Abstract
Summary Eucalyptus globulus wood samples were delignified in two-stage treatments carried out in media made up of formic acid, water and hydrogen peroxide under selected operational conditions. The pulps were subjected to Totally Chlorine Free (TCF) bleaching sequences. Alkaline treatments, oxygen delignification, ozone stages and treatments with peroxyacids were assayed in order to reach the target values for dissolving pulps. Under the best conditions, a fully bleached pulp (91.6% ISO brightness) with SCAN viscosity of 649 ml/g and favourable molar mass distribution was obtained.
