Abstract
Abstract This chapter discusses the application of hemp in paper production. The composition of hemp as well as the pulping, refining and manufacturing processes are described. The use of hemp in papermaking is focused mainly on cigarette paper production because its long and resistant fibres allow the manufacture of thin paper. The whole hemp production is devoted to this use, as the whole hemp plant can be considered for pulp production, generating long and short fibres, which can be used mixed or separate. The application of long hemp fibres in tissue paper increases wet resistance, improving the quality of such products.
