Abstract

Summary Pulping of whole jute plant is done by sodium hydroxide and ethylenediamine (EDA) or monoethanolamine (MEA) within 1 hour of cooking. The pulp yield is considerably higher than for the control soda and kraft pulps. Pulps obtained are better in physical properties as compared to kraft and soda pulps. The apparent density of soda-EDA pulps decreases with the increase of EDA in the soda liquor whereas the apparent density of soda-MEA pulps increases with the increase of MEA in soda liquor.
