates thus proceeds from
The outer to the inner cell wall layers, and this results in a broad molecular weight
Distribution of the polysaccharide fraction. In contrast, alkaline cooking conditions
Promote rather uniform pulping reactions due to the high swelling properties.
Hamilton and Thompson have studied the main differences in the carbohydrate
Constituents of wood celluloses prepared by the sulfite and kraft pulping
processes [8]. According to their findings, xylan from hardwoods is converted to
Low molecular-weight 4-O-methylglucuronoxylan by the acid sulfite pulping procedure,
And to a rather high molecular-weight xylan with a low number of uronic
Acid side chains. The glycosidic bond between uronic acid and the xylan backbone
Is particularly sensitive to alkaline cleavage. The decrease in uronic acid content
Results in a drastic decrease in the solubility of the xylan in aqueous alkaline solutions.
This leads to the well-known phenomenon of xylan reprecipitation onto the
Surface of pulp fibers during the final kraft cooking phase, as demonstrated by
Yllner-Enstrom when treating a mixture of cotton linters and xylan extracted from
birch at kraft cooking conditions [9,10]. The significantly higher enrichment of
Xylan in the surface layers of kraft pulps as compared to sulfite pulps has been
Confirmed by Dahlmann and Sjoberg, who applied an enzymatic peeling technique
To characterize carbohydrate composition across the cell wall layers of both
softwood and hardwood pulp fibers [11].
When examining the properties of paper pulps, sulfite and kraft pulps differ in
